05 TOYOTA COROLLA SERPENTINE BELT PULLEY IS SQEAKING. DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE

Number 1 is closest to the front of the engine. The front has all the pulleys and the serpentine belt.

• Here is the serpentine diagram for a 1999 Toyota Corolla with and without AC.

• Thank you for using FixYa

power steering may be the pump or the serpentin belt, when you start the car the ps pulley stops for few seconds and then starts turning i think thats the problem, check the fluid level.

On the Toyota Corolla has only one belt that goes around on pulley. Is a mechanism that you loose to remove the belt. is next of the body of the car on the right side where is the belt. I change the belt of my cousin Toyota Corolla 2004.

The Belt Diagram should be on the underside of your hood, however they have a way of disappearing.

Standard Rules to Removal the Serpentine Belt with an Automatic Tensioner:
1. Find the Tensioner(s). (See Diagrams on Link)
2. Using a Serpentine Belt Tensioner Tool, Or Wrench OR Ratchet, Rotate/Move the Tensioner USING THE AVAILABLE NUT (on the Pulley or Arm Base) OR the OPENING (3/8ths or 1/2 inch square opening) rotating the Tensioner Pulley/Arm - moving it away from contact with the belt and towards the area where the belt is not in contact with the Tensioner Pulley. The Tensioner is spring loaded, and is hard to rotate/move.
3. Remove the loosened belt off one of the other more easily accessed Pulleys.
4. DO NOT quickly release the Tensioner, but gently allow the Tensioner to rest in its closed position.

Standard Rules for Installing the Serpentine Belt with an Automatic Tensioner:
a. Pick a Pulley that is most easily accessed. This will usually be on top. This will be the last Pulley that the belt will go on.
b. Using the Diagram: Install the new Serpentine Belt on the remainder of the Pulleys....over, under, left right.
c. Using a Serpentine Belt Tensioner Tool or Wrench or Ratchet Tool: Rotate/Move the Tensioner Pulley/Arm "away" from Belt contact area on the Tensioner. This spring is pretty hard and with a new belt, it will be even harder to install. Rotate/Move this to as-close to the maximum allowed inorder to have enough slack in the belt to get it up and over the last pulley.
d. Using your other hand - Pull the Belt up and over the Last remaining Pulley.
e. Before releasing the pressure on the Tensioner, visually inspect the remainder Pulleys and the Belts' Positioning on them.

You'll have to remove the engine cover under the bottom so you can position the new belt on the pulleys properly. Get a wrench or tensioner tool and turn the tensioner clockwise to relax the drive belt. Don't apply excessive force.

It's hard to draw a picture with words, but looking at the engine from the passenger side of the car, there are basically two top pulleys, two middle, and two bottom. The drive belt goes around the outside of the two top and two bottom, and on the inside of the two middle.

if the pulley is smoth the belts back rides on that surface if it is ribbed or lined the inside of the belt rides on that surface , you local parts store should have a diagram or dealership .

not to much a rachet or a wrench their will be one marked pulley that one will be movable (springy)you just move that one and slide the belt in place if not its a alternatooer adjustment

Hi there weekie,

Simple and easy. Really.

• Get a 14mm or 9/16" socket and a long handled ratchet or breaker bar.
• The tensioner pulley is on a spring loaded arm. Get your socket on the center nut of this pulley.
• Slowly pull the ratchet toward the center of the engine. The pulley will pivot on the arm allowing you to get the belt off.
  
• Slowly release the tension.
  
• You're done
