Cadillac Repair: Cadillac Sedan Deville 1991, cadillac sedan deville, serpentine belt


Question
Need to know the path the serpentine belt follows.
Also, were to plug in electrical connections on alternator

Answer
Hi Forrest, Usually there is a sticker under the hood or on the plastic radiator top cover that show routing. If not then start by putting the belt under the harmonic balancer, over the water pump, under the a/c , over the p/s, under the tensioner, over the alt., and then under the idler pulley. I find it easiest to thread the belt so the last place to put it is over p/s pump pulley. The B+ ring termonal goes on a post with the 10mm nut and the plugin is on the side. Make sure the battery is disconnected while hooking up the wires so nothing gets damaged by shorting out. Hope that helps. Bill
