An idler pulley plays a key role in the vehicle's belt system by guiding and maintaining tension on the serpentine belt, ensuring smooth operation of engine accessories like the alternator and water pump. It is typically mounted on the engine and helps prevent the belt from slipping or coming off. This part is vital for the cooling system and overall engine performance. Without a properly functioning idler pulley, the belt system can fail, leading to engine overheating or accessory malfunction.
