Best Answer

Seized should mean that it's not turning. Crank the engine and see if the alternator pulley spins or not.

What belt do i need to bypass the ac compressor on my 2001 Honda Civic lx?

The A/C clutch only engages when the A/C is on, so unless the pump is seized and you don't want to fix it, there is no reason to put on a "short belt". The belt that runs the A/C also runs the alternator so if the compressor is seized you would need a shorter belt to drive the alternator. The best way to measure would be to adjust the alternator bolt/bracket midway or slightly shorter and measure with a string and find a belt that is close.
