Accessory Drive: Notes
The accessory drive:
- has a single serpentine drive belt with 6 ribs.
- has automatic tensioning.
- is not adjustable.
The accessory drive system provides power to operate components which power other systems. These could include components such as the generator, power steering pump, and A/C compressor. Each of these components is equipped with a pulley which is driven by the accessory drive belt. The accessory drive belt is driven by the engine crankshaft pulley. One or more idler pulleys may be provided to facilitate belt routing and alignment. The automatic belt tensioner maintains proper belt tension and compensates for component wear and changes in system load. System load changes can be caused by the A/C compressor clutch engaging or disengaging, or demand changes on other systems powered by the accessory drive belt. To maintain proper operation of this system, it is critical that the correct length drive belt be installed. The pulleys must also be properly aligned and kept clean.
