Shouldn't be hard, you need to take off the belt, need the special tool to take of or can make #15 mim. wrench or socket, remember how the belt is installed??? disconnect power from battery and wires from the alternator .look which bolts hold remove one by one.

SOURCE: 1998 cadillac sts wont start

you have a large drin in the system,look for a shorted circuit and a drain test(with a test light between the positive pole of your battery and the engine off,start pullinf fuses out and see when the test light goes off,if theres is a drain that will be your circuit to check.

place the test light one end (the alligator clip to the cable and the point of the light to the + pole.

SOURCE: What will keep the alternator from charging the

Depends. If you have output at the alternator it could be a fuseable link to the battery. If the output is zero it could be the alternator or the circuit from the dash that energizes the alternator to turn on once the engine starts.

SOURCE: What can keep alternator from charging a battery

It could have become unplugged, or more likely, it has just gone bad. Take it to a local parts store, like Auto Zone Advanced Auto, and get it tested for free.

I have 2005 cadillac sts. battery was giving problem replaced the battery 2 days back. started with 14.4 volts. now it is 12.9 and goes up to 13.3 volts while running. is there a problem?

If the Battery's connector voltage with running engine, is 13.3 volts than you may have a charging system problem. If alternator and voltage regulator works properly, then with running engine, you have to read 13.8 up to 14.2 volts. Make sure to use a digital multimeter.
