Car guys, help please
2002 Ford Explorer. A/C has been making a lot of noise for past few months. Today a perfectly good serpentine belt was snapped in half. Replaced belt. Squeals like hell when A/C is on, quiet when it's not. Before belt was snapped, A/C (compressor?) was loud but it didn't make the belt squeal. Also now A/C not blowing out cold air at all.

1. What needs replaced? Compressor?

2. Until I can get around to that is it ok to drive as is without A/C or do I need to get a shorter belt and bypass the compressor?

That is the best repair of all.

Call me tomorrow I'll pm you with the number.

Alright, she's fine with not having A/C so I just want to figure out my options.

Can I just replace the compressor pulley or will I need to replace the entire clutch? Its getting very hot and now its getting noisy (not the belt but the pulley itself), its just a matter of time before it breaks another belt. Ive already disconnected the power to it.

Or do I have to replace the whole compressor even though its not going to be used other than something for the belt to go around?

Or do I just try and find a shorter belt and bypass it completely? If I go that route will her defrost still work?

You can either try a shorter belt, or spend a little more and install this http://m.oreillyauto.com/h5/r/oap/si...027&reset=true

Oh nice. If I replaced the whole clutch assembly with this what are the chances of the A/C working again? I read someone say in reviews that they replaced just the clutch assembly after theirs seized up and the a/c worked fine after.

It sounds like the internals are locked up to me. If you can't spin that piece on the very front (clutch plate) its ****ed imo.

They probably had the front bearing (pulley that belt rides on houses it) lock up. When that happens the pulley never turns.

Yours turns until you lock in the magnetic clutch, then locks up. To me that says the pulley bearing hasn't totally failed at this point. Which then says it's locked up inside and needs a whole compressor, bypass pulley, or shorter belt.

Thanks man. The pulley turns with the A/C off and on, but when its on it makes a lot of noise and sparks fly.

I think Im just going to try to find a shorter belt. The bypass pulley is a good idea but it looks like I'd still have to remove the compressor and have the system vacuumed.

This whole thing is crazy to me, Ive had A/C go out in several vehicles but never heard of a one losing A/C and rendering it undriveable until it was fixed/bypassed.
