Ok after I've got some light it appears that whatever belts its supposed to have are no longer in the engine bay, found cooked hard pieces of rubber so im assuming that's them
Someone wanna come have a look at this for me? Im abit lost haha
Cheers

Did it throw all the belts? Did the water temp go up?

There's one belt in my engine bay and about 6 of the teeth have cooked and come off. From what le interbuttz has told me I believe there supposed too be two belts on my alternator
And it just conked out while I was driving I didn't see the temp go up, coughed and spluttered then proceeded to die in the ass , like a mazda should

Engines probably cooked if you ran for 20mins with no water pump

generally all a 13b needs is one belt from the crank to the alternator then the water pump, ive had two one a 13b and the other s513bt both only had the one belt. but yes i agree the alternator could be causing the problem as they do require a fair bit of power to run both coils

get new belts charge the battery up and attempt to start, only thign u gotta worry about is if the motor got cooked from driving it without water pump going

Belts replaced, alternator and power steering pump.
As soon as i hook a jumper pack up too it horn goes off, immobiliser light isn't flashing, yet I didn't turn it off.
Blown fuse perhaps? Or should I just replace the battery
Thank you AL <3

A new battery will probably get the same result.

Tried disarming immobiliser after connecting jump pack?
