How do you replace the alternator on a Ford Escape?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

first remove positive battery cable from battery. Then remove front passenger tire, then remove strut and hub, then remove cv axle undo two mounting bolts from bottom, once this is done access to three mounting bracket bolts. to remove mounting bracket then slide alternator btwn frame and engine and replace, have fun this takes avg 4-5 hours!

i found out that if you take out the oil filter u can get to the bolts with easy access. it beats taking of the drive shaft. once the bracket is off you can take it out from the top. it would be easier if you unbolt the tension assembly. it took me about 2 hours to do all this and put back together. $20 extra bucks for the oil beats the extra hours i would have to put into working on the car. have fun :)

OOOOOOOORRRRRRRRR,,,,,,,,

It is possible to remove it from the top of the engine. I know this becasue i just accomplished this in under 3 hours. Start to finish with a coffee break in between. If you want to know exactly how i did it feel free to email me atomic_aura@hotmail.com 03 ford escape v6

Why won't the key come out of the ignition if the P for Park is not illuminated on the dash of an automatic 2005 Ford Escape?

Try relieving the tension on the steering wheel when it locked.

The steering wheel isn't locked. It is like the car doesn't know it is in park. The "R" lights up when it is in reverse as does all the "N" in neutral and so on, but not when it is in "P" park,

The linkage from shifter to transmission needs to be adjusted!

Check all your fuses I blew a fuse while adjusting my trailer wiring and got back in to find I could shift into park! Took AAA 15 minutes to figure out I blew a fuse. If you depress the brake peddle if the tail ligths don't lite you've blown a fuse their located near the drives side door under the dash. Hope this helps!

Where is the block heater cord on a 2000 Pontiac Bonneville?

Mine was zip-tied and stuck behind one of the headlights. It seems that it was never used so I would check there first. I found it changing a bulb. Didn't know what it was at first since I'm still young & dumb.

Where is the starter on 1999 Town and Country limited van?

I just found this out this evening! It is located on the front of the engine near where the engine and transmission come together. It is under what I believed to be the exhaust manifold.

Mechanic told your wife that she broke both front axels on her 1989 civic dx is this possible on a front wheel drive?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Possible yes, probable no. What is most likely happened is he told her the CV boots in both front axles are torn/broke/exposed. This is easily identifiable by excessive grease on the inside of your front rims if it's the outer CV boots. The best solution is to have the axle replaced, but a less costly option is to have the boot replaced. The labor hours are the same but parts cost are cheaper. The con of doing a CV boot replacement is that you don't know what dirt has gotten into the CV joint that could cause failure down the road. Even if they clean the CV joint there is no way of seeing how badly damaged the bearings in the CV joint are. So axle replacement is more expensive but also offers more peace of mind. hope that helps

How do you replace the spark plugs on a Ford contour V6?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Luckily, all spark plugs are available without removing the intake manifold. Tools you will need are:

ratchet set6"-9" extention 3/8" drive (6" with an added 3" drive will work just as good)sparkplug socket

First start out by removing the black plastic cover over the front intake manifold, there are three cap screws that you must remove using your ratchet set. This will expose three of the six spark plugs and respective wires.

Next, follow the spark plug wires back to where they attach to the coilpack, note the other three spark plug locations just under and forward of this coilpack, there are your other three spark plugs.

It should be pretty much self explanitory from here on out, but just remember it is easiest to do one wire and plug at a time, so as to match up the wire with the correct size and avoid dealing with the possibility of matching up the coilpack with the wrong spark plug, then your car will definitely not want to run.

Hope this helps, let me know if you need more help.

What is fuse for 2005 ford escape auxiliary power point?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You said,

F14 in the engine compartment fuse box - also referred to as "PWR 1"

isn't that nice of Ford not to make it clear in the manual?

Thanks for the answer, however,

It got me close, but actually on my 2005 Escape it is fuse F12. In my manual, it labels to the console device in the picture as the "auxiliary power source". Makes sense. In the fuse block diagram (in this same manual), they label fuse F12 "power point". I thought that was a Microsoft product. ;-) Those wacky Ford folks... Anyway, I could see the fuse was blown when I removed it, so problem solved.

Why would dashboard brake warning light stay lit on 1999 Altima even though master cylinder fluid level is full?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That light may indicate there is a problem with your ABS system. I do not own an Altima but some dashes have an ABS light and some don't. If yours has an ABS light in the dash then please disregard my reply. The only other reason a brake light may be on is if the piston in the master cylinder goes down too far and hits an electrical conection that tells you you may have fluid loss such as a caliper leaking but you said the brake fluid is full unless your master cylinder is failing

because the light is the indicator that the transmission has locked into place, if it doesnt then the transmission will give you hell...

Why does the over drive off light flashes in your 95 Lincoln town car?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Had it happen on mine, right before the shifting to 2nd gear went out. I think the trans is setup to flash the OD light as an indication of some troubles.

ISTR the transmission shop owner saying one could tell by when the flashing occurred, or maybe the sequence of flashing, as to what the error was.

In my case I had about 110,000 miles on the trans...shop said his pickup (with same trans) also went out the same way at around 115,000 miles.

I ended up with a very expensive rebuild, but the shop made some major changes (like by putting in a sprag unit for 2nd gear control, revalving shift points, etc.) and the car now runs with seemingly sharper shifts and more power transmitted.

Good luck! (how many miles on your trans? if between 100K and 120K, you might have same problem...it's pretty common.)
