  • Description:

    This genuine Ford Motorcraft accessory drive belt tensioner assembly (part BT-103) maintains correct tension on the serpentine accessory drive belt of the 5.0L V8 (Coyote) engine, using a spring-loaded arm and pulley to keep the belt tight so it can turn the alternator, water pump, power steering, and air conditioning compressor without slipping. It fits 2011-2023 Ford F-150 and 2011-2017 Ford Mustang GT equipped with the 5.0L engine. Drivers seeking this tensioner are often chasing a chirping, squealing, or rattling noise from the front of the engine, a visibly fluttering or shaking belt, a worn or seized pulley bearing, or belt edge fraying and glazing caused by a weak tensioner spring. Because the tensioner controls belt grip on every driven accessory, a tired unit can lead to intermittent charging problems, whining accessories, or, in a worst case, a thrown belt. Replace the tensioner with the engine cold and the belt removed, verify the pulley spins freely and the arm returns firmly under spring load, and route the belt exactly to the underhood diagram before releasing tension. Inspect the drive belt and idler pulleys at the same time and replace the belt if it is glazed or cracked. As a genuine Ford component it delivers the spring rate, pulley alignment, and bearing durability specified for the 5.0L accessory drive. Backed by the Ford and Motorcraft parts warranty.
