Hello! I am trying to replace my worn serpentine/v-belts on my car listed above, but I can't seem to figure out which belts are for which. I have two drive belts. One is specifically for the A/C, and I think that the other is for WP/PS/ALT. I'm not entirely sure though because when I shop online for parts, only these options pop up:

- A/C Belt
- A/C and Idler Belt
- WP/PS Belt
- WP/ALT Belt

Is there an actual belt for all three components (WP/PS/ALT) that fits my car?

Hi,

I attached a pic below showing the belt routing. Are you sure there aren't three belts?

Do me a favor. Take a look at the pic and let me know if that is what you see on your vehicle.

What I see in the pic is this.

One belt runs the water pump and alternator. (Letter A in pic)

Another belt is specific for the power steering pump, but it is turned by the water pump pulley. (Letter B in pic)

The last belt is specific to the AC compressor and idler pulley. (Letter C in pic)

Let me know if that is what you have.

Hello!

Thank you for a quick response.

That is exactly what I see in my system. Thank you for helping me with, as other mechanics incorrectly identified this system and also never explained these things to me. Thank you for a simple explanation!
