how do i change the power steering belt on a 2000 hyundia elantra gls
and what tools will i need please help

 

Couple sockets, a 12mm long handle ratchet wrench works well for the Alt adjust bolt..

Loosen P/S pump, loosen alternator, flip belt off alternator/water pump, then flip belt on P/S... Tighten P/S belt, install alternator belt, and tighen real good,, as alternator belt provide power to turn P/S at water pump pulley...

What is the reason for P/S belt replace ?

May consider replace all 3 belt at same time while apart...

 

seen that the belt was ripping. thank you very much for the information

 

I know this if for DIY....but I have gotten older and have found a nice comprimise for those without tools is to buy the part and pay someone to only install. I had someone do belts for me and it was $60, they had it on a lift, power tools and I was driving off fairly quickly.

no warranty by them for correct trouble shooting or anything...so its a "medium" DIY..you troubleshoot they slap on the belts.

been working well for me anyway, as I don't have the lift and power tools and expertise.

brakes are a really good one, because Auto Zone has lifetime warranty...I just got free rotors and brakes parts, paid my mechanic $60 and he was done in 20-30minutes,,,very nice.

I agree, do all your belts while your in there, if you can afford it.
