  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  • Remove the splash gaurd.
  • It has to be removed from underneath the car so jacking up the front end is a good idea as it gives you more room to work.
  • It's located on the passenger side, right next to the catalytic converter.
  • You need to disconnect the plug and bolted on lead going to the starter. Just squeeze the plug and wiggle it out.
  • You will see how it locks onto the starter.
  • The other lead is just a nut. Now take out the two bolts holding the starter on.
  • The top bolt is easy.
  • The bottom bolt has a transmission line running right over top of it and you have to use a wrench making quarter turns to loosen it.
  • It's tight but the starter will slide out between the catalytic converter and the front differential.

SOURCE: removel of altanator on 2001 nissan pathfinder

Disconnect the battery - both positive and negative terminals and remove battery from holder (better access that way). From underneath - remove the plastic shield underneath the front of the car. It is held on by a few bolts. Remove the upper radiator hose (some coolant will drain out). Also free the cable from the support bracket on the top of the platic fan housing. There is an overflow hose that is also clipped to the fan housing unlcip the hose and move it out of the way. From underneath, push in on the clips and the lower half of the fan housing will come out of the bottom. From the top - remove the two bolts holding the upper part of the fan housing and you should be able to work it out from the top. You should now have better visibility and access to the alternator. Loosen the belt tensioner (from below) and remove the belt. There are two mounting bolts on the alternator, a long one through the alternator and a second on the "dog ear" of the alternator. Once the alternator is free - you can get at the battery cable post and the other wires. The wiring harness can be removed by pressing in on the locking clip. Most difficult is the wiring harness support bracket. A short 10mm wrench can get to it. The alternator is now free but will have to be manipulated forward so that it sits below the fan. Once there - you can reach down from the top, and pull the alternator into the larger gap between the fan blades. While rotating the fan, bring the alternator around with it to the top and it will come out. To reinstall -- do everything in reverse. I recommend replacing the belt so you don;t have to do this again.
