I just completed this job with the method described in this video. Is it possible? Yes, I was able to do it. Is it "easy?" NO, it is not! It did save time avoiding the hassle of removing the cooling fan, housing, and some plastic pieces. But, maneuvering the alternator out of the mounting area, then maneuvering it into the mounting area took patience and a good bit of trial-and-error positioning. I appreciate the video, and it did work, but "easy" is not a word that I would have used my friend. I did "like" the video because of all of the hard work that went into it. I would caution home mechanics to be very careful and patient because you run the risk of damaging your power connector rubber boot and terminal connector plastic shield if you get too rough with removing the alternator.

It won't slip out like that on a 2011 sedona.

Were you holding onto a bunch of balloons while filming this? What's with all the squeaking?

Thank you for posting this - I just completed this repair on my van. I have two pieces of advice for anyone else - definitely remove the 10mm bolt on the ac lines to give you a little more wiggle room, and remove the top covering the radiator/fan. This will give you a good place to get your arm in from the front to help stabilize & manipulate. Good luck!

2015 Sedona does NOT have room to easily pull the old one out or to place new one in. AC hoses are in the way and there’s way less space between the frame. Sux for us 2015 owners.

Just watched this video and completed the same alternator replacement on my Sedona. I have a construction background but not much mechanical. This video helped so much. It really was easy like the title says. Took me about 1.5 hrs to complete.

Kudos on this post ! Saved me a TON of time. Took a few gymnastics to get the old one out, but the hardest part of putting the new one in was the serpentine belt. All told took about 2 hours to complete. You are the man !! Many, many thanks.
