There are two things to do to stop the squeak. The first thing is to tighten the fan belt. Do this by loosening the bolt holding the alternator, and increasing the tention on the belt, and then retightening the bolt. You can also take lite grit sandpaper and sand the sde of the belt. DANGER!!! Make sure that you do not get your fingers anywhere near a pinch point on the belt, such as pulleys. If your had gets pulled into the belt, you can lose fingers.

On a 2001 Toyota Avalon How can you stop a squeaking noise while turning steering wheel?
The most common cause for a squeaking noise when turning the steering wheel on any vehicle, including a 2001 Toyota Avalon, is the belt that runs the power steering pump. If the belt is fairly new, a small drop of any dish soap on the belt while the car is running will clear up the noise. If the belt is worn, it needs to be replaced.
Can wd-40 be used on squeaky auto belts?
Squeaking belts are the result of improperly adjusted tensioners and pulleys. The belt slides over the pulley and squeaks. Using a lubricant would defeat the purpose. Also I'm not sure what affect wd-40 would have on the material the belts are made of. To get them to stop squeaking tighten them up. Make sure you use your manual and don't get them too tight.
