alternator 27060-B1100 1022116071 164410001 for Toyota PASSO KGC35 1KR-FETM

Pre-installation Preparation

• Prepare a 12V generator compatible with the vehicle model, along with tools such as a socket wrench, torque wrench, crowbar, and insulated gloves.

• Disconnect the battery ground cable. For vehicles equipped with self-diagnostic functions, read fault codes first to avoid data loss after power-off.

Mounting the Generator

• Align the new generator with the mounting bracket in the engine compartment, matching the bolt holes. Fixing methods differ slightly across Toyota models: for example, the Land Cruiser requires 1 bolt and 2 nuts for securing, while the Corolla needs alignment with the parabolic tooth slot mounting position.

• Tighten the fixing bolts and nuts to the specified torque using a torque wrench. For instance, the Land Cruiser’s fixing bolt torque is 39N・m, and the 8mm nut torque is 15.5N・m. Ensure the generator is firmly installed without looseness.

Installing the Drive Belt

• If the belt tensioner was removed earlier, reset it first. For some models, rotate the belt tensioner counterclockwise (note that the tensioner pulley bolt may have a left-hand thread) to create space for belt installation.

• Fit the drive belt onto the generator pulley, then sequentially onto other corresponding pulleys. Slowly release the tensioner to allow the belt to tension naturally. For models like the Corolla, use a screwdriver to partially pry the belt into the pulley groove and rotate the pulley to ensure full engagement.

• Adjust the belt tension to allow 1-2 centimeters of deflection when pressed. Tighten all belt-related fixing components afterward.

Connecting Wiring Harnesses

• First, plug in the generator’s three-pole connector and ensure it is fully locked to prevent poor contact.

• Locate the generator’s B terminal, secure the corresponding cable with a nut (typical torque: approximately 9.8N・m), and then install the terminal protective cap.

• Clearly distinguish between wires such as the field wire (F terminal) and ground wire (E terminal), and connect them according to the original vehicle’s wiring layout. For example, the Corolla requires connecting the F terminal to the regulator’s positive pole and the E terminal to the regulator’s ground. Never miswire to avoid short circuits. Additionally, secure the wires in the generator’s wire clips and organize them to prevent interference with operation.

Reset, Inspection, and Testing

• Reconnect the battery ground cable and tighten the terminal bolt to ensure a secure connection.

• Start the engine and check if the charging indicator light turns off normally. A continuously lit light may indicate a wiring fault.

• Further inspect the generator for abnormal noise during operation. Use a multimeter to measure the output voltage—normal operating range for a 12V generator is 13.5-14.5V. Test high-power electrical devices such as headlights and air conditioning to confirm proper functionality.

1. Safety Operation Baselines

• Disconnect the battery ground cable throughout the entire installation process to prevent short circuits and sparks that could cause electric shock or component burnout.

• Wear insulated gloves and goggles to avoid scratches from belts or pulleys, or burns from the high-temperature engine compartment during operation.

• Never touch rotating/energized components such as generator terminals or belts while the engine is running. Conduct preliminary checks in the 熄火 state before starting for commissioning.

2. Standardized Installation Details

• Tighten fixing bolts and wiring terminals to the specified torque (refer to the vehicle service manual; common range: 8-39N・m). Loose fasteners may lead to vibration noise or poor contact, while over-tightening can damage threads or the generator body.

• Connect wires correctly: Terminal B to the main power cable, Terminal F to the field wire, and Terminal E to the ground wire. Never miswire, as this may burn out the generator regulator or on-board electrical appliances.

• Ensure the drive belt is fully seated in the pulley grooves to prevent uneven wear or detachment. Maintain moderate tension (1-2 cm deflection when pressed): loose belts cause slipping and reduce power generation efficiency, while over-tightening accelerates bearing wear.

3. Compatibility and Component Inspection

• The new generator must be fully compatible with the vehicle model and engine type. Verify consistency in pulley specifications, mounting hole positions, and the number of wiring terminals to avoid installation failure or abnormal power generation.

• Before installation, check that the generator bearings rotate smoothly and the rotor has no jamming. Clean oil stains and rust from the engine mounting bracket to ensure a tight fit.

• If replacing the belt along with the generator, use a drive belt of the original vehicle specification. Replace old belts with cracks or aging to prevent future breakage.

4. Commissioning and Troubleshooting

• After starting the engine, check if the charging indicator light turns off automatically. If it remains lit, shut down the engine immediately and inspect the wiring connections or the generator itself for faults.

• Use a multimeter to measure the output voltage: it should be 13.5-14.5V at idle, with fluctuations not exceeding ±0.5V at high speeds. Deviations may indicate a regulator malfunction or belt slipping.

• Conduct a 5-10 minute test run after installation. Check for abnormal noise or overheating of the generator, and test high-power electrical devices such as headlights and air conditioning to confirm stable power supply.
