The Dryer Idler Pulley Arm attaches to the idler pulley wheel, and the idler pulley wheel helps the drive belt rotate the dryer drum. You need to replace this part mainly if the bearing is damaged. To access this part, you'll need to remove your dryer door and the front panel of your dryer. This high-quality, durable replacement part is easy to install with basic hand tools, such as a multi-screwdriver. It only requires some disassembly of the dryer and novice repair experience. Before installing this part, unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker to ensure safety. Recommended Items: Drive Belt (item 661570V). The drive belt is a long, slender belt that wraps around the dryer drum, a tension pulley, and then around the drive motor pulley. The belt is likely broken if the drum will not turn when the dryer is turned on. Consider replacing the idler pulley while the dryer is disassembled (item W10116792).
