Hot to for Alternator Removal and Replacement? - Mk2 Ph2 1.6

[samg1988]

So my alternator decided to blow itself to bits tonight. The mechanism has failed and the belt is already loose.

After doing some reading I need to disconnect the battery, then remove the headlight and slam panel if I can. Will this give me enough room to unbolt it and remove it?
I've not taken one off before so any guides or advice is helpful.

I ended up removing the front bumper to get the old one out. The pulley had come out and snapped a little bit on the edge. I'm wondering if it would be easier to replace the pulley than get a new alternator?

No idea mate but I do have a spare altenator ill do cheap as its taking up space in my shed lol

Thanks chapster but I already have something sorted.

Does anyone have access to a guide that shows how the belt should go and how to tighten it etc? This is the first time I've fitted one up.

I can get you one from Renault Diolagys I think if you want me to try. Just need the first 8 digits of your VIN

I don't have a VIN number to hand, but its a MK2 PH2 1.6. Even if someone has a diagram of the way the belts go round the pulleys it would be a start. Then I just need to know how to get it to the right tension?

Do you know what Engine model it is? like I have a 1.2 and its a D7F engine

Actually here you go (page 149)

Im TOTALLY stuck... .

I got the alternator and a new belt. Now I can't figure out what I need to loosen to get it back on there.
I found this diagram which seems to make sense for the way my belt should go.

The thing I can assume to be the tensioner is held on with 2x13 mm bolts. It might be an auto tensioner?
Do I just remove this completely then try my best to get it back on once the alternator is back in place? Or do I try and lever up the alternator with the belt still on the pulley to try and bolt that on instead?

This is what the tensioner looks like...

Thanks Nick but I think thats a different engine to mine. I have a 2002 Mk2 Ph2 1.6. From what I gather its a K4M engine with aircon?

 

[Chapster5]

Ive put the K4M with Aircon into renault Diolagys and it brings up the same document for the Altenator mate? Do you know the Vehicle Type?

like mine a CB0A

Nick

 

[samg1988]

Vin number is VE1CB1D0F25916817

That first E might be an F.

Does this help?

 

[Chapster5]

CB1D is your vehicle type,

Its still opening that same document though matey. The only other Alternator documents are how to take the pulley off the alternator and part codes?

Nick


Google comes up with this if its any good

 

[samg1988]

My alternator mounts perpendicular to that. Its exactly like that crappy diagram I posted.

I couldnt figure this out for the life of me.

 

[Chapster5]

I am stumped matey lol unfortunately maybe someone with better knowledge can step in now

Sorry

Nick
