What you mean is .......... the pump has seized and the belt has melted or broken. When you replace the pump replace the belt as well but there is no need to add oil to the pump as this is added to the refrigerant in a calculated amount when you have it re gassed. but DO NOT USE THE A/C BEFORE IT IS RE-GASSED The best thing to do is leave the belt OFF until its re-gassed. Its a very easy task to refit the belt to a 24v or 12v as the belts are separate.
