Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra. Service manual — part 1887
cause the drive belt to make a noise or to fall off.
Excessive misalignment of the drive belt pulleys will cause excessive wear but may also make the
drive belt fall off.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
2: This inspection is to verify the condition of the drive belt. Damage may of occurred to
the drive belt when the drive belt fell off. The drive belt may of been damaged, which
caused the drive belt to fall off. Inspect the belt for cuts, tears, sections of ribs missing, or
damaged belt plys.
4: Misalignment of the pulleys may be caused from improper mounting of the accessory
drive component, incorrect installation of the accessory drive component pulley, or the
pulley bent inward or outward from a previous repair. Test for a misaligned pulley using a
straight edge in the pulley grooves across two or three pulleys. If a misaligned pulley is
found refer to that accessory drive component for the proper installation procedure of that
pulley.
5: Inspecting the pulleys for being bent should include inspecting for a dent or other damage
to the pulleys that would prevent the drive belt from not seating properly in all of the pulley
grooves or on the smooth surface of a pulley when the back side of the belt is used to drive
the pulley.
6: Accessory drive component brackets that are bent or cracked will let the drive belt fall
off.
7: Inspection of the fasteners can eliminate the possibility that a wrong bolt, nut, spacer, or
washer was installed. Missing, loose, or the wrong fasteners may cause pulley misalignment
from the bracket moving under load. Over tightening of the fasteners may cause
misalignment of the accessory component bracket.
13: The inspection is to verify the drive belt is correctly installed on all of the drive belt
pulleys. Wear on the drive belt may be caused by mis-positioning the drive belt by one
groove on a pulley.
14: The installation of a drive belt that is too wide or too narrow will cause wear on the
drive belt. The drive belt ribs should match all of the grooves on all of the pulleys.
15: This inspection is to verify the drive belt is not contacting any parts of the engine or
body while the engine is operating. There should be sufficient clearance when the drive belt
accessory drive components load varies. The drive belt should not come in contact with an
engine or a body component when snapping the throttle.
