yesterday out of no where my battery lite came on and care started over heating so i figured out that it was the belt it sliped off the fan pully so stop spinning everything...
so i put the belt back on rite and a few hours later the same happened. why is it slipping? bad belt? i used the tension pully to make it very tight
 












Like B said. Stretched belt or bad tensioner. Might wanna replace the idler pulley too.
 






With the belt off, inspect all the pulleys by spinning them.
