you fix it
when serpentine belt breaks alternator and water pump stop working along with power steering pump
The same thing that happens when you cut the Jugular, its like the main nerve in a car!
You lose the functions of your power steering pump, water pump and alternator.
no power to the other componets it is connected to... ex.) a.c. wont work... and car wont start either probabley
There is no Fan belt. There is a serpentine belt however. If this breaks do NOT run the car. This belt turns the water pump keeping your engine cool. You will have major issues if the engine overheats.
if the serpentine belt breaks or comes off etc. the car will over heat as the water pump wont work. also it will die eventually as the alternator wont be working, as well as no power stearing etc etc.
of course you can!
yup!
before it breaks and you get stranded
Just before it breaks
No. Only the cam belt effects timing.
no the serpentine belt is totally separate from timing belt
