    Anyone have a suggestion for a good youtube video for alternator replacement on a 3.4l 5VZ-FE?

    I lost all lights, gauges, and power to my 99 Tacoma while driving down the interstate tonight. The failure happened within a matter of minutes which was pretty odd because usually alternators you can catch pretty early on. I was able to limp it off the freeway and just happened to get off on the exit where I work so I limped it into the parking lot of where I work.

    Anyways, I've looked at a few tutorials and they're all not that great. if anyone has any youtube video suggestions for good intructions and could give me a link that would be awesome.
    thanks!

    I would suspect the large bolt in fuse first before calling the alternator bad.
