Understanding the Alternator Freewheel Clutch in Your Mazda 5
The alternator is a crucial component of your Mazda 5's electrical lighting and charging system. It works tirelessly to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy to power your vehicle's electrical systems and recharge the battery. An essential part of the alternator's mechanism is the alternator freewheel clutch, which allows the alternator to spin freely in one direction and lock in the other. This helps to reduce belt tension variations and increases the lifespan of the alternator and belt.

What is an Alternator Freewheel Clutch?
Many modern vehicles have complex alternator systems, so they use an overrunning alternator pulley instead of a traditional solid pulley. They work by allowing the alternator to "freewheel" or overrun whenever the engine decelerates, dampening the alternator's vibrations.
However, like any car part, the freewheel clutch can be susceptible to wear and tear over time. If there’s a problem with the alternator freewheel clutch pulley, you might notice squealing, screeching sounds or unusual vibrations coming from the engine area when the car is running. You can also find the recommended service intervals for this part in your car owner’s manual.
You can also learn how to change your alternator with our detailed guide.
