    Help, WTF is this sound

    I started the truck today and ran fine, went to the mall to get a new phone. came out and started the truck and it had a weird whistle sond from under the hood. it gets higher with te revs, but goes away after 2000rpms. clear at idle but not super loud. I was thinking maybe I need a new belt. Its not a squeel, so maybe a pully? Any thoughts?

    Alternator or Ac or pulley hard to tell from a video. I have replaced every pulley on mine and alt but now the AC is making noises when it is cold.

    pull the fan belt off first and see if the noise is still there. Try turning the steering wheel to full left turn and then pull just a little more. Might be the P/S pump, too.
