The car fan belt is a rubber belt that allows various engine components to work together efficiently. It plays a vital role in ensuring that the engine runs smoothly by powering critical systems. As the engine operates, the fan belt is driven by the crankshaft pulley, which keeps everything in sync. This coordination ensures that essential functions like cooling the engine, powering steering, and charging the battery occur seamlessly.

When checking the serpentine belt, look for signs of wear and tear, such as cracks, fraying, or glazing (a shiny appearance on the surface of the belt).

It’s prudent to replace the serpentine belt at the manufacturer’s recommended interval or sooner if any signs of wear are detected.
