Whirlpool Adg 954/1 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 idler arm assembly keeps the dryer drive belt under proper tension so the drum turns smoothly. Replacing a worn idler restores belt tracking and reduces noise from a failing tensioner. What it does:

• Holds and tensions the dryer drive belt to maintain proper belt tracking
• Keeps the belt aligned on the drum and motor pulley to prevent slipping
• Worn or seized idler can cause squealing, grinding, or premature belt wear
• A failed idler may lead to belt damage or the drum not turning properly

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair
• Access may require removing the dryer front panel or drum—follow your model's service instructions
• Support the drum and belt while removing the old idler to avoid damage
• Inspect the belt, motor pulley, and rollers while replacing the idler; replace worn components as needed

Seal assembly replaces the washer's front tub seal to prevent water from leaking around the cylinder, helping stop puddles under the machine and protecting internal components from water exposure. What it does:

• Forms a watertight seal between the front of the tub/cylinder and the outer housing.
• Helps stop leaks that occur during fill, wash, or spin cycles; replacement commonly resolves visible water at the front/base of the washer.
• Use when the seal shows cracks, tears, hardening, or other visible damage.
• Replacement restores proper sealing to help protect bearings and electronics from water intrusion.

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing.
• Replacement typically requires front access and partial disassembly of the tub/cabinet; follow the manufacturer service manual and use appropriate tools.
• Clean and inspect the mating surfaces and the shaft for wear or contamination before installing the new seal.
• If you find bearing noise, oil residue, or extensive corrosion, consider replacing affected components.

This is a replacement self-tapping screw used to fasten plastic and sheet-metal trim on Speed Queen laundry appliances. It restores secure mounting for panels and components that rely on factory fasteners. What it does:

• Secures control panels, trim pieces, and housing where a self-tapping fastener is required
• Replaces missing or damaged screws that cause loose or rattling panels
• Restores factory fit to prevent gaps and interference during operation
• Simple hardware fix to stop minor vibration-related noises

• Use the factory screw location and proper driver to avoid stripping; apply steady pressure while driving
• Tighten until snug—do not over-torque plastic or thin sheet-metal to prevent cracking
• Disconnect power before working near electrical components or control panels
• Replace all affected screws for uniform fit

This front bulkhead assembly replaces the washer's front tub support and splash barrier, restoring proper drum alignment and helping prevent leaks. Built as a service-pack replacement to fit factory mounting points and finishes. What it does:

• Supports and aligns the washer drum and outer tub for smooth spinning
• Forms a splash barrier to help keep water inside the tub and away from controls
• Provides the factory mounting surface for door seal, bearing, and related components
• Helps reduce vibration caused by misaligned or damaged bulkheads

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repairs
• Drain the washer and remove the front panel or cabinet to access the bulkhead
• Keep track of gaskets, seals, and fasteners; replace any worn seals to prevent leaks
