Honda Element Serpentine Belt Quick Tip

I had a friend ask some questions about pulling the serpentine belt off of his Element, so I put together this video with just a real quick tip to help you get the belt back on. Fishing the belt back into the right spot will take some time, a few explicative words, and multiple checks in the wheel well to get the belt right on all the pulleys before this video is applicable. I also recommend turning the steering wheel locked to the passenger side, and pull the two push pins in the wheel well to reveal the crank pulley. The Element belt can be a little difficult to get into position and get all the slack out of it. So I put this video together because if you get all of those things right and don't know about that bracket, you will likely lose your mind trying to get the belt on, thinking that surely it is too short, and that the parts store sold you the wrong belt. If you have access to a floor jack and jack stand, it would be beneficial to take the wheel off to offer you full access to the lower pulleys. I usually fish it from the bottom up.

Did mine last year, had my wife assist. It was very trying. Months later we are still in therapy. 😃

Is it that hard?

@@sandwich_in_wonderland it can be. Some of the aftermarket belt tensioner pulleys are slightly larger than the original and they don’t rotate exactly the same. Making it extremely difficult to get the belt back on
