    Why Haynes manual sux. My Escape alternator is at the bottom of the engine. You need to remove the axle to get to it.

      Just dismount reservoir and swing over towards drivers side and secure with bungee, no need to remove hoses.

    I have a 2001 Ford Escape and this is not at all where the alternator is placed. You have to remove the right front axle or remove the motor completely

    • @toylips
      @toylips Před rokem

      Yes. Same for my 2007. It's on the very bottom back of the engine. You have to disassemble and remove the drive axle on the right side. I still can't get to the top mounting bolt...

      @tobylmiller Před 8 měsíci

      YES... I do believe they need to adjust the title to reflect the correct applicable model years. I'm getting ready to replace mine... might as well replace the CV joints while I'm at it.

      @cgonedfishing Před rokem

      2.0 alternator is lower, does not seem to go up to get out. I am at a stand still due to one bolt behind the a/c compressor. Once that is out I am going to try and bring it out the inner tire well on passenger side. A/C compressor is loose but man there is not much room for sockets, wish I had stubby box wrenches.
