Serpentine belt routing: Anyone got a pic or diagram?

[fourbi4rox]

I'm trying to reassemble everything under the hood of my newly aquired Aveo. Since I didn't take it apart myself, its proving to be a nitemare. Anyone have a pic or diagram of the accessory belt? I need to figure out the locations of the idler and tensioner pully and the routing of the belt. Thanks!

Trying to install serpentine belt on a 2006. I got the old one off, but...
The idler pulley does not pivot to loosen tension on the belt. Talked to Autozone they say to loosen the alternator adjustment pulley. Alternator at top rear (top left in belt routing) and is held on by 2 bolts, 1 above and 1 below. Loosened both and not getting any less tension on the belt. Any ideas?

I apologize. Just got my new belt on. You guys were right and Autozone blew it. Thought I had tried everything. Just had to tighten harder on the idler pulley. (Belt tensioner pulley) which was easy to get at behind the tire. Thanks.

I still cant find a belt diagram my 2009 aveo5 has a seperate belt for the power steering and water pump. I am adding a/c and cant figure out how the new belt goes

[petrified.rabbit]

the bottom belt gets replaced with a longer one, and instead of going from the the water pump down to the idler/crank, it goes around the ac pulley. As far as everything else goes, its the same route as you took off.

thanks so much for the reply. I studied on it for a long while and a few beers later figured it out. but its all installed and doesnt wrk so assuming I need ecm programmed. so be it

There we go

I tried to fix mine but it en up beiing the automatic tensioner the is broken
It cost
65$ auto tensioner at napa autopro
30$ serpentine belt
50$ Serpentine belt tools kit
11.99$ for booster cable because i had to come back home without a belt so it drain the battery,( if it happen to you be aware for not overeating)
160$ in total

Stick a flat screwdriver under the belt at the power steering pump, leverage it against the belt, and rotate the pulley back and forth until the belt walks off. No, I'm not joking

To put it back: Zip tie the belt to the power steering pulley through one of the holes in the pulley. Rotate back and forth until it walks back into place. Still not joking

Don't forget to remove the zip tie afterwards
