I hate relying on someone else to fix my jeep. You explained it so well, i can do it myself. BTW, I'm a female that hates getting ripped off by mechanics. Tyvm
I have 2006 jeep commander and know nothing about cars. I barely learned how to unplug the battery 🙂 I'm just browsing videos on this brand to make sure I know before something happens. Homework homework, your video is clear, straight to the point. So simple. Let's go!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the walkthrough Wimberley! very informative and easy to understand. I am a big fan of my Commander and hope to keep it running for Manny years to come. Props!
@@WorkingWithWimberley It all worked out well. I got a new Alternator at Autozone. about 200$. It was easy to take out and the only issue I had was one of the bolts broke. Fortunately it broke in a place that was easy to remove it. So I lucked out and it was done in about an hour Max. Thanks again Dude, it's running like a Champ again.
No god bless you sir. And thank you for such a great video. I've tried to follow so many other videos for my 2006 Jeep Commander but they were not well videoed/documented. Yours is the best.
Awesome video! Clear and concise with all the sockets named and listed that are needed. Wish all auto "how to" videos were as well done. Really appreciate this and will check back with your videos when needed in the future. Thank you Sir!
Thank you for this very clear and concise video, worked perfectly! My 13mil bolt stripped and that was a job in itself but I got it. I appreciate you taking the time to show us how to do it. Peace!
i did one on mines like 3 years and just did it again this morning. had to skim through real quick cause i thought i missed a alternator bolt, and then i couldn’t remember if i had to take the damn air filter cabin off. 3:25 mark got me hype haha
Thank you thank you for this video as a women I never thought I could do it and after watching this video I was able to fr fr so great full for your clear direction
I have a 2007 Jeep Commander that won't start, which I was told is the alternator. I also was told next to the alternator the piece isn't turning, but I don't know the name of it. I was told its call the pully. do you know what the part is next to the alternator on the left hand side?
Thank you so much. We actually thought that this would be harder. This video is quite concise and easy to understand and follow. Question. After you removed the 13 mm bolt, it looked like there you were doing some sort of prying activity around the alternator. Was I mistaken?
Yes. Around the 3:25 mark if you read the text on the screen, I describe that I’m prying out the alternator. Even though all the bolts were out, it was wedged in so I pried it out.
It could possibly be the alternator. Here’s an article about some things to look for: www.firestonecompleteautocare.com/blog/maintenance/signs-of-a-bad-alternator/#

Sweet video, thanks for saving me like $300 in shop labor!

How how do you know if the belt is tight enough or when it's tight enough
@@Doomguy232 The tensioner is spring loaded. That’s what keeps the belt tight. You don’t tighten the belt, the tensioner tightens the belt.

Fast and easy (enough)! Thanks for a great video that is to the point, concise without so much talking!
You’re welcome! That’s my thing, straight to the point! No stories lol.
Great video. Straight forward and great camera work. I’ll be attacking this job later today.
Awesome! This job wasn’t bad at all. I have another alternator video out tomorrow on the LT1 engine.

You saved my life with the best video, simple, fast and to the point! Noiceee got my old one out with ease!!
Wow, thanks for the compliment! That’s the first time anyone has said I saved their life! 😂👍🏽👌🏽 I’m super glad the video helped!

@@WorkingWithWimberley definitely did. my alternator was just tougher to pull out but it was all the way undone tho. now to get my core money back
Really helped me with my 2010 jeep commander, thank you!!!

I’m not 100% sure but I would guess it’s one of two things. Either it’s the idler pulley or it the tensioner pulley.
Thank you.
You’re welcome!
One of the more helpful videos

Seems easy enough. Getting ready to do it myself. Great video.

Fantastic video. Well explained, clear footage. Thanks a ton!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
I just did this in autozone parking lot thanks for the video I am not a mechanic
That’s the type of stuff I love to hear! That’s why I make these videos. I’m glad it worked out!
Thank have you experience in your jeep commander with the dash board lights coming on and staying on ?
Unfortunately I do not. This was a friends car. I did the alternator and replaced a headlight bulb. That’s all I’ve done on the commander.
Thanks Mr. Wimberley!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Articulate and simple! Great guide!
Thanks!! I appreciate the compliment!

Hello I got a hemi and the battery light flashes and vehicle turns of do you think it’s the alternator the problem?
It could possibly be the alternator. Here’s an article about some things to look for: www.firestonecompleteautocare.com/blog/maintenance/signs-of-a-bad-alternator/#
Great instructions!
Thanks! I’m glad the video helped!
Is the hemi version in same location under plastic motor cover?
I’m not sure. I haven’t worked on the hemi, just the V6.
How do you know if you tightened the belt enough or if you
The tensioner is spring loaded. That’s what keeps the belt tight. You don’t tighten the belt, the tensioner tightens the belt.
Great video! Thank you!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Bro just saved me like $300 with this vid
That’s exactly why I make these videos! I’m glad it helped!!! 🙌🏽
Do you the OEM part number?
Unfortunately I don’t. The owner bought the new alternator before I arrived.
Thanks for your help
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
I have all the bolts out and everything unplugged but can’t get the alternator out. I can move it but it won’t come out
I had to pry mine out as well. It wouldn’t simply slide out. You can see me prying at 3:22
Thank you!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
So good thank you so much

Having issues with relieving tensioner
It won’t move even with a breaker bar?

Cant do this on a new jeep so sad.

Job well done!
