Hello, You should only have one belt that goes around everything. Locate your setup below then locate the tensioner pulley. In the first pic you will rotate the tensioner downward to loosen the belt in order to remove. In the second pic you will need to rotate the tensioner towards the passenger side to loosen and remove the belt. The third pic is a special tool used to assist and makes it easier to rotate the tensioner. You can call your local rental store and see if the have the tool or ask your local part store if they rent tools....
