How do I remove the alternator?

Electrical problem
1999 Toyota Camry 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual 125000 miles

I have replaced three alternators in the last six months. They lasted from several months to less than three weeks. There must be a problem other than just a worn out alternator. What or where should I be looking for the root problem?
Thanks

I have a 1999 Toyota camry and the fuse keeps blowing. It doesn't let me operate any windows and the odometer and everything in that dash does not operate. The strange thing is that it drains my battery completely dead. I also replaced the alternator, but I do not believe that it was effected by the electrical short. Any idea what the problem is and how to fix it. The fuse just keeps blowing when I change it. Mechanics are no help because I have found many have no clue about electrical issues.

Gauges stopped working and then the altenator went dead. I replaced the altenator, fuses, and some wires. Mechanic told me the reason that happened was because I have a short in the speedometer cluster and it will need to get replaced or the altenator will go dead again? Please advise me what to do?

My car was working fine, but couple days ago it stopped charging the battery. I decided it was the alternator or the battery so I got them checked. They both checked good at the autoparts. I decided to buy a new alternator, ad installed it. It still doesnt charge the battery and the car looses power and eventually turns off. If it has a brand new alternator, and the battery is in new conditions also, what can be causing the car no to charge or power up the engine with the alternator? Please help me.

Hi all. I am having a problem with my car. At first, when I tried to start it, no luck. Figured it was just a weak battery. I then had it jump started. It help up for the day.

After that, I bought a brand new battery. It stared the car fine for a month. After that, it drained overnight.

I then figured it was a bad alternator. Got that replaced, and then up to this point, the new alternator is not even able to keep the car running! Basically the car would be running off of the battery's charge, and shut down after draining it. A running engine should not need a battery at all, but in my case, it pulls juice from the battery.

My conclusion is that the something is keeping the alternator from flowing it's generated power to keep the engine running.

What could it be? Wire problems? Fuse? Rotor/field coil (whatever that is)?

Please help. I am so lost.

How do you do that? Where do I start? I have a multimeter.

Okay, I check the alternator today. It does put out power. I am getting a reading 0f 11.90-12 volts, at the alternators terminal.

So while spinning, the laternator is producing power. Only problem is that it is not transferring the power to keep the engine running via the distributor. Only the battery is powering the distributor while engine is running.

I checked fuses. Nothing blown.

So besides bad cables, what else could be the problem?

And BTW, if the battery terminals where to be corroded/bad, then how would that impair the alternator's ability to power the engine distributor? Would it just impair the ability to charge the battery?

My problem is that the alternator on its own won't power the distributor to keep the engine running. It's ability to charge up the battery is just a side-effect I believe. If alternator cannot get power to keep engine running, it won't be able to charge battery reguardless. Right?

Thanks for all the info so far everyone.

So any ideas?

Hey I have a 2000 Toyota camry with 81000 miles on it and I have gotten subwoofers put in that run @ 600 watts max and new front and back speakers that run at a relatively low power I'm not very sure what they run at and I just got a new head unit installed and I tunes my subwoofers and noticed that my lights dim whenever the sound is at a high volume, and I was wondering if it's possible to run 2 alternators on it or to just get a capacitor. Or just get a new alternator, but what should I do?

I think your alt puts out 80amps, but you can buy a high performance amp for it. I didnt see any at advanced's wab site, but you can call the store. You are looking to get one with around 120-130 amps, but im no expert in this field so talk to the pros at advanced and see if this will effect your battery at all, but im positive it will not. Here is a site with a 130amp alt for your car, but there was no place to enter in v6 and im not sure if the bolt up is the same for 4c and v6. Let me know what you think, what you decide, and how it goes please

Sorry, here is a that site with the alt selected, but it will do you no good because it is for the 4c, you will have to ask advanced if the alts are the same for the will offer 180 amps at 1600 rms it has manufacture numbers on it that it will replace, just find yours out. And for this big boy it does say some modification is need for the battery cable, here is the wording copied and pasted " A 2 gauge (or better) power cable required to complete your upgrade. The power cable mounted between the Battery Positive and Alternator charge post is needed as an additional path for current for the best battery maintenance during higher than normal load times. Use an inline fuse in this additional power cable mounted closer to the battery side. This picture (not representative of the correct car) shows a 4 Gauge Power Cable Upgrade, but for this Alternator You will need a 2 gauge or larger with 150 Amp inline fuse. "

Hi guys

My friend replaced the alternator on my daughters car and it ran fine for the first day. On the second day it left her stranded. We noticed that one of the wires of the alternator was left hanging and the wires were burned with the heat. Now we are wondering what the name of this piece is and if it can be bought or replaced? Thank you for your help.
