Description

Spring Idler restores tension to the dryer idler assembly so the drive belt stays seated for reliable tumbling. Replacing a worn or stretched spring helps eliminate belt slip, squealing, and intermittent or no-tumble dryer operation. What it does:

• Maintains proper tension on the dryer drive belt so the drum spins smoothly.
• Holds the idler pulley under load to prevent the belt from riding off the pulley.
• A worn or stretched spring can cause slipping, squealing, noisy operation, or a dryer that won't tumble.
• Use the correct OEM idler spring for proper fit and tension.

What's included: One idler spring. Install notes:

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before starting any repair.
• Relieve belt tension and note belt routing before removing the old spring to avoid reassembly errors.
• Springs are under tension—wear eye protection and keep hands clear of pinch points during removal/installation.
• Inspect the idler pulley and drive belt for wear; replace if damaged to ensure reliable operation.
