To the maker of this video….God bless you. My alternator went out today on my 07 dts and the mechanic told me it was gonna be 7 hours of labor…I accepted that and walked away, searched youtube for this problem and your video saved me. I walked back inside and showed him this video…i was out within the hour. THANK YOU

Tried doing this on my 06 DTS. Success but ended up causing a small leak in the radiator pulling it out. Be very careful cause space is super tight. Like really tight. Almost worth taking it all apart to get better space. It'll be less of a head aches if you just do it the right way.

Instead of bending the top braces, I just took the two screws out the front below the radiator and lifted it up enough to get the top brace off and went from there. I removed the cooling fans and gently moved the radiator back a little and to removed and install the alternator.

Duly noted, thank you. I removed my radiator when I switched to the limo alternator. I replaced the radiator because it had a small leak though so it didn't matter. I left the condenser though. Also, I needed more room to work because I redid some of the wiring. Honestly, taking everything apart the way the manual says is quite efficient with exception to the condenser, if using air tools. Not having to reach down in tight spaces is a plus in it's own way. It's so stupid that the manual says to crack open the AC system for an alternator change though.

This is what the dealership or shop would have done and drove your car around for 3 days then charge you $800 for labor

i work in a shop, literally have a ticket for this job right now... 1250$ but that is with book time, we go by manufacture recommended time. when Cadillac made this car they said this job should take 4hr to accomplish. we get paid what the job cost to do, we do not get paid home much time it takes us to do it. some jobs only pay 2 hrs and may take 3.5 hrs to accomplish. we are really not making out like ppl make it seem. this job actually does require about 2-3hr labor, you cannot cheat it out like this on the majority of models
