Default 2005 Sedona Serpentine Belt squeaking

Hi All,
New to this forum.
My Sedona has 13000 miles on it, and absolutely love it. However the serpentine belt seems to have developed a squeak at idle. I would like to know if the tension just needs adjusting, and if so, how would I go about this? Looking at the belt, I cant seem to figure out how to adjust it. Any help would be appreciated
Greetings,
Jason

How bad is the squeak? If it's minor and the belt look goods, you may be able just to hit it with some belt dressing to take care of any glazing that has built up.

Otherwise, there is a tensioner. Visit Global Service Way. After entering the vehicle info, search for belt. Then choose "Drive Belt" from the list.

Thanks for the reply. It's sort of a pulsating "chirp". I'll give the belt dressing a try. Also tried to enter info in Global Service Way, but it wouldn't allow me to type anything. Any advice?
Thanks again.

You have to enter Model, Year, Control Unit, and Option. Then, click GO before doing your search.
