Hi,

To get you started, here is a link that explains in general how one is replaced. You may find it helpful when working with the manual's directions.

If you look below, I attached the directions for the removal and replacement of the serpentine belt, the tensioner, and the idler pulley. I added the idler pulley in the event you find play or resistance in it when the belt is removed.

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,

Joe
