The Dodge Nitro Alternator is another critical power generation and regulation machinery because it acts as a charging unit to the vehicle's battery and provides power to the electrical systems whenever the vehicle is in operation. Sited in front of the engine, the alternator uses mechanical energy from the engine to produce electrical energy that is then channeled to parts which include the battery. The alternator uses a rotating magnetic field with a stationary armature and produces AC needed to recharge the battery and the electrical system of the vehicle. This all thanks to it's characteristic that allows precise control of the voltage output of the battery to avoid the two extremes of undercharging and overcharging of all the electrical equipment of a vehicle. Also, high-output alternators can be gotten for different model cars which might have been adjusted or for people with special electrical demands.
Dodge Nitro Alternator Parts and Q&A
- Q: How to Install the Alternator on a 3.7L Engine on Dodge Nitro?A:First, position the generator alongside the 3.7L engine and mount it with the help of three bolts that you tighten as follows: two horizontally at 57 Nm and the third bolt vertically at 40 Nm. Fit the field wire connector into the back of the generator, mount the B+ terminal to the generator stud and tighten the nut to 13 Nm. Put the plastic cover onto the B+ terminal. You should never push the belt down onto the pulley with a screwdriver, since this could rip the synthetic fiber. While installing a serpentine accessory Drive Belt, be sure it is joined correctly to keep the Water Pump from operating in a way that might cause the engine to get hot; the belt routing label in the engine compartment shows you how to do this. Set up the drive belt on the engine following the way it should be routed, adjusted and bolted in place. Connect the last wire from the charger which holds the minus sign, to the battery.
- Q: How to Service and Repair an Alternator on Dodge Nitro?A:Before starting to service or repair the alternator, ensure you have taken away the negative Battery Cable to protect yourself from harm. After that, take off the Drive Belt to avoid forcing it over the edge of the pulley which can harm the synthetic material. Before attaching the serpentine accessory drive belt, confirm it is installed in the correct locations so the Water Pump doesn't turn the wrong way and the engine doesn't overheat. For reference, the belt routing label is inside the engine compartment. When you've removed the drive belt, detach the plastic covering inside the B+ mounting stud and unscrew the B+ terminal mounting nut from the generator top. Push down the tab at the connector of the field wire after removing it, found in the generator's rear section. Remove the top bolt center in the center of the generator from the top mount and unbolt the two screws from each bottom corner for removal.
