What do alternator repair services include?

An alternator provides power to your car's electrical system and charges the battery when the engine is running. If you're experiencing dim lights or squealing noises while driving, you might need to get your alternator checked out. Alternator repair services include inspecting and diagnosing the problem, repairing or replacing your faulty alternator, and testing the new one for proper operation.

Your Tasker will arrive promptly at your preferred schedule and location then go straight to any repair work on your car, which can include:

Alternator Diagnostics

Before starting any alternator repair work, your Tasker will first inspect the components of your car's electrical system. Make sure to describe all of your car's symptoms—whether it's a whirring noise, the warning light showing on the dashboard, or the smell of burning rubber. Once they find the root of the problem, the proper fixes will begin. Whatever is wrong with your alternator, your Tasker will explain to you the various options you have when it comes to repairing your faulty alternator.

Alternator Repairs

When performing alternator repairs, your Tasker takes out the defective or damaged part and replaces it with a new one. Usually, the process begins by safely removing the old hardware. Then, the repair parts are placed back where the old components used to be. All these are done in the quickest time possible while keeping in mind and following all safety precautions.

Alternator Testing

After repairing the new alternator, your Tasker will check for proper alignment and tension. Once all components are confirmed to be in good condition, you can start your car to test if it's running correctly. If all of the previous symptoms are no longer there, that indicates a successful job, and you're now good to go!

Broken Alternator Bolt & Stuck Extractor Removal – 2007 Honda Accord

$200

Warwick Farm NSW, Australia

21st Oct 2025

Hi, I need help removing a broken alternator mounting bolt and a stuck screw extractor from my 2007 Honda Accord (2.4L automatic). Here are the details: • The top alternator mounting bolt (M8 × 1.25 × ~100mm) snapped inside the engine block. • A #2 screw extractor (approx. M6–M8 size) is currently stuck inside the broken bolt. • The extractor is partially exposed (around 2–3mm visible) but the tip is rounded/stripped — normal pliers or tap wrench cannot grip it anymore. • I’ve already tried: • Drilling with 3.0 mm bit, • WD-40 + heat, • Locking pliers (no movement). • The extractor is not broken inside, just seized. The goal: 👉 Remove the extractor safely (without damaging the threads). 👉 Then extract or re-tap the original bolt hole if needed. Tools needed may include: • Extractor removal tools / cobalt bits / welding setup (if required). • Tap & die set (M8 × 1.25) for thread repair. • Portable heat gun or small torch. I can provide access to power, lighting, and basic tools (wrenches, sockets, etc.). The car is not drivable, parked on a flat driveway in [insert your suburb here, e.g. Villawood or Oatlands]. Flexible with time — prefer someone experienced in bolt extraction or thread repair.

Replace alternator, new alternator supplied by me. RACQ mechanic said it would take 1-2 hours which is a bit longer than usual due to the location. Looking for someone with experience and tools to perform the task. I am happy to help or leave it up to you, your choice. It's ready to be done. It would be great if it could be done today, if not tomorrow morning is ok. I have been let down by a Tasker, hence the short notice.

Jarrod was professional, punctual and is passionate about cars. His workmanship is first class and he did more than what was asked of him. Friendly guy with good communication skills. I would not hesitate to call on him again and highly recommended him for anyone on this platform.
