• Q: How to service and repair the alternator on 2009 Lincoln Town Car?

  A: Start service and repair of the alternator by disconnecting the battery first. Start by taking out the nut and engine cover while you should tighten the replacement nut to 10 Nm (89 lb-in). The accessory drive belt tensioner requires a clockwise rotation for the alternator repair operation. After rotation set the accessory drive belt aside. Disconnect the generator electrical connector and remove the nut while placing the generator B+ terminal to the side then re-install by tightening it to 12 Nm (106 lb-in). The generator bracket can be detached after removing its harness pushpin and its 4 securing bolts must be tightened to 10 Nm (89 lb-in) during reinstallation. You can uninstall the generator by first loosening the two bolts and then reinstalling it while tightening them to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft). The installation process ends with the execution of backward steps for removal.
