A fan belt, often referred to as a serpentine belt, is a looped piece of rubber that drives multiple peripheral devices in an engine. Although they may vary in design and configuration between different makes and models of vehicles, the fundamental purpose remains the same. The fan belt connects the engine's crankshaft to various components such as the alternator, power steering pump, water pump, and sometimes the air conditioning compressor. This connection allows these components to function efficiently, ensuring your vehicle operates smoothly.
