Stalling the serpentine belt can be necessary for maintenance or repair purposes, such as when replacing the belt itself or accessing components it drives.
Stalling the serpentine belt involves carefully following specific steps to ensure safety and prevent damage to the engine or its components. It typically involves using a specialized tool to apply tension to the belt and then slipping it off the pulleys it drives. Once the belt is stalled, the accessories it powers will no longer function, and the engine will run without them.
