To adjust the belt tensioner on a 2000 Dodge Caravan, first, locate the tensioner pulley. Use a wrench or socket on the tensioner bolt to rotate the tensioner away from the belt, which will relieve tension. While holding the tensioner in place, you can adjust or replace the serpentine belt as needed. Release the tensioner slowly to reapply tension to the belt once adjustments are complete.
To adjust the auxillary belt tensioner you require a 6mm Allen key. Firstly slacken the 6mm hexagonal bolt on the tensioner pulley which can be accessed from the O/S/F wheel arch, then slacken the 6mm hexagonal bolt on the tensioner mount. This will allow you to adjust the tensioner at the bottom of the mount. By turning anti-clockwise the tensioner will tighten, clockwise loosen.
