NOTE: Make sure you also loosen the 14mm nut on the idler pulley next to the Alternator to help loosen Adjustment screw. And make sure to tighten it back up!... That Video clip did not record.
Yes.. that is a MUST !
I had my idler pulley adjust bolt break in half and missing a few parts but I don’t know which ones so I can purchase it to have it repaired
@@jennifercarver1592 ?
Which direction do you turn the idler pulley bolt to loosen it up?
@@jasongeo2 Left. It’s a normal threaded bolt. Good question though! I’ve run into some idler pulley bolts that are reverse thread.
Thank you for doing this. Frankly, I hate going back to the store in the middle of a project. I commend your cool-headed-ness.
Great!~
@@FixingWithPassion good day is this the same set up as a 1998 Nissan Sunny?
Francais svp
Thank you sir. I have been at it for 5 hours searching and fighting to get that power steering belt off. You saved me.
Dude you just saved me a trip to the mechanic. Thank you.
Hell ya!!~~!~!!~!~~ Nice
I’m so happy I came across this video! This is just what I need to fix my belt tomorrow!
I hope you get it fixed ;)
@@FixingWithPassion the bolt on power steering is loose but power steering won't come forward, won't budge😔
Thank you my friend I just purchased at 2002 Nissan Sentra so yes this will help me and your labor was not in vain.
Nice!
I really like how you explain every step need more videos like this
6yrs later and this videos willmhelp me today with my 2005 sentra!✌🏽
Nice~!
@@FixingWithPassion
Did you have to stretch the belt very far. Having an issue getting the bolt to line up for the tension pulley?
Thanks a lot. From Florida
Word!~
My second appreciation... I totally agree, this type of blogger, needs a big big applause...
Nice!
Great video, my the belt on my alternator started squeaking and I want to replace it before something bad happens, thanks a ton!!
Nice!!
Pro tip!! The adjuster bolt for the alternator side is wayyyy more accessible and right in your face from underneath the car
Nice!!
just took all 3 belts off my nissan almera 1.4 thank you very much sir!
Thank you, I bought some new belts and I was never able to get the power steering belt off. Now I know how.
Once I saw my old honda crx slam down in ground rotor without tire where my thigh was 2 seconds before I refused to ever work on a car again without Jack stands or ramps.. that jack you got is quality, but I still don't trust them especially in soft ground.
THANK YOU, NATHAN!
I had watched another RUclips video prior to viewing yours. Unfortunately, the guy didn't mention the 14mm (hidden bolt).
He only said you have to push the power steering pump very hard after backing out the tensioner adjustment screw.
I pushed, and pushed until I was blue in the face. I figured there must be another bolt holding it.
Then I found your video. Voila! THANK YOU!
Same here Joe , other video never mentioned the hidden 14 mm to loosen so the PS pump swings forward to get belt off . Guess that's why he was wrestling with it . 🤔
thank you so much for your video!! I just knew there is another freaking bolt at the bottom of the power steering pump
Yea it's down there!
Thank you, very much. My son just got a his Nissan. Great father and son project.
Yes!~!~!~
🎉 the video was a major help basically held my hand through this confusing belt removal. Now I know how to tackle it for sure. GOD Bless!
Nice!!
..some of those Nissans will make you have more than 1 cold one!! Good Job Nathan!!!...
Thats funny.thats is absolutely the truth.
You just made my job three times easier I've been at it for a boat Two and a half hours And still haven't got the belt off
😲
Thank you man just made this a lot easier.
Nice!!
Thanks brother man actually came in clutch
Nice!
I can NOT figure out how to loosen up this freakin power steering belt what bolt am I supposed to loose. I took that long bolt out and it's not moving at all 🙃
Use a small mirror to look down there and go from there.
its a bitch,i used pry bar...if you haven't got it fixed by now,,,drive it into the ocean...lol
I'm someone that appreciate this video
Nice!!
@@FixingWithPassion okay thank goodness I looked again. I saw the not you added. I have to loosen the idler pulley to be able to loosen the tension screw.
Super helpful! I have a 2002 Nissan Sentra but the belt assembly is basically the same
Nice!!
I am so greatful for this video. Thanks so much for taking the time to make it.🙂
;D
Thank you. I will try to fix my power steering belt tomm. I have changed many belts on older cars without the adjustment screws. Thought maybe I could pop this one but I can't find a good angle to get my screwdrivers wedged.
Let us know if you get it fixed!
Thank you. I got it on. Was good to go. Then the next morning coolant is coming out like 30 seconds after I put it in. Car was not started either. I don't know what happened. It is near the water pump I believe. But why does it happen almost immediately? Gasket or pump itself but the car isn't on. Hose? Sorry I am bugging ya. Just worried cause I can't afford a mechanic.
This worked on my 97 nissan pulsar n15! Cheers mate
Brilliant work! Keep it up!
Thanks so much for this video. It was a tremendous help.
This just saved me hundreds of dollars
Nice!!
Yes I do appreciate this video! Thank you!
Nice!
Thanks man! Video was a big help.
Great!
Very helpful. Thank you
Nice!!
great video! wish i saw this prior to just figuring it out!
Been there man!
Excellent video, right to the job, not much talk. Keep up the good job. Thank you for sharing..
Cool Man!
This video helps me a lot, just a different step in the smaller belt I loose the nut behind the mechanism where the bolt spin only that way I was able to adjust the drive belt...just in case.
Good Tip!!
Nice vid and it definitely clear you know what you are doing but I couldn’t help but to notice the lack of a jack stand when you went under the car. I was a tech for several years and now work as a firefighter and paramedic and man I can tell you first hand it’s not worth it to skimp on the jack stand. It’s not a pretty site when the car falls onto the person either killing them or seriously injuring them. It’s essentially trusting your life with a little dinky jack o-ring! Not trying to be a dick at all I just don’t want you to get hurt or worse and for people watching your video and copying what they saw. Always support the car with a stand. Please!!
True. Going to buy more ;) Thanks!
Harbor freight has a set of jackstands for less than $25!!
@@J_Trask Wal mart. 19.99....
Thanks for such a good and helpful tutorial video.
Nice one, it gave me an idea of what to do. Better to spend 15 minutes on the video rather than an hour under the car trying to workout what's going on.
Thanks. Just changed mine and this video was all I needed. Very helpful.
We appreciate u bro your video helped out alot
;)
Thanks man!
After watching this video. I'm 100% or at least 50% or maybe 20 % that I can put the belt in my Nissan myself while my hubby at work. If, I do it right I'm going be able to go in and have a cold one too. Wish me luck. 53 yr old in Atx.. I
Thankyou so much your a life saver ! Lol very well straight forward video ! Well done sir and than you again ! :)
Nice!!
How were you able to loosen the bolt behind the power steering pump tensioner?
I really appreciate this video
Great video. Thanks bro
Word!~
good video, couldn't have done it without you. if you had not said 8 mm at the end I would have never found the front tensioner nut!
Thanks! Glad you fixed it!
Nice video man no bs straight to the point ! The way it should be thx !
the nut (its a nut)on my tensioner was very loose,luckly it didnt fall off,started my junk up this morn and threw both belts
Nuts are crazy!
I was wondering why I couldn’t loosen the tension on that idler pulley. I didn’t loosen that back but. Smh
Thank you, saved me some cash
Thank you. This video is a big help.
ok forgot to thank you,.........so thanks
those two bolts one in the back and tension bolt don't loosen the PS. there's more to it.nobody on tube tells you about that hidden bolt. TU on that.
The belts you mentioned are very confusing to me. I’m in the same boat right now fixing the belt on this stupid car. The first belt you said was too short is a 40.5” belt… the one you said worked is a 43.6”.
I have a 44” and it is not even close.
I have the adjusters and PS pump and alternator sucked all the way in.
Got a 48” and a 50” to try
I've seen 3 different sizes before. Took two tries for me.
Nathan,
Good morning,
1. As for as the adjustment rod and screw goes....it sounds like you loosened the rod first then backed the screw all the way out.
2. The powersteering nut just loosen it correct? Also what is the torq spec or snug?
3.the alternator adj screw what is the torq spec on it?
4. As for steps (one) bottom powersteering bolt, (two) (optional 12mm alt bracket bolts) 14mm alternator adj bolt, (three) secondary pulley bolt loosen, (four) loosen ps bracket adj rod, and (last) backout ps adj nut all the way out then replace both belts
Theory
The alternator has a tensioner of its own
And
The powersteering has the rod and adj screw
Thank you very much! Very well done.
Thanks man!
Thank you.
God bless you for actually explaining !!! I saw another video who just said loosen the power steering bolt and that's all😡
Stranger: can I get directions to the store.
Bystander: sure just pick up your feet and walk.
What's wrong with people?
The bottom bolt....ugh!!!!!!
Good video bro , better cut back on the coffee and buy some new gloves. Hahaha. Just kidding !! 👍👍
Ha ha..less stress now days!
Your video is ok, but you are missing some crucial info. You mention two bolt sizes but fail to disclose the size of the side nut on adjusting rod? What is the size of that locknut??
Sir i couldn't loosen the 14mm nut on power steering belt pls help
Hey thanks for the video. I am going to have to do this soon. My power steering is getting hard and squeaky and I just noticed the belt was loose. I am hoping it's just the belt being loose causing the squeak and hard turning. I am wondering why that one pully has to be loosened near the alternator? Doesn't seem like that would matter? Maybe I will see when I get hands on . Thanks again.
Hey my alternator belt is loose. I replace the idle pulley and put the belt on but now it is very loose. How do I tighten that belt?
Whats the second belt called?
Toyota makes changing parts much more easier than Nissan and also have more hand space to work with Nissan is to hard and time consuming
Right on man!!
hardest belts to change,i thought these screw adjusters went out with the horse and buggy...lol
Nice!
Got both belts off. Then got alternator belt on and tight. Now I cant seem to get the power steering belt tight.doing everything the video shows.belt is still loose
Much appreciated! I gotta do this 2morrow in hi 30s lo 40s..... FUCK! Such a pain n the ass!
Thanks! Let us know how it goes!
The belt looks like it slipped off the pulleys cuz theres oil on the front of the alternator and the area below it; on the the rod that adjusts the tension. It looks serious, any ideas of what it could be? Also gotta replace a wheel bearing but dont know which 1.
Just saw your comment. Probably oil... look for a oil spot where you park, that might get you started.
cant move the alternator - there is a tight 14mm bolt at the base that I can't get a ratchet on and a regular wrench isnt long enough to grab and torque.,.. have to get a 14mm super long wrench or I am missing something
I think you got it. Just take a break and go back at try it again. I do this all the time....and it makes the job more relaxing.
@@FixingWithPassion I used a pivot head ratchet handle and a 14mm long socket.
So both these two belts are the same size ??
I can’t get the belt on and I took the two bolts out the alternator and it still won’t move
Is there a certain amount of foot pounds for the tightness of the bolts.? Or just as tight as you can make it? Like the video very informative thank you
Yes there are torque specs, and you do not want to overtighten the bolts.
Wish I had seen this video earlier. Squealing belt on cold start up. Found the power steering adjuster laying loose on top of the belt. Took the linkage piece off and biked over to AutoZone for a metric nut. After three hours of rassling with the damn thing including biking BACK to AZ because my dumb @ss left the original linkage piece on the counter, finally get it all back together and.... it squeals just the same. Time to take a look at that alternator belt.... Thanks for the vid.
check your idler nut weekly to be sure its tight...nissan junk...but gets me to work everyday...lol
Thanks man helped me out a lot it might have been 90 where you was but it's 15 degrees where I'm at it is cold here out of the great video thank you
For the power steering belt (back rod) how many bolds total shyly I take out? The rod and that bold that you show underneath only? I took the 12nm rod out but the power steering wouldn’t move! I spent half a day!
Same. Hours and hours and no movement.
Is this the same set up as a Nissan Sunny 1998?
Maybe!
I just bought a 2001 Nissan Sentra and the belt is squeaking when I first start the car up. Compared to my old Mercedes and my Honda accord this seems very complicated. Is the tensioner pulley an automatic one? Normally I would just use like a 17 mm socket and loosen that to put the belt on on my other cars
I never followed up but I figured it out no tensioner on these. I had to replace both but yeah every bolt has to be extremely tight for no squeaking since there’s no alternator
Size of the belt
My alternator belt is too loose idk what’s wrong. Everything is tighten back how it should and now the belt is like way to loose
😲
What’s the torque spec for the tension spring nut?
12.-8
Nathan Rohrbough can’t understand you
What's the belt size
when you say "you know how to put a belt on", well - I don't, which is why I was hoping you'd show that.
Hummm sorry. If you know the way it was on, just make a note and slip it back on...may take some time and patents but you can do it!
Why would you not film the parts of loosening the tensioner? Its the one part im stuck on
Because its was hard to get the camera into that area. There is only three bolts...
Puis-je l avoir en français
Damn this video i need to change other belt.
Scotty has one fo ya.
@@FixingWithPassion ok thanks
What is the belt number?
1838454-lk
@@FixingWithPassion Thankyou very much sire. I have a nissan sentra sunny (1999) and the parts here are very hard to find. Can you please confirm if this is for alternator. Can you also confirm the number and size of the engine main belt. Also, please tell me the compressor model for AC in nissan 1997 sunny
Is that the v belt or serpentine belt?
Serpentine mostly.
Is the idler pulley hydraulic?
Its a round pully
Great video ....What a pain in the ass... Is this the best design nissan can think of , why make it so you gotta back adjuster bolt out 2in.. Geeeesh
I know! That one adjustment bolt...ugh!!!!!!
Why the hell are you wrenching on the damn alternator. There is a tension bolt.
Wat?? Ha??? Wattt......
thats what i couldnt finger out,unless my 2006 is different
got so used to changing belts with one tool and 5 minutes,this car has ruined my faith in humanity...HA....HA
Way too much work. That alternator bracket can stay on. And no bother the power steering. It can be done. Just saying
Until you round-off the bolt from rust.....
Lol
Lol
