GENERATOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF, L3]

Warning

• When the battery cables are connected, touching the vehicle body with generator terminal B will generate sparks. This can cause personal injury, fire, and damage to the electrical components. Always disconnect the battery negative cable before performing the following operation.

Caution

• The generator can be damaged by the heat from the exhaust manifold. Make sure the generator duct and the generator heat insulator are installed securely.

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

2. Remove the under cover.

3. Remove the drive belt. (See DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT [L8, LF, L3].)

4. Remove the joint shaft. (R.H.D.) (See JOINT SHAFT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF, L3, MZR-CD (RF Turbo)].)

5. Remove in the order indicated in the table.

6. Install in the reverse order of removal.

Generator and Generator Heat Insulator Removal Note

1. Remove the generator and generator heat insulator together from the engine, and position them in the engine compartment in a location where no part can be damaged. (L.H.D.)

2. Remove the generator heat insulator from the generator. (L.H.D.)

3. Remove the generator from above the engine compartment. (L.H.D.)

4. Remove the generator and generator heat insulator together from below the engine compartment. (R.H.D.)

Generator and Generator Heat Insulator Installation Note

1. From above the engine compartment, set the generator down inside the engine compartment in a position where no part can be damaged. (L.H.D.)

2. Install the generator heat insulator to the generator. (L.H.D.)

3. Install the generator and generator heat insulator together to the engine. (L.H.D.)

4. Install the generator and generator heat insulator together to the engine from below the engine compartment. (R.H.D.)

5. Tighten bolt A temporarily.

6. Tighten bolt B, C to the specified tightening torque.

7. Tighten bolt A to the specified tightening torque.
