No it would not cause the pump not to work, check the fluid level, if low fill it to full mark and test steering,if it still doesn't work the system may need to be bled to rid it of air built up from steering the car without the pump running.see a mechanic.

Do you need a different belt if you take your air conditioner and power steering off of my 1995 dodge neon?

Yes, if the belt driving the A/C was driving anything else. See if Dodge sold the 1995 Neon without A/C. If so use that belt layout. The AC and power steering are run on the same belt. my 95 neon lost the AC a while ago and the belt was simply replaced with a smaller one that just drives the power steering and leaves the AC out.

Can a dohc 2.0 engine keep running with the power steering belt broken?

Yes the engine can run without the power steering belt, but would be very hard if not impossible to steer around a corner. Even if the belt were a serpentine belt driving the Power Steering Pump, Alternator, and Water Pump the car would continue to run until it overheated or ran out of enough electricity to run. However if the engine was an OHC engine and the Cam belt breaks it will stop running.

How many miles before needing to change a serpentine belt on a 1992 Buick Park Avenue?

Normally it should be replaced when it shows signs of cracking around the rib areas. Rubber gets brittle with age, so that is more important than mileage. If it has never been replaced, replacing it would be a good idea and good insurance. If it ever breaks while driving you will have very limited driving time as it will over heat without the water pump operating..
