My power steering pump blew (I'm pretty sure since it leaked fluid EVERYWHERE) and it somehow blew this pulley out which stopped my alternator from charging and stopped the radiator fan from moving. So I drove home from work the other night with no power steering, my batter gauge showing no amps, and my temperature gauge spiked to 260. I turned the heat on, nothing but cold air came out and didn't help the engine temp any. Can't wait to see how much this will set me back. :mad:

Yeah it's a Jeep Grand Cherokee with a 4.0L I-6. You've seen that type of thing happen before? Do you know what caused it or how much it cost to fix?

Yeah that battery could use some help...it's done a good job though, it even helped jump the TG once. I'll get a new one eventually...but I'm looking at some other expenses right now :(

Pretty shotty wiring work too...I've been meaning to clean that up a bit.

check the belt tensioner make sure it is working right and not holding the belt to tight if it is good could have been a bad pump or you may have a leak in a highpressor line causing a low power steering fluid level

while your getting this fixed, you better change your engine and trans fluids as well.....seeing that you spiked 260 the oils were geeting fried as well and breaking down.....youll have bigger problems down the road on bad fluids! :(

Alright I'll mention that to them. Last time I checked, the Jeep was still sitting in the driveway waiting for a tow...I just wanna get this done with and find out much it's gonna set me back.

No belt = no water pump = bad news. Likely you havn't seen all the damage yet :(
