Smile GTP Question Please Help

I have a whining noise I was wondering, if I remove the serpentine belt and start the engine will it cause a check engine light.. The whining is not from my supercharger or my wife lol

removing the belt and starting will not cause a SES light. i would check the power steering, and belt tensioner. could also be your alternator.

Re: GTP Question Please Help

you didn't include the year of your car, but all 97-03 GTP's use the same a/c compressor.
