    What they don't tell you is to remove upper passenger side engine mount.

      I’m currently changing the alternator out of my 2017 escape. I’m trying to see if I can get the alternator out without removing the engine mount as I don’t have a Jack to hold it up

    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 Год назад

      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...

      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 Год назад

      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.
