Cheers buddy!! I used this advice to help me remove my faulty alternator on a 2003 FunCargo, tomorrow I shall try installing a new one. I’ll update my comment if it goes well! Edit- it went well!!!
@@jeremyhood mate!! It more than helped!!! I have just finished replacing the alternator now on it and it seems all good!!! Belt was squeaking like a mad crazy pig for a bit but after tightening that bolt and the others it seems ok! Thank you!! You may have saved me hundreds of dollars!!!
I just replaced my belt, working great now, I did have a problem as my socket was short so my ratchet was hitting the smooth wheel, i wound up getting a socket extender to get clearance and was able to loosen lower bolt. Thanks again, very helpful video.
Hint.... to tighten...notice there is a M8mm x 1.25 threaded hole midway on the adjuster-arm where the alternator top 12mm bolt sits ( at timeline 6:50, right next to your screwdriver). Put a 8mm x 1.25 hex bolt on from the left side ( as you view the car from the front) ...and use THAT as a leverage point.
On my 2008 Yaris 1.3VVT-i the alternator is behind the engine, and the belt goes around the engine mount. Took I while to find the third bolt holding the engine mount to the engine - it's on the bottom side.
thanks helpful. I'm trying to get that lower bolt rn but can't unscrew it. My sockets too short so breaker bar runs into things been trying all day. Where did you get that 1+ inch socket?
Sorry for the very late delay! Google stopped emailing me for comments. I'll have to check my settings and all. It came in a set from Harbor Freight Tools. I imagine any anti parts or hardware store would have one.
It's this one from Amazon: Perrycraft DS3245-B DynaSport 32" Wide x 45" Long Drill-in Installation Roof Rack (Black Finish) a.co/d/dSvn71r I beefed up the hardware, though. Instead of just screwing in from the top, I put stainless steel bolts all the way through the roof with large washers, lock washers, and nuts.
I've only seen 1 belt in it, but I'm not sure. I checked online and there only seems to be the 1 belt. There is also a timing chain, but I doubt it would squeal like a belt.
Okay but how do you actually do it because the freaking belt won't come over the alternator pulley. It's the right size belt but there just isn't enough slack to get over the pulley. God I wanna die rn
Did you loosen the 2 bolts that hold the alternator in place and push it back toward the back of the car (away from you as you're standing under the hood)? I talk about it at around 1:30 to 2:30. I hope that helps.
I've watched probably thousands of videos of how to do all sorts of things and have never made a comment.. This one was one and done 👍 thanks!
That's awesome, Jordan. Thank you!
Super helpful and easy to follow. Just successfully changed my belt for the first time on my own. 🤗
Thank you for sharing a great video clip on how to install an alternator belt!
Thank you for your kind words.
Love how you explain everything thank you.
Thank you, Joel. That's very kind of you.

@@jarrodhook That's so cool, Jarrod! I'm happy to help.
Thank you! I just ran into the same problem, all my lights came on and the belt is gone. I'll have to go get a replacement and put one on!

Ahh, good point! Thank you.

Wow! That's a pain. I'm sorry you had to deal with that, but glad you figured it out.
thanks helpful.

deep socket
I have the same issue!!what is the size of the fan belt cause i dont have any idea
Sorry, I don't know. An auto parts store should know by the year, make, and model.
Thanks!
Thank you good
What roof rack system is that?!
It's this one from Amazon:

I beefed up the hardware, though. Instead of just screwing in from the top, I put stainless steel bolts all the way through the roof with large washers, lock washers, and nuts.
Pls I need repair seat belts Toyota yaris 2008
reply with your email address if you need assistants
I haven't had to repair those seat belts yet. Maybe there are other videos about that on TH-cam. Best of luck.
@@jeremyhood It was not that important because Saud A. didn't reply back.
how many belts have these tipe car?
I've only seen 1 belt in it, but I'm not sure. I checked online and there only seems to be the 1 belt. There is also a timing chain, but I doubt it would squeal like a belt.
@@jeremyhood timing belt not chain
Oh no....

QW
"Several lights came on, but it kept driving normally"---DUH. Those lights aren't for decoration, you pull over when they come on
I did. The "driving normally" was to explain the symptoms more clearly.
take the tire off and go through wheel well
get you hand out of the way
