XPARTCO W10837240 Dryer Idler Pulley
The XPARTCO W10837240 is an aftermarket replacement idler pulley assembly compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Crosley, Admiral, Inglis, and Roper dryers. The idler pulley maintains correct tension on the drive belt, allowing the belt to spin the dryer drum smoothly and consistently. When the idler pulley wears out, the belt loses tension — causing squeaking, grinding noises, or a drum that stops spinning entirely.
This complete assembly includes the idler arm, pulley, and bracket — everything needed for a direct drop-in installation. The pulley is 2-1/8 inches in diameter and the overall assembly measures 6-1/4" L x 1-1/4" W x 3-7/16" H. It directly replaces OEM part numbers W10837240, W10547287, and W10547290, and fits Whirlpool-family dryers with the lint screen located inside the door. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

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. 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 and drive components. Release the drive belt tension by pushing the idler arm, then slide the belt off the idler pulley. Remove the mounting screw securing the old idler arm assembly and lift it out. Install the new W10837240 idler assembly, secure with the mounting screw, then re-route the drive belt around the new pulley and motor pulley. Reassemble the front panel, top panel, and restore power before running a test cycle. Tip: While the dryer is open, inspect the drum belt (WPW10112954) and drum support rollers for wear and replace if needed. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the idler pulley do?
The idler pulley is a spring-tensioned wheel mounted on an arm and bracket inside the dryer. It presses against the drive belt to maintain the correct tension needed to keep the belt gripping the drum and motor pulley. Without proper tension, the belt slips, loses contact, or causes the drum to stop spinning. A worn or seized idler pulley is one of the most common causes of dryer squeaking and drum spin failure.
Does W10837240 replace W10547287 and W10547290?
Yes. The W10837240 is the updated part number that directly supersedes both the W10547287 and W10547290 idler pulley assemblies. If your dryer originally used either of those older part numbers, the W10837240 is the correct current replacement.
How do I know if my lint screen is inside the door?
Open the dryer door and look for a slot or housing just inside the door opening — typically at the top or bottom of the door opening — where you pull out the lint filter. If the filter pulls out from inside the door frame, the W10837240 is designed for your dryer style. If the lint screen pulls out from the top of the dryer cabinet, contact our support team with your model number to identify the correct idler pulley for your machine.
Should I replace the drive belt at the same time?
Yes — since the dryer is already disassembled to replace the idler pulley, it is highly recommended to also inspect and replace the drum belt (WPW10112954) at the same time. The belt and idler pulley wear together, and a worn belt on a new pulley — or vice versa — significantly shortens the life of the new part.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic and metal to match the dimensions and performance of the original W10837240 idler pulley assembly.

EXP651 Dryer Belt and Idler Pulley Kit Replaces WPW10112954, W10837240
The EXP651 is an aftermarket dryer repair kit containing two essential drum drive components for select Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Crosley, Admiral, Inglis, and Roper dryers. The kit includes one drum belt (replaces WPW10112954) and one idler pulley assembly with bracket (replaces W10837240) — the two parts most commonly worn together when a dryer drum stops spinning or becomes noisy.
Replacing both the belt and idler pulley at the same time is the smart repair choice. Since the dryer must be disassembled to access either part, doing both in one repair saves you from having to take the machine apart again if the second part fails shortly after. This kit covers the two most common failure points in the Whirlpool-family dryer drum drive system.
Quick Answer
The EXP651 Dryer Belt and Idler Pulley Kit fixes dryers where the drum is not spinning, making loud squeaking or grinding noises, or the belt has broken. Includes one 93-1/4" x 5/16" 5-rib drum belt (WPW10112954) and one idler pulley assembly with bracket (W10837240). Compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Crosley, Admiral, Inglis, and Roper dryers.

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. Remove the lint screen, then 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 and drive components. Release belt tension at the old idler pulley, lift the drum slightly, and slide the old belt off. Remove the old idler arm assembly by unscrewing the mounting screw, then install the new W10837240 idler pulley assembly and secure with the screw. Loop the new WPW10112954 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing inward, then route it around the new idler pulley and motor pulley. Consult your model's service manual or a model-specific repair video for the correct belt path. Reassemble and run a test cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I replace the belt and idler pulley at the same time?
The belt and idler pulley wear together — when one fails, the other is usually close behind. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access either part, replacing both in a single repair saves you from having to take the machine apart again soon after. It also protects the new belt from being damaged by a worn pulley, and vice versa.
How does the W10837240 differ from other Whirlpool idler pulleys?
The W10837240 is the updated idler pulley arm and bracket assembly designed for Whirlpool-family dryers that have the lint screen inside the door. It replaces the older W10547287 and W10547290 assemblies. Some older or different Whirlpool models use a different idler pulley style — if you're unsure which one your dryer needs, contact our support team with your model number before ordering.
What is the difference between WPW10112954 and W10112954?
These are the same belt. WPW10112954 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original W10112954. Both refer to the identical drum belt included in this kit.
Should I also replace the drum rollers at the same time?
It depends on the condition of your rollers. Since the dryer is already fully disassembled, it is a good opportunity to inspect the drum support rollers for flat spots, cracks, or wobbling. If they show any wear, replacing them at the same time is recommended to avoid a third disassembly. Check your model's roller part number before ordering.
Are these OEM or aftermarket parts?
Both parts in this kit are aftermarket replacements built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. They are not genuine Whirlpool OEM parts, but are manufactured to match the dimensions and performance of the original WPW10112954 belt and W10837240 idler pulley assembly.

Without a functioning belt, the drum cannot spin and clothes will not tumble or dry.
Made from high-strength rubber with reinforced ribs, this belt measures 92-1/4 inches long x 1/4 inch wide and features 4 ribs and 3 grooves. It is flat on one side and ribbed on the other, and is built to resist cracking, stretching, and wear under the high heat and repeated tension cycles of daily dryer use. It also replaces some 5-rib, 4-groove belts. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.

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. Remove the lint screen, then unscrew the two Phillips screws inside the lint filter housing. Use a putty knife 2 inches from each front corner 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, lift the drum slightly, and slide the old belt off. Loop the new 341241 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing down (toward the drum). Route the belt around the idler pulley and motor pulley — consult your model's service manual or a model-specific video for the correct belt path. Reassemble and run a test cycle. Tip: While the drum is out, inspect and replace the idler pulley (691366) and drum rollers (349241T) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 341241 differ from the W10205415 and 6602-001655 belts?
All three are 92-inch dryer drum belts, but they differ in width and rib count. The 341241 is 1/4" wide with 4 ribs and 3 grooves. The W10205415 is 3/8" wide with 5 ribs and 4 grooves. The 6602-001655 is 5/16" wide with 5 ribs and 4 grooves designed for Samsung dryers. Always match the part number to your specific model — do not substitute based on appearance alone.
Will this belt fit my Kenmore dryer?
Many Kenmore dryers — especially the popular 110-series — are manufactured by Whirlpool and use the 341241 belt. Check your model number against the compatibility list and contact our support team if you need help confirming the fit before ordering.
How do I know if my drum belt needs to be replaced?
The most obvious sign is that the dryer motor hums but the drum does not spin. You may also notice a thumping or slapping sound during operation, a burning rubber smell, or clothes that are damp after a full cycle. Open the dryer cabinet to visually confirm if the belt is broken, frayed, or stretched.
Should I also replace the idler pulley and drum rollers?
Yes — since the dryer is already disassembled, it is highly recommended to inspect and replace the idler pulley (691366) and drum support rollers (349241T) at the same time. These parts wear at a similar rate and replacing all three together — often sold as a repair kit — prevents having to disassemble the dryer again in the near future.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications. It is the exact same belt that came installed in your dryer from the factory — same materials, dimensions, and performance.

XPARTCO 4561EL3002A Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly
The XPARTCO 4561EL3002A is an aftermarket replacement dryer idler pulley assembly compatible with select LG and Kenmore electric and gas dryers. The idler pulley assembly is a spring-tensioned arm, pulley wheel, and spring kit that presses against the drive belt to keep it under constant tension as it wraps around the drum and motor pulley. Without correct belt tension, the belt slips, the drum stops spinning, and the dryer tumbles clothes poorly or not at all. A worn idler pulley bearing is also one of the most common causes of squealing, squeaking, and thumping noises in LG dryers.
This complete assembly includes the idler arm, pulley wheel, and idler spring. Overall dimensions are 5-3/4"L x 2-1/4"W x 3-7/8"H with a 2-1/4" diameter pulley wheel. Constructed from plastic and metal in white, black, and gray. It directly replaces 4561EL3002B, DE3002A, 4980EL3004, 1267530, AP4438243, AH3523033, EA3523033, EAP3523033, PD00001729, and PS3523033. Note: the pulley wheel only (without arm and spring) is sold separately as APN4560EL3001A — this listing is for the complete idler assembly. Often replaced together with the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum rollers (4581EL2002A) for a complete drum drive repair. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 4561EL3002A Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly fixes LG and Kenmore dryers that are squealing, thumping, or where the drum has stopped spinning because belt tension is lost. Complete assembly — idler arm, pulley wheel, and spring included. 5-3/4"L x 2-1/4"W x 3-7/8"H overall; 2-1/4" pulley diameter.

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 idler pulley by removing the back panel of the dryer (on most LG models) or the front panel and top panel. Take a photo of the belt routing around the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley before removing anything — this is essential for correct reassembly. Release belt tension by pressing the idler arm toward the motor and sliding the belt free. Remove the idler spring from its anchor point, then unclip or unscrew the idler arm from its mounting bracket. Install the new 4561EL3002A idler assembly in the same position — hook the spring onto its anchor point first, then mount the arm. Re-route the belt around the drum (ribbed side in), under the idler pulley, and around the motor pulley, then allow the idler arm to tension the belt. Reassemble panels, restore power, and run a test cycle. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect and replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum rollers (4581EL2002A) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver (T20 on some models), needle-nose pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the dryer idler pulley do?
The idler pulley is a spring-loaded arm and wheel assembly that presses against the drive belt between the drum and the motor pulley, keeping the belt under constant tension. This tension is what allows the belt to grip both the drum surface and the motor pulley so the motor's rotation is transmitted to spin the drum. Without proper tension — or with a pulley bearing that has seized or worn out — the belt slips, the drum stops spinning, and the dryer produces heat without tumbling clothes. A worn bearing also creates the high-pitched squealing noise that is the most recognizable symptom of idler pulley failure on LG dryers.
What is the difference between 4561EL3002A and 4561EL3002B?
These are the same LG dryer idler pulley assembly across two production revisions. The 4561EL3002B was an earlier version and the 4561EL3002A is the current part number. Both are the same functional assembly — if your dryer's parts diagram shows 4561EL3002B, the 4561EL3002A is the correct current replacement and is covered by this listing.
Should I also replace the drum belt and rollers at the same time?
Yes — since the dryer must be disassembled to replace the idler pulley, this is the ideal time to also inspect and replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum support rollers (4581EL2002A). All three parts form the drum drive system and wear at similar rates. A worn roller or belt is often what caused the idler pulley to wear prematurely. Replacing all three in one repair eliminates the most common drum drive failure points and prevents a repeat teardown in the near future.
Can I just replace the pulley wheel without the arm and spring?
Yes — the pulley wheel alone (without the arm and spring) is sold separately as part number APN4560EL3001A. If only the wheel bearing has failed and the arm and spring are in good condition, you can order just the wheel. However, if the arm is cracked, the spring has lost tension, or both the wheel and arm have significant wear, ordering the complete 4561EL3002A assembly is more cost-effective and ensures the entire idler system is renewed in a single repair.
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 plastic and metal to match the dimensions and performance of the original 4561EL3002A idler pulley assembly.

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. Remove the lint screen, then unscrew the two Phillips screws inside the lint filter housing. Use a putty knife 2 inches from each front corner 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, lift the drum slightly, and slide the old belt off. Loop the new 341241 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing down (toward the drum). Route the belt around the idler pulley and motor pulley — consult your model's service manual or a model-specific video for the correct belt path. Reassemble and run a test cycle. Tip: While the drum is out, inspect and replace the idler pulley (691366) and drum rollers (349241T) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 341241 differ from the W10205415 and 6602-001655 belts?
All three are 92-inch dryer drum belts, but they differ in width and rib count. The 341241 is 1/4" wide with 4 ribs and 3 grooves. The W10205415 is 3/8" wide with 5 ribs and 4 grooves. The 6602-001655 is 5/16" wide with 5 ribs and 4 grooves designed for Samsung dryers. Always match the part number to your specific model — do not substitute based on appearance alone.
Will this belt fit my Kenmore dryer?
Many Kenmore dryers — especially the popular 110-series — are manufactured by Whirlpool and use the 341241 belt. Check your model number against the compatibility list and contact our support team if you need help confirming the fit before ordering.
How do I know if my drum belt needs to be replaced?
The most obvious sign is that the dryer motor hums but the drum does not spin. You may also notice a thumping or slapping sound during operation, a burning rubber smell, or clothes that are damp after a full cycle. Open the dryer cabinet to visually confirm if the belt is broken, frayed, or stretched.
Should I also replace the idler pulley and drum rollers?
Yes — since the dryer is already disassembled, it is highly recommended to inspect and replace the idler pulley (691366) and drum support rollers (349241T) at the same time. These parts wear at a similar rate and replacing all three together — often sold as a repair kit — prevents having to disassemble the dryer again in the near future.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is made from high-strength rubber to match the dimensions and performance of the original 341241 belt.

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. 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 the belt from the idler pulley, lift the drum slightly, and slide the old belt off. Loop the new 661570 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing inward toward the drum. Route the belt around the idler pulley and motor pulley — consult your dryer's service manual or a model-specific repair video for the correct belt path. Reassemble and run a test cycle. Tip: While the drum is out, inspect and replace the idler pulley (W10837240) and drum rollers (WPW10314173) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 661570 and 661570V?
These are the same belt. 661570V is the updated OEM part number (the "V" denotes the current version) that superseded the original 661570. Both numbers refer to the identical drum belt — this aftermarket replacement is compatible with both.
How does the 661570 differ from the 341241 and W10205415 belts?
All three are Whirlpool-family dryer drum belts, but they differ in length, width, and rib count. The 661570 is 93-1/2" long x 1/4" wide with 4 ribs and 3 grooves. The 341241 is 92-1/4" long x 1/4" wide with 4 ribs and 3 grooves. The W10205415 is 92" long x 3/8" wide with 5 ribs and 4 grooves. They are not interchangeable — always use the part number specific to your dryer model.
How do I know if my drum belt is broken?
The most obvious sign is that the dryer motor hums but the drum does not spin. You may also notice a thumping or slapping sound, a burning rubber smell, or damp clothes after a full drying cycle. Open the dryer cabinet to visually confirm if the belt is broken, frayed, or stretched out of shape.
Should I also replace the idler pulley and drum rollers?
Yes — since the dryer is already disassembled, it is highly recommended to inspect and replace the idler pulley (W10837240) and drum support rollers (WPW10314173) at the same time. All three parts wear together and are sold together in the 4392067 dryer repair kit. Replacing all three prevents having to disassemble the dryer 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 Whirlpool OEM part, but is made from high-strength rubber to match the dimensions and performance of the original 661570V belt.
