Q: How to Install the Alternator and Ensure Proper Belt Routing and Connections on 2010 Jeep Wrangler?
A: First, attach the generator mounting fasteners, 1, 2 and 3 and tighten each to comply with the given torque specifications. Using a screwdriver to press a belt over the pulley rim of a dryer can harm the synthetics in the belt. Guide the serpentine accessory drive belt correctly, as if it drives the water pump backward, it can overheat the engine; use the belt routing label found inside the engine compartment for aid. Then, follow the instructions in the Cooling System to put on the drive belt for the generator. Insert field wire connector 2 in the generator and then fit the B+ terminal over the left generator mounting stud, screwing it in place securely. Attach the plastic cap 1 to the B+ terminal and then put the negative battery cable where it belongs on the battery.
