Serpentine belt system chirp


There is a weird chirp or squeak that seams to coming from the alternator pulley on my serpentine belt
This developed a week ago right after using some degreaser to clean my engine
Any thoughts as to what might be causing this or of some solutions would be greatly appreciated

Did you try belt dressing ?


If you got that degreaser on your belt ,that could make some noises.
