Installation Method •  Preliminary Preparation: Disconnect the negative cable of the vehicle's battery to avoid short circuits during installation; prepare a 12V generator suitable for Chrysler models, special fixing bolts, belts, wrenches, torque wrenches, belt tensioner tools, etc.  •  Locating the Installation Position: Place the new generator on the corresponding mounting seat in the engine compartment, ensure that the mounting holes of the generator are aligned with the holes on the engine bracket, and adjust the angle of the generator so that its pulley is in the same plane as the crankshaft pulley and other auxiliary pulleys.  •  Securing the Generator: Pass the special fixing bolts through the mounting holes, manually pre-tighten the bolts, then use a torque wrench to tighten the bolts according to the torque specified in the vehicle maintenance manual (usually 25-35N・m, depending on the specific model) to ensure the generator is installed firmly without looseness.Install the drive belt: According to the engine belt routing diagram, place the belt on the generator pulley and other related pulleys; use a belt tensioner tool to adjust the belt tension, so that pressing the middle of the belt allows it to sink 10-15mm, and lock the tensioner after adjustment.  •  Connect the circuits: Connect the generator's terminals to the corresponding vehicle circuits, which usually include the excitation wire, power wire, etc. Ensure the plugs are properly connected, the wiring is firm, and there is no risk of loose connections or short circuits; after connection, check the circuit routing to avoid interference with high-temperature engine components or moving parts.  •  Reset and inspection: Reconnect the negative battery cable, start the engine, and observe if the generator operates smoothly without abnormal noise; check the generator output voltage (normal range is 13.5-14.5V) using the vehicle instrument panel or a dedicated diagnostic tool to confirm that the power generation function is normal.

II. Precautions •  Safety Regulations: The negative pole of the battery must be disconnected throughout the installation process to prevent short circuits in the electrical system from damaging components or causing safety accidents; avoid contact with high-temperature engine components (such as the exhaust pipe) during operation to prevent burns.  •  Component Matching: Ensure that the installed 12V generator is fully compatible with the engine model of the Chrysler vehicle, including power, installation dimensions, wiring interfaces, etc., to avoid installation failure or equipment damage due to mismatching.  •  Torque Control: A torque wrench must be used when tightening bolts, and operations must be carried out strictly in accordance with the specified torque. Excessively low torque may cause the generator to loosen and produce abnormal noise, while excessively high torque may damage the threads or the generator housing.Belt tension: The tightness of the belt must be strictly controlled. If it is too loose, it will cause the belt to slip and reduce power generation efficiency. If it is too tight, it will accelerate the wear of the generator bearings and the belt, shortening their service life.  •  Circuit connection: Before wiring, check the circuit labels to ensure the positive and negative poles are correct to avoid reversing the connection, which may burn out electronic components such as the generator rectifier. After connection, wrap the exposed terminals with insulating tape to prevent short circuits.  •  Post-installation inspection: After installation, a power generation function test must be carried out. If problems such as abnormal voltage, abnormal noise, or vibration occur, stop the machine immediately for inspection and put it into use only after troubleshooting.
