The Idler Pulley Bracket Bolt is a component that secures the idler pulley bracket to the engine block or other supporting structure. It is designed to provide stability and support to the idler pulley, which helps to maintain proper tension on the drive belt.

- Belt misalignment or tension issues: A faulty idler pulley bracket bolt can lead to belt misalignment, which can cause belt slippage, noise, or improper operation of accessories like the alternator, power steering pump, or air conditioning compressor.
Additionally, if the idler pulley bracket is being replaced or if any issues related to the drive belt system are encountered, it is advisable to replace the bolt as a precautionary measure.
