  Q: How to replace the alternator on Chevrolet Traverse?

  A: Altering the Alternator begins by cutting off the negative cable from the battery. Start by dismantling both the Drive Belt then moving onto the fuel injector sight shield. Start by disconnecting the upper radiator support clamp bolt that holds the a/c liquid line in place along with the engine mount strut bracket. Use a wrench to disconnect reservoir bolts before moving the recovery apparatus aside. Shift the cable boot of the battery positive junction block to perform a battery positive junction block cable to generator nut and terminal removal from the generator stud. Detach the electrical connector from the engine wiring harness that connects to the generator and remove the hose clip from the power steering reservoir bracket. Begin by relaxing the idler pulley bolt then push the pulley to its maximum extent before you can remove the generator bolts. Detach both the a/c compressor/evaporator hose bracket and power steering fluid reservoir hose clip bracket from the generator. First remove the generator together with the idler pulley from the vehicle where you can separate the idler pulley from the generator. Begin by screwing the idler pulley to the generator unit prior to reinstalling the assembly inside the vehicle. Fasten the power steering fluid reservoir hose clip bracket and the a/c compressor/evaporator hose bracket to the generator bolts following a specific sequence where torque reaches 50 nm (37 lb ft). Install the power steering reservoir inlet hose clip before connecting the engine wiring harness electrical connector to the generator and attaching the battery positive junction block cable terminal and securing its nut with 22 nm (16 lb ft) torque. Secure the battery positive junction block cable boot by placing it over the stud before installing the coolant recovery reservoir tabs into the upper radiator support using bolts tightened to 5 nm (44 lb in). Complete the installation phase by attaching the a/c liquid line clamp bolt to the upper radiator support and adding the engine mount strut bracket and fuel injector sight shield and Drive Belt. The last step is to connect the negative Battery Cable.
