Toyota Camry Harmonic Balancers

A four-stroke engine produces huge forces and torques that act on a crankshaft, resulting in a series of torsional vibrations that can put a huge stress on it, to the point that the crank can fail or even break in the long run. A harmonic balancer, also called harmonic dampener, is a smart component designed to balance the engine response to these torques, especially torsional ones. It prevents the crankshaft of your Toyota Camry from resonating and amplifying vibrations, which may cause severe damage to the engine. If you even suspect the malfunction of the harmonic balancer, check it immediately and possibly replace it.

A harmonic balancer is a circular device that is usually bolted to the front end of the crankshaft consisting of a metal inertial mass for counteracting torque and rubber part for absorbing vibrations. Unusual engine vibrations, separation of the harmonic balancer, and misalignment of the timing marks are common symptoms of a harmonic dampener malfunction.
