StryGuy is correct. This is an ignition problem, not an accessory drive belt problem.

Think about the accessory drive belt--what does it do. It uses friction to turn the power steering, the alternator and the air conditioner. If it slips and your power steering pump doesn't work, you don't have power steering; but that shouldn't be a concern in the car wash. If the belt slips and your air conditioning compressor doesn't turn, you lose air conditioning. If the belt slips and your alternator doesn't turn, your car will continue to run off the battery; that's why people kill batteries and find out that it was the alternator.

Change all the parts StryGuy suggested and it will solve your problem.
