Alternator: 2005–2015 Tacoma 4.0L V6
The 4.0L V6 Tacoma came with one of two Denso alternators: 100 amp or 130 amp. For 2005–2009, Denso lists the 100-amp unit as "excludes towing package", so tow-package trucks have the 130-amp one. For 2010–2015 it isn't stated. Check the amp rating on your old alternator's label before ordering.

How the job goes
- Disconnect the negative battery cable. The alternator's main terminal is live at all times.
- Release the belt tensioner and slip the serpentine belt off the alternator.
- Unplug the connector and remove the nut on the main (B+) terminal. Photograph the wiring first.
- Remove the mounting bolts and lift the alternator out.
- Compare old and new: amp rating, pulley, connector, and terminal. Some rebuilt units come without a pulley.
- Install the new alternator, reconnect the wiring, refit the belt, reconnect the battery, and confirm about 13.5–14.5V at idle.
Before you order
- 100A and 130A units are different parts. Order the one that matches your old alternator's label.
- A bad battery, loose cable or poor ground can look like a bad alternator. Have the charging system tested first.
- Not for the 2.7L 4-cylinder, which uses a different alternator.
