How do you change a fan belt on Renault scenic?

Changing the Fan Belt on a Renault Scenic

1. Park the car in a safe location and turn off the engine. Ensure that the parking brake is engaged.

2. Open the hood of the car. The hood release lever is usually located inside the car, near the driver's seat.

3. Locate the fan belt. It is a long, thin belt that runs between the engine and the radiator.

5. Remove the fan belt. Slide the fan belt off of the pulleys.

6. Install the new fan belt. Slide the new fan belt onto the pulleys.

7. Tighten the tensioner pulley. Use the wrench to turn the tensioner pulley clockwise until the fan belt is tight.
