Maybe it's the wrong size fan belt?. I don't have a manual.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

The first thing I suggest is to confirm that all pulleys are aligned. If they are, chances are the belt is loose or incorrectly routed. There should be two belts on this vehicle. Here is a link that shows the belts, how they route, and how to adjust them specific to your vehicle:

Follow the link and let me know if it helps. Also, feel free to let me know if you have questions or need help.
