How to remove a Scion XA 2006 alternator

2005 Scion XA Alternator Removal. Left front side of Engine, 2 12MM blots on the bracket, remove, one 14MM bolt below above the pulley. Get this loose and remove. It is a pain. Then pivot the alternator all the way forward. Screw the bolt in the RIGHT side so we can pull in the sleeve that is holding the BEAST. Using a Small Pry Bar, slowly and carefully put on Pressure forcing the Bolt to the RIGHT to pull in the Sleeve so the alternator will release. It took a few tries but I got it out. Getting the Bolt back in the slot seems to be the next challenge!!. Good Luck.

I have a Scion tc 2005....engine did not start once about 5 months ago...I was waiting 10 minutes and started w/o any other problems until today when it happened again, but this time did not start after...

first if they did check, it was after you had driven there allowing the alternator to put a charge back into the battery, you need to have the battery tested before you had it jumped, this would have told them that it is bad, most car battery only last for 3 years, even if you had a die hard from sears, another way to test it is to have a cell test they will put a load box on the battery and it will tell them what cell is going bad
