1999 Cadillac Deville northstar poss Alernator issue.
My sons car died!!! Before it died the warning said system failing to charge, then he lost his lights and dash. He did manage to make it home but in is in the driveway dead to the day. I am at work right now so I can't look at it. I imagine it is a altornator issue.
1. How hard is it to change out an alternator? 2. Is there a site on the internet that shows how it is done? Thanks in advance. Gumby |

Gumby Of course going back in I used even more caution not to damage the radiator. Had my son hold it from the top with a wire coat hanger while I gently guided it back into place. The hardest part were the rear bolts!!! A good U handle wrench (15mm) helps. It is not as daunting as I thought, very tedious, very frustrating for me as I am not a mech. My son is happy, new alternator 125.00, new belt 30.00, rubbing into my son's face that I saved him 600.00 PRICELESS. |
