How do you change the alternator for a 2002 Honda Civic EX without having to go to a mechanic?
Its not a complicated job if you are mechanically inclined, just extremely tedious. I suggest getting a manual to guide you through the process: http://www.repairmanual.com/catalog/CH30203 You can also post questions to a civc owners forum: http://www.hondacarforum.com/ good luck! I went to my mechanic and got a printout. Very difficult in this vehicle. Must take off the power steering unit... then go thru the wheel well to adjust the belts properly. Learned a lesson here. I started up... and the alternator belt was screaming. I gave up tightening it... and drove home. By the time I got there it stopped. It appears you should fully recharge the battery before you get it going. It was screaming because the alternator was working hard to put a charge back into the battery.
