So i started my car one morning to run engine for a while. After about half an hour I smelled something burning I turned off the engine and checked for whats wrong, i found that one of the two belts of alternator/ generator was broken and the alternator was not spinning

I tried to spin the alternator with hands but it was completely sieged and with a low bettery and high power requirement i couldnt move the car from gerage then and had to open the alternator by myself

Removed the air intake pipes and the view got clearer

use jack stands to lift the front. remove the underneath shield. That will expose the idler pulley adjuster bolt.

you may read this to understand the case and help yourself with a DIY

This is how close i got to it. Removed the plugs removed the upper screw on alternator.
Removed the brake vaccum pipe

[shabbirkhan786]

The alternator now moves to and fro freely on a screw or nut on lower side all whats holding it is that bolt on lower side.
But i cant figure out how to open it
So im stuck here now

crawl under car and check if bolt head is accessible from underneath, please

Ok i will try to in morning but you can see that there are some pressure pipes on the floor and that wont allow a tool to enter but i will see in morning then

Removed successfully. The lower bolt was accessible from top so it worked. To be fixed back tomorrow IA
