help please! the pulley for the belt at the a/c compressor won't spin by hand. it'll only move left and right little and feels like its lock. what does it mean? i was about to put the new belt on till i realized this.

Is the ignition turned on, and the a/c turned on?Originally posted by JDM_Certified View Post
I'm assuming you took the belt off to replace it?

That's probably why there was no belt on it - The compressor is seized.

is there anything i could do to get it to spin?Comment

Yep - Replace the compressor.
You could remove the compressor and check if the clutch has jammed or if the clearance is out of spec.
