Bypass the AC compressor with a shorter serpentine belt?

[Johnny Mullet]

Can't you just pull the fuse? Or unplug the harness behind the hvac controls? Or would you just run the smaller pulley to bypass the AC? Or just remove the pulley?

This is good info to know in case your A/C compressor locks up and breaks your belt. Short belting it will buy you time until you get a new compressor.
