What is the model number of the Wuling Hongguang 1.2 alternator belt?
2 Answers
The belt model is 6PK1757. Below is more information about the timing belt: Note 1: As part of regular maintenance and comprehensive inspection, the timing belt should be included in the routine maintenance schedule. Neglecting this, failing to regularly inspect and promptly replace a faulty timing belt, may lead to serious consequences. Note 2: Unlike the accessory drive belts, the timing belt is accessed based on the engine and engine compartment layout. In most cases, the timing belt cover, at least the upper part of the cover, can be removed or moved aside. A belt with improper tension should be replaced promptly.
With years of experience in car repair, I know that the commonly used alternator belt model for Wuling Hongguang 1.2 is PK1190, but the specific model depends on the chassis number and year. For example, the 2015 version might be different. The belt doesn't just power the alternator; it also drives the air conditioning compressor and water pump. Once worn or broken, it can cause charging issues, quickly draining the battery, and in severe cases, the car may stall, affecting driving safety. Check the belt every 50,000 kilometers for cracks or looseness. When replacing, make sure to properly install the tensioner to avoid subsequent loosening, which can cause noise or damage. It's recommended to visit an authorized repair shop to check the vehicle manual or take a photo and send it to a parts supplier to confirm the model. Don't cheap out and buy off-brand belts, as they may not last long and cause more trouble. Regularly check the belt's softness and hardness to prevent unexpected breakdowns.
