I am not sure what caused the belt failure, I smelled rubber burning and found it tangled around the crank pulley rubbing on the side of the pulley. If I had to guess I would say it was age since all of the belts were pretty frazzled
i tried to turn the compressor by hand but couldnt get a good grip, I am not sure if it is locked but I figured if I could engage the clutch I would find out quickly.
