You don't actually remove it. It just makes it easier to get to the alternator from the top. Just remove the thre bolts from the power stering bracket and swing it away to the left. Leave the hoses connected. You should then have a clear view of the alternator from the top. The three bolts go into the block of the engine.

 

99.9% its the alternator.. you might need to recharge your battery too because its probably drained..

 

Here's a quick easy test.

Start the car (whatever it takes .. jump it or charge the battery or w/e)
With the car running, disconnect the battery

If the car stays running, the battery is bad
If the car dies, the alternator is bad

 

thats been proven to kill the alternator mang...

 

^^So I guess a battery that doesn't function would kill the alternator too? That makes no sense. When the car is running, the alternator is giving it power, the only function the battery serves is to hold a charge so that the car is able to start. People have been doing this simple test forever to find out if their alt is bad or not. The only thing bad about this is that it doesn't take much to KEEP the car running, so if your alternator is weak, but still working somewhat, this won't work. Although, after reading your thread it seems like your alternator has already gone on you.

 

yes a dead battery can actually take a alternator with it

and vice versa

 

the fact that the battery light is on is a give away.. means theres a charging problem.. its the alternator..
the light doesnt come on if its a bad battery
