when we turn the car on it's ok. but when you turn on the defrost the serpt. belt stops all together and of course the battery starts to drain very fast. Think that this is just the altenator? cause when you turn off the deforst it's ok.

Well if the belt stops then obviously the battery is gonna drain because the altenator isnt moving
and when you say you "turn of the defrost its ok" whats ok everything? does the battery still drain? If everything is fine until you turn the defrost on i dont think its your alternator. Its prob in your heating and cooling system
what happens if you put on the air conditioner?
EDIT: Blown beat me to this post but yea it sounds like one of the belts is stopping when you turn on the heat
Whenever the belt stops, is there a grinding noise, or a noise that indicates it wants to continue spinning?
For troubleshooting purposes only, go purchase a smaller belt and skip over the pulley and see if it stops whenever you turn your heater on. You can always return the belt.
I would say your air compressor is locked up. It turns on when you turn on you defrost no matter whether you are on air or heat. It is drying the air before you heat it.

Yep thats it. Only its not an air compressor its a refrigeration compressor. My guess is the A/C had a leak and didnt work. All the freon/oil leaked out of it and it locked up so when the pully clutch ingages it stops spinning and stops the belt. You can unplug the power to the compressor at the plug right on the compressor. It will not stop the belt useing defrost if it is unplugged.

yep...
only thing it could be, if its realted to AC controls and the pulley stopping.
I know **** about fixing the compressor but sounds like what it is.
