Doug December 16, 2022 for Model Number Maytag 4606AYW I believe my idler tension pulley almost seized. When replacing does the pulley bracket need to be replaced and does it come with pulley. When looking from the front of dryer I cannot see how the pulley can be separated from the bracket.
2 Answers Hello Doug, the bracket and pulley are separate parts, the shaft has a small retaining ring that once removed allows the pulley to slide off of the shaft. Read More...

Cg December 05, 2016 My first question is, does the cabrio dryer belt tension pulley have something on it to keep it from sliding off, because mine is missing it if it does. The second question is I cant find the model number, where is it located.
1 Answer Hello CG. Some do have a lip and some do not. It depends on the model of the unit. The model number should be located inside the door on a sticker on a Cabrio dryer. Read More...

Fred April 04, 2014 for Model Number sde2606ayw When the dryer is running it makes a loud squealing sound almost a screech, or high pitched grinding sound. would this be the tensioner pulley going out?
1 Answer Fred, Yes, a high speed high pitched squealing or screeching noise is usually due to a worn idler pulley WPY54414. There are other possibilities, but the idler is most likely. When you have the machine dismantled, you would also want to remove the drum rollers and clean and lubricate the roller shafts and wheel bearings with high speed turbine oil as a preventive measure.

Rahm February 25, 2014 for Model Number sav205daww I have a maytag washer the idler belt pulley fell out. Does the belt go on the inside or outside of the pulley wheel?
Richard G January 24, 2014 for Model Number SDE3606AYN Ordered an new idler pulley and belt for this dryer. The new idler pulley is differant with no deeper grove on one side. The belt jumps off when using it. If I install the old idler pulley it works fine but still sqeeks. Any sugestions?
1 Answer Richard, Based on the model number of your dryer the idler pulley would be part number WP37001144 which shows that it does have the groove that you are referring to on one side. If this is the part that you ordered then you may want to use a silicone grease to grease the idler roller shaft. Read More...
