The alternator belt on a 1998 Dodge Neon is adjusted by loosening the retaining bolts and applying pressure to the side of the alternator with a pry bar. With the belt tight, the alternator can then be bolted down.
Yes, there is a diagram for a 1995 Dodge Spirit Serpentine Belt Diagram. It is found in the maintenance manual to the car.
If it's the alternator belt, loosen the bolts holding the alternator in place, then use something like a hammer handle to pry the alternator away from the engine which will tighten the belt. Hold the pressure on the alternator while tightening the bolts. This is a general procedure, not specific to 1996 dodge.
There is a bolt on the lower bracket for the Alternator but that doesnt mean its whats causing the belt to screech... It could be dirt, a worn belt or a worn pulley. Take some greese, vasaline or anything like that, put it on the belt itself or if you wish the pulley and see if that helps, it worked great for my spirit cause i didnt want to replace belt even tho it is a good idea to replace the belt.
It is defective or the alternator belt is loose.
what is the engine size?
Look at the face of the alternator. Below it is a round thing that looks like a dial. Loosen that nut - 15mm...To the right of the alternator - or if you are standing in front of the car -- in front of the alternator, below it -- is a nut on a threaded rod -- 1/2" socket AND a universal adapter because of the extreme angle of this nut.... This is what pushes the alternator up or down.CCW allows pushing the alternator down ( loosen the belt ) -- andCW brings the alternator back up ( tighten belt )StanFarmington CT
The 2000 Dodge Caravan alternator can be changed by removing the alternator belt. Remove the wiring harness from the back of the alternator. Loosen and remove the alternator retaining bolts. Install the new alternator by reversing the process.
depending on the style of belt, on the alternator belt there is an adjustment just below the slider holding the alternator, you just simply tighten it until belt becomes tight.
