DRIVE BELT ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT FAN AND GENERATOR V BELT


    1. B00471Q

      Check the fan and generator V belt for wear, cracks or other signs of damage.

      If any of the following defects is found, replace the fan and generator V belt.


      • The fan and generator V belt is cracked.

      • The fan and generator V belt is worn out to the extent that the cords are exposed.

      • The fan and generator V belt has chunks missing from the ribs.

      *a Correct
      *b Incorrect

      Check that the fan and generator V belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.

      Tech Tips

      Check with your hand to confirm that the fan and generator V belt has not slipped out of the groove on the bottom of the pulley. If it has slipped out, replace the fan and generator V belt. Install a new fan and generator V belt correctly.

      B0046MU Specified Point

      Inspect the fan and generator V belt deflection and tension.

      Item Condition Specified Condition

      Deflection

      [98 N (10 kgf) tensile force]

      		 After 2 revolutions of the crankshaft pulley 12 to 13 mm (0.47 to 0.51 in.)

      Tech Tips


      • When inspecting the fan and generator V belt deflection, apply 98 N (10 kgf, 22 lbf) tensile force to it.

      • Check the fan and generator V belt deflection at the specified point.

      • fan and generator V belt deflection should be checked after 2 revolutions of engine cranking.
