2001 GLE Alternator - how to replace?

#1

Alternator died, I think. No charging amps going to the battery at idle.
Bought a new alternator but I am unsure of the easiest way to remove the old
one to have it bench-tested. Should I attack this project from below? Do I
need to remove anything other than the belt first?

This is my first post here. If there's an FAQ, or if RTFM is the answer,
that's cool. I don't have a manual.

Thanks,
Gavin

That's not the way I would do it.

Just bring it to me and I'll do it for 1.5 hrs labor
