The procedure is as follows:-- You have to do it from underneath the vehicle. Take off the rivets to the two plastic covers, and then you will be able to see the tensioner for the belt. Use a 3/4 inch wrench on the tensioner (don't put it on the bolt that holds the tensioner on), and pull it toward the vehicle. The belt will loosen, and you can take it off. As a car owner, you know how important the belt tensioner is for your 2002 Honda Odyssey. However, internal parts wear and damage will loosen or seize the tensioner wheel, causing the belt to slip and make noise. Eventually, the belt may break, shut down the engine and lead you into a serious traffic accident. Before that happens, replace the tensioner on your Honda model and save yourself a lot of problems:---- Remove the Drive Belt:-- 1)Look for the drive belt routing diagram on your vehicle's engine compartment. This is a black and white label, about 4 by 6 inches, usually attached to the radiator shroud or near the strut towers inside the engine compartment. This diagram will be your guide when reinstalling the drive belt. If cannot find one, make a simple sketch on a piece of paper. 2) Insert a belt-tension release tool, or similar tool, into the auto-tensioner arm. 3)Rotate the auto-tensioner arm counterclockwise and slip the belt off the tensioner pulley. 4) Release the auto-tensioner but do not let it snap back in place. 5) Remove the drive belt from the engine compartment. Replace the Belt Tensioner 1) Unscrew the two auto-tensioner mounting bolts using a ratchet, ratchet extension and socket. Note the location of each bolt because they are of different size. 2) Remove the old auto-tensioner from the engine compartment. 3) Set the new auto-tensioner in place and start the two mounting bolts by hand. Make sure you install the bolts in their original place. 4) Start tightening the bolts until they hit the stop using the ratchet, ratchet extension and socket. 5) Torque the two bolts using a torque wrench. Torque the small bolt to 16-foot pounds [22 Nm] and the large bolt to 47-foot pounds [64 Nm]. This will help. Thanks please keep updated.please do rate the solution positively .thank you for using fixya

Serpentine belt won't fit

yes the cold temps will shrink the belt. But usually there is enough extra to work with......If you are sure the belt is routed properly (and it's easy to mess it up I've been doing this kinda stuff for 25 years and i still get it wrong sometimes) You can try to heat the belt in the house,put it near a heater or soak it in really hot water and try to get it on fast enough that it will stay slightly stretched for long enough. other than that I would inquire at your local part store about a slightly longer one or maybe your belt came in the wrong package and is too short for your vehicle
Good luck and thanks for choosing FIX YA!

Removing old serpentine belt

Hi alin,

No prybar necessary.
  • Get a 14mm or 9/16" socket and a long handled ratchet or breaker bar.
  • Get the belt around all the pulleys except the A/C compressor or Alternator.
  • The tensioner pulley is on a spring loaded arm. Get your socket on the center nut of this pulley.
  • Slowly pull the ratchet toward the center of the engine. The pulley will pivot on the arm allowing you to get the belt on the final pulley.
  • Slowly release the tension.
  • You're done
