Description

The Idler Pulley Arm is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. As a connecting part, it works to route the drive belt and suspend the idler pulley. Mounted on a pivoting bracket, the durable arm positions the idler pulley to maintain proper belt tension over the lifter roll and drum.

Causes of a bad idler pulley arm can include fatigue from extended use, damage from overtightened belts, or broken welds impairing motion.

Symptoms of a bad idler pulley arm include:

• Slipping or prematurely worn drive belts
• Reduced or inconsistent drum rotation
• Grating noises or abnormal vibrations during use
