Description

This idler arm assembly keeps the dryer drum belt properly tensioned so the drum turns smoothly for even drying. Replaces a worn or broken tension arm to restore belt tracking and reduce noise. What it does:

• Maintains correct tension on the dryer drive belt so the drum rotates consistently
• Guides the belt for proper alignment and helps prevent slipping or rubbing
• Reduces squeaks, thumping, or belt-slap caused by a loose or damaged idler
• Works with the drive motor and belt to transfer rotation to the drum

What's included: One idler arm assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Basic hand tools required; remove the front panel or access panel per your model's service instructions.
• Inspect the drive belt and pulley for wear while replacing the arm; replace if damaged.
