Section 26 (Charging System - Generators & Regulators): Overhaul: Generator: Disassembly
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 16 other vehicles, including the 2001 Toyota Tundra, 2001 Toyota Tacoma, 2001 Toyota Sienna, 2001 Toyota Sequoia, and 2001 Toyota RAV4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Remove rear end cover, if equipped. See Figure. Remove brush holder and IC regulator. Remove diode assembly. Remove rubber insulators or seal plate, if equipped. Use generator Pulley Set Nut Wrench Set (SST 09820-63010) to remove generator pulley.
- To remove pulley, install SST "A" and "B" to rotor shaft and tighten SST "B" clockwise to 29 ft. lbs. (39 N.m). See Figure. Place SST "C" securely into a vise. Verify that SST "A" is secured to rotor shaft and install SST "A" and "B" and generator into SST "C". Turn SST "A" in correct direction to loosen pulley nut. See Figure. To prevent damage to rotor shaft, DO NOT loosen pulley nut more than 1/2 turn. Remove SST "A" and "B" and generator from SST "C". Remove SST "A" and "B" from rotor shaft, and remove pulley nut and pulley.
- Remove rectifier and frame using appropriate puller. Remove generator washer (if equipped). Remove rotor from drive end frame (stator).
