If your old belt has not broken, simply go out to your car with paper and pencil and draw a simple diagram of how the belt is routed. If the belt has broken, many cars have diagrams under the hood. You can also go to a good search engine like Google and research it. For example, you search for "99 Crown Victoria serpentine routing". If you do much of your own work, then invest in a Chilton or Haynes manual for your car. They have a great deal of valuable information. Greg

My alternator stopped recharging my battery but I can't take the tension off my serpentine belt to put my alternator back on.
Under the hood should be a diagram of the belt, this is your best reference without the service manual. All you have to determine is which direction to rotate the belt tensioner, then put the belt back on as shown in the diagram.

Hi are you wondering how to put it back on after removal? If so mine has been replaced twice so far and the last time i had bought the serpentine belt the diagram was on the packaging of the new belt if it is of any help?
So I can put the belt back on the car there are no diagrams on the to show me how it go's on.
the Serpentine Belt on the 91 Lebaron is on Tension Pulley, you dont tighten it. But if it is loose and you need to tighten it you just go and buy a new belt and put that on.
The best way to replace the serpentine belt is to remove it from the tensioners. You have to put pressure on the stress points to get the tensioners to release the belt. Once that happens you can replace the belt with a new one following the diagram in your owner's manual.
There should be a routing diagram under the hood. If it is the 2.8L V6 the diagram is on a guard above the belt between the power steering pump and the water pump.
In a mechanic's manual - sometimes you can buy one from a Ford dealer
How do you put on a serpentine belt on a 2002 Isuzu axiom
If the belt slipped off, this is an indication that the belt is worn out or the tensioner needs replacing, or both. You put the belt back on by pulling the tensioner back, sliding the belt over all the pulleys in the correct manner, and releasing the tensioner to apply tension to the belt. There should be a diagram of the serpentine belt routing procedure under the hood of your vehicle.
I had to replace my belt and was forced to use a different route to put my belt on instead of the one pictured in the sticker that should be on the hood. You can email me and will send you a picture of what the diagram is and show you what I had to do. alcharles@excite.com
If it's a serpentine belt, all you have to do is put a socket on the tensioner pulley, rotate it counterclockwise, and that should give you the slack you need to remove the belt. You do the same thing installing the new belt, and refer to the belt diagram when routing the belt.
If it's like the 94 there is a diagram on cover plate for over the fan. The tensioner is in the back and should be loosened to remove the belt.
Loosen the tensioner pulley. The serpentine belt will become loose and can be removed. Put the new serpentine belt on and tighten the tensioner pulley.
