This document is a serpentine (accessory) drive belt routing schematic, identified by reference code A0007698. The diagram shows the drive belt's path around eight numbered components, with callout arrows pointing to each pulley and the belt itself. A legend table beneath the diagram identifies each numbered item: (1) generator pulley, (2) belt idler pulley, (3) power steering pump pulley, (4) drive belt, (5) A/C clutch pulley, (6) drive belt tensioner pulley, (7) crankshaft pulley, and (8) water pump pulley. From this document a reader can learn the correct routing of the single serpentine drive belt around all engine accessory pulleys, which is essential when replacing the belt or reinstalling it after service. The diagram shows the relative positions of the pulleys: the generator pulley at top, the belt idler pulley in the center-top area, the power steering pump pulley at the upper right, the A/C clutch pulley at the lower right, the crankshaft pulley at the lower left, the water pump pulley at the left, and the drive belt tensioner pulley in the center. The document itself contains no year, make, model, or engine designation; it was uploaded as applying to a 2001 Ford Taurus.
