XPARTCO EXP445 Dryer Repair Kit Replaces 4581EL2002C, 4400EL2001F, 4561EL3002A
The XPARTCO EXP445 is a complete aftermarket dryer maintenance kit for LG-built dryers sold under the LG and Kenmore brands, bundling the three components that most commonly wear out together as a dryer ages: the drum support rollers, the drive belt, and the idler pulley. Rather than ordering these parts one at a time as each fails, this kit lets you service the whole drum support and drive system in a single repair — the recommended approach once any one of these parts shows wear, since they all take similar stress and tend to fail in the same general time frame.
This kit includes 4 drum support rollers with metal shafts and high-strength bearings, 1 reinforced rubber drive belt, and 1 idler pulley assembly. It directly replaces roller numbers 4581EL2002L, 4581EL2002H, 4581EL2002C, 4581EL2002A, 4581EL2002D, 4581EL2002E, 4581EL3001A, 4581EL3001C, 4581EL3001F, AGM75510755, AP7220429, PS17269866; belt numbers 4400EL2001F, 4400EL2001A, 4400EL2001C, 4400EL2001E, 4115028, AP5972814, PS11705916; and idler pulley numbers 4561EL3002A, 4561EL3002B, AH3523033, EA3523033, AP4438243, PS3523033. Installs in 60–90 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO EXP445 Dryer Repair Kit fixes LG and Kenmore (LG-built) dryers with a loud rumbling/squeaking noise, a slipping or squealing belt, or a drum that won't turn — the classic signs that the drum support and drive system need a complete service.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. Remove the front panel (typically held by spring clips or screws behind the door frame) and carefully lift the drum out, supporting it so it doesn't drop or scratch the cabinet. With the drum removed, replace all 4 drum support rollers on their shafts, securing each with its retaining nut/washer. Slip the old belt off the motor pulley and remove the old idler pulley from its mounting bracket. Install the new idler pulley, then route the new belt around the drum and motor pulley exactly as the old one was routed (photograph the belt routing before removal) — the belt typically threads under the idler pulley with the ribbed side against the drum. Reinstall the drum onto the new rollers, verify the belt sits centered and properly tensioned, and reinstall the front panel. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm quiet, smooth operation. Tools needed: nut driver or socket set, putty knife (for spring clips, if applicable), and a camera or phone to document belt routing before disassembly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why buy a full kit instead of just the failed part?
The rollers, belt, and idler pulley all experience similar wear over the dryer's life and tend to fail within a similar timeframe of each other. Since the drum has to come out to access any one of these parts, most technicians and experienced DIYers replace all three at once — it costs less in total labor and time than doing three separate repairs as each part fails one after another.
My dryer runs but the drum doesn't turn — is this the kit I need?
Yes, in most cases. A drum that doesn't turn while the motor runs is almost always caused by a broken drive belt or a seized idler pulley. Since this kit includes both, along with the rollers that are commonly worn by the time the belt fails, it addresses the full drive system in one repair.
Will this fit my Whirlpool, GE, or Samsung dryer?
No — this kit is specific to the LG-built roller/belt/pulley platform used in LG and select Kenmore dryers. Other brands use different roller, belt, and pulley designs that this kit will not fit. Confirm your appliance model number before ordering.
Do I need to photograph the belt routing before removing the old one?
Yes, strongly recommended. LG dryer belts route around the drum and motor pulley in a specific path, often threading under the idler pulley in a particular orientation. Photographing the routing before removal makes reinstallation straightforward and avoids a belt that runs off-track or slips after reassembly.

XPARTCO 4581EL2002C Dryer Drum Roller Assembly
The XPARTCO 4581EL2002C is an aftermarket replacement dryer drum support roller assembly compatible with select LG and Kenmore electric and gas dryers. The drum support rollers are cylindrical rubber-and-metal wheels mounted on fixed shafts inside the dryer cabinet that cradle and support the outer rim of the drum as it rotates. LG dryers use four support rollers — two at the front and two at the rear of the drum. When the roller wheels wear down, crack, or the axle bushings degrade, the drum no longer rides smoothly and begins to wobble, causing loud thumping, rumbling, or squealing noises, or preventing the drum from turning at all.
This roller assembly includes one roller with center bushing design, one shaft (with threaded end on one side and hex end on the other), and two tri-ring retaining clips. Sold individually — LG dryers use four rollers total, and all four should be replaced at the same time. Dimensions: 3"L x 2-3/8"W x 3"H. The 4581EL2002C is the current revision covering the earlier A, B, D, and E variants. It directly replaces 4581EL2002A, 4581EL2002B, 4581EL2002D, 4581EL2002E, 4581EL3001A, 4581EL3001C, 4581EL3001E, 4581EL3001F, DE2002A, 2701044, AP5688895, EAP8260240, and PS8260240. Often replaced together with the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and idler pulley (4561EL3002A). Installs in 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 4581EL2002C Dryer Drum Roller fixes LG and Kenmore dryers that are thumping, rumbling, squealing, or where the drum has stopped turning. Sold individually — order 4 to replace all rollers at the same time. Includes roller, shaft, and 2 tri-ring clips. 3"L x 2-3/8"W x 3"H.

Often replaced with drum belt (4400EL2001A) and idler pulley (4561EL3002A).
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Loud thumping or rumbling noise during the drying cycle — worn drum roller wheels
Squealing or squeaking noise — roller bushing or axle degrading
Drum turning unevenly or wobbling — rollers no longer supporting the drum evenly
Drum not spinning at all — rollers so worn the drum has dropped off the support path

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Wear work gloves — there are sharp sheet metal edges inside the LG dryer cabinet. Access the drum rollers by removing the rear panel of the dryer (most LG models). Take a photo of the belt routing and roller positions before removing anything. Release the drive belt from the idler pulley, lift the drum, and set it aside. Each drum roller is mounted on a fixed shaft in the dryer cabinet — the roller is held by two tri-ring retaining clips. Use needle-nose pliers to remove the old clips, slide the old roller off the shaft, and slide the new roller on. Install the new tri-ring clips to secure the roller. Repeat for all four rollers. Reinstall the drum, re-route the belt, and reassemble the rear panel. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm quiet, smooth drum operation. Tip: while the dryer is open, also replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and idler pulley (4561EL3002A) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver (T20 on some models), needle-nose pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many drum rollers does my LG dryer have, and how many should I order?
LG dryers use four drum support rollers — two mounted at the front of the drum cavity and two at the rear. This listing is for a single roller. To replace all four at once (which is always recommended), order four of this part. Replacing all four at the same time ensures even drum support and eliminates the risk of a second disassembly in the near future when the remaining old rollers wear out.
What is the difference between 4581EL2002C and 4581EL2002A or 4581EL2002B?
These are successive production revisions of the same LG drum roller assembly. 4581EL2002A was the original, 4581EL2002B and C were updates, and D and E are further revisions. All variants are the same roller in terms of dimensions and function — if your dryer's parts diagram shows any of these part numbers, the 4581EL2002C is the correct current replacement. The 4581EL3001A, 4581EL3001C, and 4581EL3001E numbers are also alternate cross-references for this same roller family.
Should I replace the drum belt and idler pulley at the same time?
Yes — since the dryer must be fully disassembled to replace the drum rollers, this is the ideal time to also inspect and replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and idler pulley assembly (4561EL3002A). All three parts form the drum drive system and wear at similar rates. A worn belt or idler pulley is often what caused the rollers to wear prematurely in the first place. Replacing all three in one repair eliminates the most common LG dryer drum noise failure points and saves you from repeating the disassembly in the near future.
What causes LG dryer drum rollers to wear out?
Drum rollers wear naturally from the continuous load of supporting the rotating drum over thousands of drying cycles. Common factors that accelerate wear include operating the dryer with consistently very large or heavy loads, running cycles that are much longer than necessary (which increases total roller rotation time), lint buildup around the roller shafts causing the axle bushings to run dry, and a worn or broken drive belt that lets the drum sag and adds extra weight to the rollers. Regular dryer maintenance — including cleaning lint from around the drum and checking the belt — helps extend roller life.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured from rubber, plastic, and metal to match the dimensions and load-bearing performance of the original 4581EL2002C drum roller assembly.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Remove the lint screen and unscrew the Phillips screws inside the lint screen housing. Use a putty knife to release the top panel clips and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum. Release belt tension at the idler pulley, then lift the drum out. Remove the old belt, idler pulley, and drum rollers. Install the 2 new 349241T rollers onto the rear bulkhead shafts, pressing the new tri-rings and washers into place. Install the new 691366 idler pulley onto the idler arm. Loop the new 341241 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing inward, then route it around the idler pulley and motor pulley. Reinstall the drum, reassemble the front and top panels, and restore power. Run a test cycle to confirm quiet operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, putty knife, needle-nose pliers, flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I replace all three parts at the same time?
The drum belt, idler pulley, and drum support rollers all work together as a system and wear at similar rates under the same conditions. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access any one of these parts, replacing all three in a single repair is far more cost-effective than replacing them one at a time — which would require three separate teardowns. This is the same reason the 4392065 maintenance kit was designed: one repair, all three parts, done.
What does each part in this kit do?
The 341241 drum belt wraps around the outside of the drum and connects to the idler pulley and motor pulley — the motor drives the belt, which spins the drum. The 691366 idler pulley maintains tension on the belt so it grips the drum and motor pulley properly. The 349241T drum rollers are support wheels mounted on the rear of the dryer that cradle and support the back edge of the drum as it rotates. All three are essential to smooth, quiet drum operation.
How is this kit different from the 4392067 repair kit?
The 4392065 and 4392067 kits are designed for different Whirlpool-family dryer generations. The 4392065 uses the 341241 belt (92-1/4" x 1/4", 4 ribs) and the 691366 idler pulley, and is for older 29-inch Whirlpool-family dryers. The 4392067 uses the 661570V belt (93-1/2" x 1/4", 4 ribs) and the W10837240 idler arm assembly, and is for newer Whirlpool-family dryers (those with the lint screen inside the door). Use your model number to confirm which kit fits your specific dryer before ordering.
Do I need to lubricate the drum rollers after installing?
No — the 349241T drum rollers include self-lubricating bearings and do not require any additional grease or oil after installation. Applying grease to self-lubricating rollers is not recommended and can actually attract lint and debris, causing the rollers to wear faster.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket kit?
This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM kit, but all three included components are manufactured from premium neoprene rubber, durable plastic, and metal to match the dimensions and performance of the original 4392065 kit parts.

XPARTCO WE25X205 Dryer Drum Bearing
The XPARTCO WE25X205 is an aftermarket replacement rear drum bearing kit for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore electric and gas dryers. The rear drum bearing supports the back of the drum and lets it turn smoothly and quietly as the belt drives it. When the bearing wears out, the drum starts to squeal, rumble, or grind while it turns, and a badly worn bearing can let the drum sit unevenly or scrape.
This is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement for the original GE kit. GE's catalog lists WE25X205 as superseded to WE25M40, and this listing covers both numbers. Because the drum has to come out to reach the bearing, it is a good time to inspect the drum belt, idler pulley, and drum glides and replace any that look worn.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WE25X205 Dryer Drum Bearing fixes a GE, Hotpoint, or Kenmore dryer that squeals, rumbles, or grinds when the drum turns. It replaces the rear drum bearing and is also listed under WE25M40. Classic symptom: a loud squeal or rumble that follows the drum and is there with or without heat.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Loud squealing or squeaking while the drum turns
Rumbling or grinding noise from the back of the dryer
Drum that wobbles, drags, or doesn't turn smoothly
Excess vibration during a cycle
Noise that continues even when the dryer is running without heat

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer before beginning, and shut off the gas supply first on gas models. Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. Remove the top and front panel as shown in your model's service guide, then lift the drum belt off and slide the drum out, which is easier with a second person. Remove the old rear bearing from the back panel, install the new one in the same position, and reassemble in reverse order. Check the belt, idler pulley, and drum glides while the drum is out and replace any that are worn. Plan on about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer squeals when the drum turns. Is this the part I need?
A squeal that follows the drum is most often a worn rear drum bearing, though a worn idler pulley or drum glides can make similar noise. If you can spin the drum by hand and feel roughness or hear grinding, the bearing is a likely cause.
What's the difference between WE25X205 and WE25M40?
GE's catalog lists WE25X205 as superseded to WE25M40, and retailers list them as interchangeable. This listing covers both numbers.
Should I replace the drum belt at the same time?
It's a good idea. The drum has to come out to reach the bearing, so this is the easiest time to inspect the belt, idler pulley, and drum glides and replace anything worn.
Will this fit my dryer?
It is listed for many GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore dryers, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

5303281153 Dryer Genuine OEM Rear Drum Bearing
The 5303281153 is a genuine Frigidaire OEM rear drum bearing kit for Frigidaire dryers, and also fits select Crosley, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, Kenmore, Tappan, and Westinghouse models. This ball-and-socket style bearing supports the rear of the dryer drum, reducing friction and allowing the drum to rotate smoothly and quietly throughout the drying cycle.
The bearing itself measures approximately 1-15/16"L x 1"W x 1-3/8"H, with mounting holes 1-1/2" apart, center to center. The holes in the metal mounting plate are not pre-threaded — the self-tapping screws included in the kit are what create the threads during installation. Common causes of failure include normal wear and tear, exposure to excessive heat or lint buildup, or physical damage from impact or overloading. Symptoms of a worn or failing rear drum bearing include excessive noise or grinding sounds, difficulty rotating the drum or a drum that won't turn at all, visible wear or damage on the bearing, or increased vibration and shaking during the drying cycle. It directly replaces AP2142648, 1851, 3281153, 5304459240, 85-852, AH459829, DE724, EA459829, PS459829, Q000142850, Q142850, WQ142850, 08015113, 08015324, 131378400, 131777700, 137088600, 137088620, 137088630, 175428, 175432, 175433, 31581400, 3281019, 3281020, 5303281019, and 5303281020.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Mounting Plate Holes Are Not Pre-Threaded Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the back panel and the drum belt to access the drum, then remove the drum itself to reach the rear bearing assembly. While the dryer is open, take the time to clean out any accumulated lint from inside the cabinet and around the motor, since buildup here is common and worth clearing while you have access. Remove the old bearing bracket, ball shaft, and related hardware. Apply the included high-temperature lubricant to the new Teflon shaft bearing and ball bearing as directed. Assemble the new ball shaft, bearing, and bracket, then mount the bracket to the rear bulkhead. The holes in the metal mounting plate are not pre-threaded — use the self-tapping screws included in the kit to thread the plate as you install them. If the included screws feel blunt or don't bite well, threading with your original screws first and then switching to the new screws for final installation can help. Reinstall the drum, making sure it seats correctly on the new bearing. Reattach the drum belt and back panel, and double check that no leftover screws remain before closing everything up. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm quiet, smooth drum rotation. Tools needed: nut driver, Phillips or square-drive screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer is making a loud grinding or squealing noise. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms of a worn rear drum bearing. One customer described their dryer as no longer "talking back" after the repair — no more chatter or grinding — confirming this bearing was the source of the noise.
Why does it matter that the mounting plate holes aren't pre-threaded?
Since the plate isn't pre-threaded, the self-tapping screws included in the kit have to cut their own threads as you install them, which takes a bit more care than screwing into an already-threaded hole. One customer found the included screws were blunt and didn't tap easily, and got better results starting the threads with their original, sharper screws before switching to the new screws for the final installation.
Should I clean anything else while I have the dryer open for this repair?
Yes, it's worth it. One customer found their motor "completely embedded with lint and animal hair" during this repair and spent extra time cleaning it out. Since you'll already have the back panel and drum removed, this is a good opportunity to clear out accumulated lint throughout the cabinet.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original bearing style, dimensions, and hardware configuration of the rear drum bearing kit originally installed in your dryer.

XPARTCO DC97-16782A Dryer Drum Roller
The XPARTCO DC97-16782A is an aftermarket replacement drum support roller compatible with select Samsung and Kenmore dryers. The drum roller is a rear support wheel that cradles the dryer drum and allows it to rotate smoothly during every drying cycle. Over time, the rollers wear down, causing the drum to wobble, squeak, or thump during operation — replacing them restores quiet, stable drum rotation.
This roller features a self-lubricating bushing and includes the roller shaft and mounting tri-ring clips for a complete, ready-to-install assembly. It measures approximately 3-1/4 inches in diameter and directly replaces OEM part numbers DC97-16782A, DC97-07523A, and DC97-07523B. Sold individually — most Samsung dryers use two rear drum rollers, so we recommend replacing both at the same time. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DC97-16782A Dryer Drum Roller fixes squeaking, thumping, or rumbling noises coming from Samsung and Kenmore dryers during operation. The drum roller supports the rear of the dryer drum — when worn, it causes noise and uneven drum rotation. Includes roller shaft and mounting clips. Approximately 3-1/4" diameter. Compatible with select Samsung and Kenmore dryers.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Loud squeaking, thumping, or rumbling noise during dryer operation
Drum wobbling or vibrating excessively during the drying cycle
Grinding or scraping sound as the drum rotates
Dryer making noise that gets worse over time
Visible flat spots, cracks, or worn surfaces on existing drum rollers
Drum not rotating smoothly or spinning unevenly
Replaces Part Numbers
This drum roller directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:
DC97-16782A, DC97-16782C, DC97-16782D, 2027851, DC97-07523A, DC97-07523B, PD00002021, EAP4221885, AP5325135, PS4221885, WPW10177428, AP6016361, W10177428, 35001136, DC97-07523A, ASM930889, PD00003650, EAP11749648, AP6016361, PS11749648.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Safety First — Unplug Dryer Before Starting Unplug the dryer from the power source (and shut off the gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair. To access the drum rollers, remove the top panel and front panel of the dryer, then release the drum belt tension at the idler pulley and lift the drum out of the cabinet. The two rear drum rollers are located on the rear bulkhead. Remove the mounting clip, slide the old roller off the shaft, and install the new DC97-16782A roller — the shaft thread is clockwise. Reinstall the mounting clip to secure the roller. Replace both rear rollers at the same time even if only one appears worn. Reassemble the dryer, restore power, and run a test cycle. Tip: While the drum is out, inspect and replace the drum belt (6602-001655) and idler pulley (DC93-00634A) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many drum rollers does my Samsung dryer need?
Most Samsung dryers have two rear drum support rollers. This listing is for a single roller. We strongly recommend replacing both rollers at the same time — even if only one appears damaged — since they wear at the same rate and replacing both prevents the need to disassemble the dryer again soon after.
What does the drum roller do?
The drum rollers are support wheels mounted on the rear bulkhead of the dryer. They cradle the back edge of the dryer drum and allow it to spin smoothly during operation. When the rollers wear down or develop flat spots, the drum wobbles and creates loud squeaking, thumping, or grinding noises.
Does DC97-16782A replace DC97-07523A and DC97-07523B?
Yes. The DC97-16782A is the updated part number that directly supersedes both DC97-07523A and DC97-07523B. If your dryer originally used either of those older part numbers, the DC97-16782A is the correct current replacement.
Should I also replace the drum belt and idler pulley at the same time?
Yes — since the dryer is already fully disassembled to replace the rollers, it is highly recommended to also inspect and replace the drum belt (6602-001655) and idler pulley (DC93-00634A) at the same time. These three parts wear together and are commonly sold as a dryer repair kit, saving you from having to take the dryer apart again in the near future.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is made from durable rubber, plastic, and metal to match the dimensions and performance of the original DC97-16782A roller.

XPARTCO WE03X37317 - WE03X37318 Dryer Drum Glide Set
The XPARTCO WE03X37317 - WE03X37318 is an aftermarket replacement drum glide set for GE and Hotpoint dryers, also used on select Whirlpool and Kenmore dryers and washer-dryer combos. These plastic bearing slides are the wear pads at the front of the dryer that the drum rides on as it turns. As they wear down, the drum no longer sits and rolls smoothly, and the dryer starts to squeak, squeal, or rumble. In worse cases the drum catches or drags, and clothes can get snagged or marked between the drum and the front frame.
This set pairs both glide types used on these dryers: the WE03X37317 and the WE03X37318 front bearing slides. Because the slides wear at the same rate, replacing them together restores smooth, quiet drum rotation and avoids a repeat repair. Easy to install, typically 30–60 minutes.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WE03X37317 - WE03X37318 Drum Glide Set fixes a GE or Hotpoint dryer that squeaks, squeals, or rumbles loudly as the drum turns, or whose drum drags or catches. Replaces both the WE03X37317 and WE03X37318 front bearing slides. Classic symptom: a loud squeal or scraping noise from the drum area that gets worse over the cycle, sometimes with marks or snags on clothes.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Loud squeaking, squealing, or scraping noise while the drum tumbles
Drum not spinning smoothly, or dragging and catching
Marks, wrinkles, or snags on clothes from items catching between the drum and the front frame
Excessive drum noise during drying cycles
Visibly worn, thin, or chewed-up plastic glides at the front of the drum

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker, and shut off the gas supply first if it's a gas model. Remove the top and front panels per your model's service guide to expose the front of the drum, and disconnect any wiring that's in the way. Lift or support the drum enough to reach the worn glides, which are held in place at the front bearing support. Pull out the old glides, noting the position and orientation of each, and fit the new ones in the same positions. Reassemble the dryer and spin the drum by hand to confirm it turns smoothly before restoring power. Replace the glides as a set, since they wear at the same rate.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer squeals or rumbles loudly while tumbling — is this the part I need?
Worn drum glides are a very common cause of squeaking and scraping from the drum area. If the plastic glides look thin, grooved, or chewed up, replacing them should quiet the dryer and restore smooth rotation. Also check the drum rollers and idler pulley, which can cause similar noises.
Why are there two different part numbers?
GE uses two glide types at the front of the drum: glide (WE03X37317) and glide (WE03X37318). This set covers both, so you can replace the full set in one go.
Should I replace all the glides or just the worn ones?
Replace them together. The glides wear at about the same rate, so if one is worn the others are usually close behind.
Will this fit my Whirlpool or Kenmore dryer?
These glides are cross-listed for select Whirlpool and Kenmore dryers and washer-dryer combos as well as GE and Hotpoint. Compare the part numbers on your parts diagram against the Replaces list, or contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm.
