Thanks to you and your video, I noticed that the Shop I took my car to have the alternator replaced, routed my serpentine belt incorrectly! I was having numerous problems afterwards ranging from poor charging to poor airflow from my A/C, Fan, and Defroster settings... Since changing it back to proper position, no more problems whatsoever! Maybe coincidence but how funny that everything is back to normal just by changing the routing of a belt! Thanks again and keep on posting!

Thanks for the video. Used it to replace my alternator. One hack I learned. For the alternator belt tightening screw, I used a rubber band to hold the bolt to the apparatus and the adjusting screw. It held all in place so I could hold it by adjusting screw without it rotating.

Wow! Thank you for posting this video, especially the caveat to disconnect the battery. I don't want to imagine the spark show if one skipped that step. I appreciate all the socket sizes to organize the tools needed before starting. In my opinion, the part which challenged my patience most was putting the belt back on. Align belt on the crankshaft pulley, then while sliding under the timing indicator and the counter pulley, it would slip off the water pump. Push it onto the water pump and it falls off the crank, and so on and so on. Thank you again for the excellent demonstration!!!

Question. I have a Hyundai Elantra same year as you feature in a lot of your videos. You are extremely helpful!! I have used your videos to fix my Hyundai a number of times now. Thank you. Question-My Hyundai now has the battery indicator light and EPS light coming on at same time? What could that be??? I just changed out O2 sensor and crank position sensor 2 days ago and of course had battery disconnected while doing the work. Would a bad alternator cause both those lights to come on?

So is the voltage regulator considered external on this specific alternator? I have a 2012 Elantra and am guessing the engine layout is nearly identical to this one. Car is currently in the shop to get the alternator replaced entirely but I have a feeling it’s just the voltage regulator that needs replacing based on recent electrical issues.

I have a question I have a 2016 Hyundai Elantra SE 1.8 L. The alternator that’s on my vehicles is 150 amp stock alternator but all the alternators that I can get from the auto parts store is 90 amp so what’s the issue? Is it fine that I put a 90 amp on my car even though it has 150 amp stock alternator on it.

I have a 2013 Hyundai Elantra Limited. The alternator is going bad. The cat is hesitating when I drive or Idle and for the first time it had trouble starting. Auto Zone put their machine on it and said it was the alternator showing failed. So I called the dealership and they told me they charge $1000 to replace. Yikes! Auto Zone has the new alternator for $385.00. I will have to do the work myself. This video is helpful! Wish me luck!

I know it's somewhere underneath the dashboard but I'm not sure exactly where and also how to replace it. It's a 2012 Hyundai Elantra GLS 1.8 engine do you suppose you could do a video on replacing it? Thanks so much.

I don't know how other videos are ahead of you most the ones I've seen really don't really give a visual of the part that you're looking at they show hands in there but all you can see is the hands I actually see the product the placement the bolts and how to pull them the one thing I don't get out of your video then I'm looking for but isn't your main thing is they tensioner brace assembly I would like a video more on that because mine wasn't put on properly when I bought the car and I've run into a bunch of issues recently including the fact that I had to buy the parts twice because I misplaced the first set and the original set that came with the car just came off and probably went on the road somewhere

Guys I need big help on my 2012 Elantra. I replaced my alternator 3 times in past 2 weeks. Right now the problem is the with the last alternator replaced, during idle there is a weird vibration that goes on and off and I believe it is coming from alternator. Also at idle the battery voltage is 12.5V - 12.6V and is not charimg up to over 14V but when I revv up to 2000rpm it starts to charge and the voltage goes up to 14.5V

After replacing the alternator and battery my car died on me while driving. The battery was completely drained which leads me to believe that the alternator was not charging. I changed the battery and had it checked by a mechanic but he says everything is normal. It's scary it just died on me and wouldn't shift into park was just stuck on neutral and drive. Does anyone have any ideas what this could be?
