Jenn-Air Dryer Spring Parts

This idler spring maintains proper tension on the dryer drum belt by keeping the idler pulley engaged. Replacing a weak or broken spring restores consistent drum rotation and helps prevent belt slippage and squealing during operation.

• Maintains belt tension by pulling the idler arm/pulley against the drum belt
• Helps the motor start and keep the drum turning smoothly
• Reduces belt slippage that can cause squealing or chirping
• Common symptoms of a failed spring: drum won't turn or turns intermittently; belt comes off or feels loose; loud squeal from idler area

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, shut off the gas supply
• Access the idler assembly; relieve belt tension and note belt/spring routing before removal
• Attach the new spring to the same holes/orientation on the idler arm and base; verify belt path
• Rotate the drum by hand to confirm alignment and tension before reassembly

This spring-timer knob replaces a worn, cracked or missing timer knob so you can set and adjust the appliance's mechanical timer reliably. Simple, direct replacement that restores the user control interface. What it does:

• Fits onto the appliance's mechanical timer shaft to allow setting and advancing the timer
• Restores a secure grip and pointer for accurate time selection
• Commonly used to fix loose, cracked, stripped, or missing timer knobs
• Helps resolve inability to turn or set the mechanical timer caused by a damaged knob

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Pull the old knob straight off the timer shaft; align splines and press the new knob fully onto the shaft until seated
• If the knob is tight, use a proper knob puller or gentle, even leverage to avoid damaging the shaft
