How do you replace power steering belt on 2003 Mazda protege ?1.6
This applies to a 2003 Mazda Protege: It depends on what type of engine you have. For the 1.6L engine, the oil dipstick is the front-passenger side area, close to the power steering reservoir. For the 2.0L engine, the dipstick is on the same side but towards the back, close to the wheel.
Screwed into the side of the power steering pump.

This year Mazda protege does not have a serpentine belt. It has two belts, one for the alternator/water pump, and the other for the power steering and a/c.
I researched this as I own a Mazda Protege with a 2.0 DOCH engine. I found a file that list all interference engines and timing belt requirements. The Mazda 2.0 L is listed as a interfrence engine with a timing belt change listed at 105,000. I just changed my timing belt at 121,000. File that list engine can be found if you google (power grip interference engine)
Right on the power steering pump. pointing to the front of the car.
Check for a loose power steering belt.
Remove the power steering belt first then the alternator belt will go on.
Overheating can come from many causes: Low radiator coolant, broken fan thermostat, broken fan, low oil, worn-out water pump, too much grime on the engine, or clogs in the coolent or oil system. If your Protege is turbo-charged, you may want to check that system as well. Aftermarket items added to increase engine power can also cause overheating if the oil and coolent systems aren't also upgraded.
i need to change my alternator belt and don't know where the tension wheel is so i can take off the other belt to replace the alternator belt on my 94 Mazda protege 1.6l
need some more information my friend The power window motors on a Protege are non-repairable items. Make sure the switches, fuses, and such are in good order before replacing the motor.
