2004 BMW 545i Alternator replacement. This Video is about how to replace the alternator on a E60 with a N62 Engine. This project was a learning experience for me, since I haven't done this before, so I was working and learning at the same time during the procedure. Some of the steps can be avoided, once you watch the entire video. Thanks for watching

Great vid, question, did you have any issues in putting the alternator back in. I have mine out but am having the hardest time putting it back it. it seems like the battery cable is not long enough but I know it is. Just need to know how you angled it in. or if anyone else knows. Much appreciated.

Hi Joe martinez all you need to do is completely removed the radiator fan assembly, you will have lots of room to pull the alternator out after removing all of the bolts, then disconnect the alternator cable. reverse the process to install the new alternator..you need to reconnect the cable at the back of the alternator first before you put the bolts back in...PLEASE REMOVE THE ALTERNATOR FAN ASSEMBLY FIRST...good luck

@@chrisblackprince5745 thanks for the quick response. I have done all the above and not able to wiggle that bad boy back in. I saw how you had the cable sitting on top of the alternator. I might try that and see if I can get it to push back and in. Will let you know.

Hi Joe Martinez if you're still having problems reinstalling your alternator, make sure your new alternator is the correct replacement for your BMW, the bolt holes must be the same as the original alternator. Now after you reconnect the big black alternator cable, you need to reroute the big black cable, the way it was originally. if you look at my video with the original alternator still in place, you will notice that the big black cable is routed to the front, and right above the top of the original alternator. If you're having problems reinstalling your alternator, then you're not routing the big black cable correctly. Please try to remember how the big black alternator cable was routed before you removed the original alternator. The alternator only fit one way, if the cable is routed incorrectly you will have major problem trying to get the alternator back in. Hope this help good luck.
