Guys im trying to remove my alternator, I've had a good look around the forum, Im following this guide on page 27-28

Basically so far I have loosened bolt 2 on the picture and It's not completely off, just sticking out, not sure if i need to remove it completely?

Basically i'm struggling to figure out how to remove the accessory belt? Is it just brute force? as I've yanked it really hard a few times and it doesn't seem to be able to move at all....

I assume once I get the belt off I will then be able to wiggle the generator about and disconnect/remove it?

Please help, I know nothing about cars, Just trying to save on garage bills....

I have a new alternator coming as this one has failed according to the garage...

I also need to replace a fuse as it's currently not cranking, its just clicking... but I guess I'll come to that later
