The compressor cannot be by-passed, but you can disconnect the compressor clutch by disconnecting the two wire connector at the compressor; then the compressor pulley is just an idler.

    the compresser right now is locked up tight if i disconnect the wires it will unlock it up so it is an idler?

I have a 2002 Oldsmobile Alero what do I do to change the bypass pulley do I replace the ac compressor

You evacuate the AC system. You remove the serpentine belt. Then you remove the compressor. But the hoses and secure the cut ends so they don't rattle around. The bypass pulley will fit in place of the compressor. Then you install the serpentine belt

Can I use a short serpentine belt. AC compressor isn't working.

I have a 2000 E430. I just did this job because my ac compressor froze. I went to O'reilly and bought a serpentine belt 6pk2310.(different brand has it as k0910). The numbers after the part number is the length in mm or inches. Eg. 0910 = 91 inches == 2810mm. Just follow the diagram and bypass the ac compressor. Tools: 15mm wrench for the pulley tensioner. It took me 5 minutes to do this job and be on the road again. It is very easy.
On the Right is the normal diagram.

On the left is how you bypass the AC compressor on a E320/E430 2000-2002 engine.

New routing diagram for the drive belt on my 2004 Cherokee. new belt is 13 inchs shorter (this is to eliminate the squeek problem), my local garage is reluctant to advise me!

Click on the following Link. It has the two (2) Serpentine Belt Diagrams.

I believe the Mechanic is bypassing your AC Compressor.
When you look at both of the Belt Routes you can bypass the AC with the shorter belt.
In the first Diagram: the Belt would go from the Power Steering Pump, bypassing the AC and going directly to (over the top) of the Water Pump.
In the second Diagram: the Belt would go from the Tensioner, bypassing the AC and going directly to (under the bottom) of the Water Pump.

Let me know if this helped, or if you have additional questions or information. Feel Free to contact me at FixYa.com!

Changing the serpentine belt with out an air

I had to do that once, but it was on an older vehicle that AC was optional. Probably your best bet would be to see if you can wrap the belt on there, but bypass the AC pump. Then just mark the belt with a white marker to get the length you need. Take it to the parts store and have them measure it with their guide. They should be able to find you one that length. If a Rendezvous came without AC, you could just go in and ask for the belt for one without AC, but I don't think they did.

My AC compressor went out on my 2004 Chevy Blazer. Since winter is here, I just want to bypass the ac. I bought a belt for the same yr/make without ac. Where can I find a serpentine belt routing diagram to...

its the same. but a different pulley takes place of the a/c compressor. I know DORMAN makes a few "bypass pulleys" to do this, but dont know if they make one for your truck. at the worst... you will need to get a pulley and bracket from the dealer for a truck without a/c . as long as your a/c pulley bearing is ok, you can let the belt run there.

Air con disconected

If the air compressor is bad... check the diagram under the hood for the serpentine belt. Most vehicles will have a diagram that displays the serpentine belt path along with a part number for a shorter belt to bypass the ac compressor. If you can't find the diagram, go to your local parts store and they should be able to help.
