Sudden failure of P/S belt - A/C clutch seized? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Scott on  Tue Mar 25 00:22 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Hi Folks.

After running the A/C for about half an hour the other day, the car suddenly lost power assist for the steering. Popped the hood to find that the belt had slipped off the pulley and looked like it was cracked almost all the way through at one point. Brand new belt, too.

Possible that the A/C clutch seized and caused the belt to fail, or was it just installed incorrectly? Have not ran A/C since.
