Does a 1993 Ford Taurus have a timing chain or timing belt?

I own a 1993 Ford Taurus GL 4 door sedan 3.8 v6 and it has a serpentine belt, that connects pullies for the crankshaft, the air conditioning clutch, the power steering, the alternator, and the water pump! I just replaced my water pump so I know this to be fact. If there is a timing chain it is behind the water pump housing and not visible without removing the water pump housing cover!


What does check charging system in a 2007 Ford Taurus mean and the battery light is on and the steering wheel won't turn?
