A/C Drive Belt: Accent

  1. Ensure that the drive belt is installed correctly. Check that the drive belt fits properly in the rubber grooves.
  2. Check the drive belt tension. If the proper tensions are not maintained, belt slippage will greatly reduce air conditioning performance and drive belt life. To avoid such adverse effects, the following service procedure should be followed:
    • Any belt that has operated for a minimum of one half-hour is considered a used belt. Adjust air conditioning drive belt at the time of new-car preparation.
    • Check the drive belt deflection at regular service intervals and adjust as needed.
  3. To adjust drive belt, loosen tension pulley and tighten drive belt. Tighten tension pulley and recheck belt tension.
