[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 456135, member: 4527"] Bingo! Power steering + water pump + crank pulley = 1 belt. Alternator + aircond compressor + crank pulley = 1 belt. Use your hand to spin both the alternator and aircond compressor pulley to feel the resistance. Which ever jammed, you should be able to tell immediately and that would have dragged the belt, causes smoke and snapped the belt. If I were u, I would hope the aircond still work because replacing alternator is cheaper. But since you have no problem to run the car without aircond, get the mech to remove the aircond compressor (if sudah jammed la!), and use a shorter belt. Without removing the aircond compressor, no room for the shorter belt to avoid the aircond pulley. Next thing is I hope which is used are tensioner? Aircond pulley or alternator? Without the tensioner, its impossible to tighten the belt.. [/QUOTE]
