Squealing belt---which one is it?

Admittedly, I have no clue so here goes:

Which belt would cause a loud squealing noise when the AC is turned on? And what is the solution? And yes, a pic would be great.

i dont have pics, but if its only when the ac is turned on, i would assume its the ac compressor belt....find the ac compressor, and trace the belt and see if it mabey needs tightend or whatnot...just my 2 cents

hope it helps

The AC belt is usually one of the bigger ones. If it's anything like my truck, you have to take off the fan/alternator belt to replace it. Might as well do them all.

Christian,

You da man, man. Today it didn't squeal, but last night it did twice. I didn't even think it was me since there were so many domestics around me!

- Tom, I pirated these pics off the net. So I have no idea!

Dont worry, you would never see a Type R Bar on my rig!
