XPARTCO WH05X24185 Washer Clutch
The XPARTCO WH05X24185 is an aftermarket replacement clutch for GE top-load washers, and also fits select Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café models. This clutch engages and disengages the transmission during the wash and spin cycles, transferring the motor's power to spin the basket so your clothes finish damp rather than soaked.
Made of white plastic with a glossy finish, measuring approximately 3"L x 3"W x 1"H. Sold individually and does not include any other parts, such as the shift actuator (our WH03X30517 listing) that works alongside it. Common causes of failure include wear and tear over time, excessive load, or mechanical obstruction. Symptoms of a worn or failing clutch include clothes coming out wet even after a completed spin cycle, a slight burning odor during operation, or issues with spinning or agitating. It directly replaces WH05X24185, 4588013, AGE26046, AP5993402, EAP11729473, PD00043605, PS11729473.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WH05X24185 Washer Clutch fixes GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café top-load washers where clothes come out wet after spinning, there's a slight burning odor during operation, or the washer has trouble spinning or agitating. White plastic, glossy finish, ~3"L x 3"W x 1"H. Sold individually. Replaces WH05X24185, 4588013, AGE26046, AP5993402, EAP11729473, PD00043605, PS11729473. If you also see grease pooling on the floor under the washer, that's more likely a transmission gearcase leak than this clutch — and if the agitator only slips in one direction, check the agitator bolt before assuming the clutch has failed.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Clothes coming out wet even after a completed spin cycle
Slight burning odor during operation
Washer having trouble spinning or agitating
Reduced washer performance from clutch wear
Grinding or unusual noise tied to the transmission area

Compatibility

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning to cut off electricity and prevent accidental shocks. Wear work gloves. Remove the two screws at the back of the washer with a Phillips head screwdriver, then pull off the main console and carefully set it aside. Locate the access plate on the transmission side and remove the screws securing it. Take the belt off the pulley and remove the belt guard. Remove the four screws that secure the clutch and take it off from the wet end of the transmission. Install the new WH05X24185 clutch and replace the four screws. Reattach the belt, pulley, and access plate, and replace their screws. Put the main console back onto the washer and secure it with the two screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm clothes are coming out properly damp at the end of the spin cycle, with no burning odor or unusual noise. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, socket wrench, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My clothes come out wet after the spin cycle. Is this the clutch I need?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms of a worn or failing clutch. Since this clutch is what engages the transmission to spin the basket at high speed, a worn clutch can slip rather than fully engaging, leaving clothes wetter than they should be at the end of the cycle. A slight burning odor during operation is another documented sign of the same wear.
I noticed grease on the floor under my washer. Is that this clutch leaking?
Not directly — grease pooling under the washer typically comes from the gearcase transmission itself rather than the clutch. If you're seeing this symptom, the transmission may need attention in addition to, or instead of, this clutch, depending on what else you're experiencing.
My agitator slips going one direction but not the other. Is that the clutch?
Not necessarily. This specific symptom — the agitator pulling fine in one direction but slipping in the other — is more often traced to a loose agitator bolt. It's worth checking and tightening that bolt first; if the problem persists, the agitator base hybrid assembly may need inspection before assuming this clutch is at fault.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the material, dimensions, and mounting configuration of the original WH05X24185 clutch used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café top-load washers.

XPARTCO 137292700 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO 137292700 is an aftermarket replacement multi-rib drum belt for Frigidaire stacked laundry center (combination washer/dryer) units, and also fits select Crosley, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, Kenmore, Tappan, and White Westinghouse combo models. This belt attaches to the motor pulley and spins the drum as the motor rotates, keeping clothes tumbling evenly throughout the drying cycle.
Measures approximately 89-1/2" long and 1/4" wide, with multiple ribs. Over time, this belt naturally dries out, cracks, or breaks from regular use.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug The Laundry Center Before Starting Disconnect power to the laundry center unit at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. This repair is best approached from the top down: remove the top of the unit first, which gives more room to get the dryer tub out. Remove the two screws from the vented plate on the back of the machine to access and undo the old belt. Since this is a stackable washer/dryer combo, also remove the white plate on the front between the washer and dryer sections for full access. Locate the old belt connecting the motor pulley to the drum and remove it. Fit the new 137292700 belt around the drum and motor pulley in the same path as the old one, making sure it seats correctly and is properly tensioned. Reassemble the front plate, vented back plate, and top of the unit. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the drum tumbles smoothly with no banging or unusual noise. Tools needed: putty knife, screwdriver set, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
The motor is running but the drum won't turn. Is this the belt I need?
Yes, this is the classic and most reliable sign of a broken drum belt. If you can hear the motor running normally but the drum itself stays still, the belt has likely dried out and broken, no longer connecting the motor's rotation to the drum.
Is this the same as a standalone Frigidaire dryer belt?
No, this belt is specifically sized and profiled for Frigidaire-style stacked laundry center units, where the washer and dryer are combined into one appliance. It's a different part from standalone Frigidaire dryer belts used on separate dryers. Confirm your unit type and model number before ordering.
Is this a difficult repair?
It's a moderate repair since it involves removing the top of the laundry center unit, the vented back plate, and the front plate between the washer and dryer sections to get full access to the belt. One customer described working from the top down as the easiest approach, since it gives more room to remove the dryer tub.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Frigidaire OEM part, but is manufactured to match the length, width, and rib pattern of the original 137292700 multi-rib drum belt used in compatible Frigidaire, Crosley, Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, Kenmore, Tappan, and White Westinghouse laundry center units.

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 belt, remove the top panel and front panel of the dryer. Lift the drum out of the cabinet, remove the old belt, and loop the new W10112954 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 around the pulleys. Reassemble the front panel, top panel, and restore power before running a test cycle. Tip: While the drum is out, inspect and replace the idler pulley and drum support rollers if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between W10112954 and WPW10112954?
These are the same belt. WPW10112954 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original W10112954 number. Both refer to the identical drum belt — this aftermarket replacement is compatible with both.
How does the W10112954 differ from the W10205415 belt?
Both are 5-rib Whirlpool-family belts, but they differ slightly in length and width. The W10112954 is 93-1/4" long x 5/16" wide. The W10205415 is 92" long x 3/8" wide. 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 runs and you can hear it humming, but the drum does not spin. You may also hear a thumping or slapping sound if the belt is partially broken or slipping. Open the dryer cabinet to visually inspect the belt and confirm if it is broken, frayed, or stretched out of shape.
Does the W10112954 also replace W10131172?
Yes — the W10112954 belt replaces W10131172 on compatible models. Both are 5-rib Whirlpool-family drum belts used across similar model ranges. Always verify your specific model number to confirm the correct belt before ordering.
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 durable rubber to match the dimensions and performance of the original WPW10112954 belt.

XPARTCO 3394652 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO 3394652 is an aftermarket replacement drum belt for Whirlpool electric and gas dryers, and also fits select Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Roper, Estate, Admiral, Hardwick, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Modern Maid, Amana, Caloric, and Ikea models. This belt circles the drum and attaches to the motor pulley and idler pulley, transmitting the motor's rotation to spin the drum and keep clothes tumbling evenly throughout the drying cycle.
Measures approximately 79-1/8" long, 1/4" wide, flat with 4 ribs and 3 grooves. Over time, the belt wears down or snaps from constant friction and tension. If the dryer's motor is running but the drum won't turn, this belt has likely broken or worn through. Symptoms of a failing belt include the drum not spinning, the dryer failing to start, unusual or loud noise, no heat or insufficient heat, drying taking too long, a burning smell, or the touchpad not responding. It directly replaces AP2946614, 26000345675, 2823, 345675, 4319392, 790H4, 8066064, AH345337, B78448, EA345337, ER3394652, ER345675, LB278, P46-153, PS345337, and TJ90LP278.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the top and front panels of the dryer to access the drum and belt path. Release tension from the idler pulley and remove the old belt. Wrap the new 3394652 belt around the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley, making sure it seats correctly in the grooves along the entire path. Pull the belt tight and reapply tension through the idler pulley. Before closing everything up, rotate the drum by hand to confirm smooth movement without hesitation. Reassemble the front and top panels. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the drum tumbles smoothly with no unusual noise. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, putty knife, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
The motor is running but the drum won't turn. Is this the belt?
Yes, this is the classic and most reliable sign of a broken drum belt. If you can hear the motor running normally but the drum itself stays still, there's a good chance the belt has snapped or worn through and is no longer connecting the motor's rotation to the drum.
My dryer isn't heating. Could the belt really be involved?
On some models, yes indirectly — a broken belt can affect a door switch or safety interlock that also gates the heating circuit, so a belt failure can occasionally present as a no-heat or insufficient-heat symptom in addition to the more obvious lack of tumbling.
Is this a difficult repair?
It's a moderate repair requiring basic hand tools and some dryer disassembly, typically taking 15 to 30 minutes. Removing the top and front panels to access the drum and belt path is the most involved part of the process.
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 to match the length, width, and rib pattern of the original 3394652 drum belt used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and related electric and gas dryers.

12638000004021 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Drum Roller
The 12638000004021 is a genuine Midea OEM dryer drum support roller, sold under the Frigidaire/Midea manufacturing relationship for Midea-built dryers and select Frigidaire, Insignia, and Kenmore dryers using this same platform. This roller sits underneath the drum, along its rear support track, and does the physical work of holding the drum's weight while letting it turn freely as the belt drives it around. A dryer typically uses more than one of these rollers working together to keep the drum properly supported and centered.
Over time, the wheel and bearing inside the roller wear down from the constant heat and rotation the dryer subjects them to, eventually developing a flat spot, seizing up, or simply wearing thin enough that the drum sits unevenly. A worn roller produces a distinctive symptom: a rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise that rises and falls with drum rotation, often getting louder as a load tumbles. It directly replaces 5304511415, AP7990985.
Quick Answer

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. On a gas model, also close the gas shutoff valve before moving the cabinet. Wear work gloves — sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. Access is typically through the rear panel: remove the screws securing the panel, then release the drum belt from the idler pulley to relieve tension so the drum can be supported and moved slightly for access to the rollers underneath. Photograph the roller and axle positions before removing anything. Remove the retaining clip or fastener holding the worn roller's axle in place, then slide the old roller off. Install the new 12638000004021 roller onto the axle in the same orientation, and secure it with the retaining clip or fastener. While you're in there, check the other rollers by spinning each one by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or worn, replace them at the same time, since they're typically the same age and wear on a similar schedule. Re-tension the belt around the idler pulley, reassemble the rear panel, restore power, and run a short empty cycle to confirm the noise has resolved. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer makes a rumbling noise that gets louder over time. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is the classic symptom of a worn drum roller. As the wheel and bearing wear down, the noise typically starts subtle and gradually worsens, often becoming most noticeable with a full load as the extra weight puts more load on the worn wheel. If the noise rises and falls in rhythm with the drum turning, a roller is the most likely cause.
Should I replace just one roller, or all of them?
It's worth checking all of them while you have access. Dryers typically use more than one roller supporting the drum, and since they're the same age and under the same stress, if one has worn out the others are often not far behind. Spin each roller by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or rough, replace them together to avoid repeating this repair again soon.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Midea to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original wheel design, bearing, and axle fitment of the drum roller originally installed in your dryer.

XPARTCO WE12X10014 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO WE12X10014 is an aftermarket replacement drum belt for GE electric and gas dryers, and also fits select Hotpoint, RCA, Kenmore, and Whirlpool models. This is the most common belt used across this dryer platform. This flat belt wraps around the drum, motor pulley, and idler/tensioner pulley, transmitting the motor's rotation to spin the drum and keep clothes tumbling evenly throughout the drying cycle.
Measures 87.875" long, 1/4" wide, flat with 4 ridges on one side. Over time, the belt dries out, cracks, or breaks from age and regular use. If the dryer motor is running but the drum won't rotate, the belt has likely broken. Symptoms of a failing or broken belt include the drum not spinning even though the motor runs, unusual noise during operation, or the dryer not tumbling clothes at all. It directly replaces WE12X10014, 103C7487, 1472898, WE12X0042, WE12X0082, WE12X42, WE12X42-, WE12X42P, WE12X42R, WE12X82, WE12X82E, WE12X82P, WE12X82R, 132C7487P004, AH2350043, EA2350043, PD00000990, EAP2350043, AGE25021, AP4379804, PS2350043
Quick Answer

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Clean Drum Dust With Glass Cleaner, Not Soap Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the screws on the back panel and pull the dryer away from the wall for access, or access from the front panel depending on your model — look down inside the front panel for two bolts holding the front assembly in place, removable with a 5/16" socket, taking care to disconnect the friction-fit door switch sensor wires as you pull the panel away. Locate the drive belt and tension pulley. Release tension on the idler pulley and remove the old belt from the motor pulley and drum. If the belt was broken, take note of its orientation and routing path before removing any remnants, since figuring out how it wraps around the tensioner is the trickiest part of reinstallation. Dust buildup on the drum can cause the new belt to slip — clean the drum thoroughly with glass cleaner and a paper towel before installing the new belt. Do not use a soapy cleaner, since soap residue will cause the belt to slip. Feed the new WE12X10014 belt around the drum, then through the idler pulley and motor pulley, matching the original routing. Pull the belt tight, re-tension the idler pulley, and rotate the drum by hand with the front cover off to confirm smooth movement before reassembling. Reinstall the front or back panel. Don't forget to reconnect the exhaust vent hose before restoring power, or you may blow lint and dust throughout your laundry room on the first run. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm smooth, quiet tumbling. Tools needed: 5/16" socket, Phillips screwdriver, adjustable wrench, glass cleaner, paper towels, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
The motor is running but the drum won't turn. Is this the belt?
Yes, this is the classic and most reliable sign of a broken drum belt. If you can hear the motor running normally but the drum itself stays still, there's a good chance the belt has snapped and is no longer connecting the motor's rotation to the drum.
Why does the installation guide mention cleaning the drum with glass cleaner specifically?
Dust that accumulates inside the drum over time can cause a new belt to slip against the drum surface, undermining the repair before it even gets a fair test. Glass cleaner and a paper towel remove this dust effectively. Avoid soapy cleaners, since soap residue left behind has the same slipping effect you're trying to prevent.
Any tips for figuring out how the belt routes around the tensioner?
If your old belt broke rather than simply wearing thin, take a photo of any remaining belt pieces and their position before removing them completely, since this shows you the correct routing path. One customer specifically noted that figuring out how the belt goes around the tensioner in the proper orientation was the trickiest part of the whole repair — a reference photo or a quick look at an installation video for your model helps considerably.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the length, width, and rib pattern of the original WE12X10014 drum belt used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Kenmore, and Whirlpool electric and gas dryers.

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. Replaces 4581EL2002A, 4581EL2002B, 4581EL2002D, 4581EL2002E, 4581EL3001A, 4581EL3001C, 4581EL3001F, DE2002A, 2701044, AP5688895, PS8260240. 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
Scraping or grinding noise — roller wheel surface worn flat and dragging against the drum rim
Excessive vibration during the drying cycle

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.

XPARTCO DC97-16350U Washer Suspension Rod Kit (Set of 4)
The XPARTCO DC97-16350U is an aftermarket replacement washer suspension rod kit (set of 4) compatible with a wide range of Samsung top-load washers in the WA40, WA41, WA42, WA44, WA45, WA49, and WA50 series. The suspension rods are spring-loaded shock-absorbing rods that connect the outer washer tub to the top corners of the cabinet frame, suspending the tub and dampening the vibrations generated during agitation and high-speed spin cycles. When one or more rods lose tension, break, or degrade, the tub swings off-center and strikes the cabinet walls — causing violent shaking, loud banging, error code dc (out of balance), UE imbalance errors, and progressive damage to the machine.
Each rod measures 26.4–26.5 inches in overall length and 1-1/4 inches in diameter, constructed from spring steel with plastic end caps. The kit includes all 4 suspension rods — always replace all four at the same time since they wear at the same rate. It directly replaces DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, DC97-16350D, DC97-16350K, DC97-05280W, 4962798, AP6884450, EAP12720841, PS12720841, and PD00065434. Wear gloves during installation — the rods are coated with grease. Installs in 20–30 minutes — no special tools required.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DC97-16350U Washer Suspension Rod Kit fixes Samsung top-load washers that vibrate violently, bang loudly, walk across the floor, or display dc or UE imbalance error codes during spin. Set of 4 rods, 26.4–26.5" long, 1-1/4" diameter, spring steel with plastic end caps. Replace all 4 at the same time. Wear gloves — rods are greased. Compatible with Samsung WA40–WA50 series. Replaces DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, DC97-16350D, AP6884450, PS12720841.
Common Problems This Kit Fixes
Washer vibrating violently or shaking excessively during the spin cycle
Loud banging or thumping — tub striking the cabinet walls during spin
Washer "walking" or moving across the floor during high-speed spin
Error code dc displayed — Samsung out-of-balance error during spin
Error code UE displayed — unbalanced load error the washer cannot self-correct
Washer repeatedly stopping and rebalancing the load without completing the spin cycle
Visible broken, detached, or sagging suspension rod inside the washer cabinet
Rattling or clunking during agitation — tub no longer centered

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves throughout — the suspension rods are coated with grease. Remove the lid and the top panel (typically secured by screws under the lid hinge covers and at the rear corners). With the top panel removed, the four suspension rods are visible at the corners, each running from a mounting point on the tub rim up to a hook or bracket at the top corners of the cabinet frame. Note the orientation and attachment method of each rod before removing. Unhook the top of each rod from the cabinet bracket and lift the bottom cup off the tub mounting pin. Install each new DC97-16350U rod by seating the bottom cup onto the tub mounting pin and hooking the top over the cabinet bracket. Replace all four rods before reassembling. Reinstall the top panel and lid, restore power and water, and run a spin cycle to verify smooth, quiet, centered operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver; no special tools required for the rods themselves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DC97-16350U and DC97-16350V?
Both are Samsung top-load washer suspension rods, but they are different lengths for different washer capacity generations. The DC97-16350U is approximately 26.4–26.5 inches long and is used on mid-capacity Samsung WA40 through WA50 series washers. The DC97-16350V is approximately 27.5 inches long and is used on larger-capacity WA48 through WA54 series washers. Using the wrong length rod causes the tub to sit at the wrong height inside the cabinet, which can cause new imbalance issues. Always measure your existing rods or verify your model number before ordering.
Why must I replace all 4 rods instead of just the broken one?
All four suspension rods experience the same amount of wear over the same number of wash cycles. When one rod fails, the remaining three have experienced the same stress and fatigue and are likely to fail soon after. Replacing only the broken rod leaves three worn rods supporting the tub unevenly — this can cause continued vibration, accelerate wear on the new rod, and require a second repair shortly after. Replacing all four at the same time ensures even tub support, fully resolves the imbalance, and prevents a repeat repair.
Do DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, and DC97-16350E all cross to the DC97-16350U?
Yes — DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, and DC97-16350D are all cross-reference part numbers for the same Samsung suspension rod assembly used across different production runs of the same washer series. Samsung updates part number suffixes during production revisions. All of these numbers have the same 26.4–26.5" length and are interchangeable with the DC97-16350U.
What do error codes dc and UE mean on Samsung washers?
Error code dc on Samsung top-load washers indicates the machine has detected an out-of-balance condition and stopped spinning to prevent damage. Error code UE indicates an unbalanced load that the washer cannot self-correct by redistributing. Both codes can be caused by an overloaded or unevenly distributed laundry load — but if the errors occur consistently even with normal, balanced loads, worn or broken suspension rods are the most common mechanical cause. Replacing the rod kit resolves these errors in most cases.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured from spring steel with plastic end caps to match the length and spring tension of the original DC97-16350U suspension rods.

12638000000786 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Drum Roller
The 12638000000786 is a genuine Midea OEM dryer drum support roller. This roller sits underneath the drum, along its support track, and does the physical work of holding the drum's weight while letting it turn freely as the belt drives it around. A dryer typically uses more than one of these rollers working together to keep the drum properly supported and centered.
Over time, the wheel and bearing inside the roller wear down from the constant heat and rotation the dryer subjects them to, eventually developing a flat spot, seizing up, or simply wearing thin enough that the drum sits unevenly. A worn roller produces a distinctive symptom: a rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise that rises and falls with drum rotation, often getting louder as a load tumbles or as the roller continues to wear.
Quick Answer
The 12638000000786 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Drum Roller fixes Midea-built dryers with a rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise that rises and falls with drum rotation. Supports and centers the drum along its support track.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Rumbling or grinding noise that rises and falls with drum rotation
Squeaking or squealing noise from inside the dryer during operation
Thumping or knocking noise, especially with a heavier load
Noise that gets louder over time as the roller wears further
Drum that sits unevenly or wobbles slightly when turned by hand
Visible flat spot, cracking, or wear on the roller wheel
Noise that continues even with an empty drum tumbling

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. On a gas model, also close the gas shutoff valve before moving the cabinet. Wear work gloves — sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. Access is typically through the rear panel: remove the screws securing the panel, then release the drum belt from the idler pulley to relieve tension so the drum can be supported and moved slightly for access to the rollers underneath. Photograph the roller and axle positions before removing anything. Remove the retaining clip or fastener holding the worn roller's axle in place, then slide the old roller off. Install the new 12638000000786 roller onto the axle in the same orientation, and secure it with the retaining clip or fastener. While you're in there, check the other rollers by spinning each one by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or worn, replace them at the same time, since they're typically the same age and wear on a similar schedule. Re-tension the belt around the idler pulley, reassemble the rear panel, restore power, and run a short empty cycle to confirm the noise has resolved. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer makes a rumbling noise that gets louder over time. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is the classic symptom of a worn drum roller. As the wheel and bearing wear down, the noise typically starts subtle and gradually worsens, often becoming most noticeable with a full load as the extra weight puts more load on the worn wheel. If the noise rises and falls in rhythm with the drum turning, a roller is the most likely cause.
Is this the same roller as your 12638000004021 listing?
No. These are two distinct Midea part numbers, and they do not cross-reference or replace each other. If you're not sure which roller your dryer uses, check the number stamped on your existing roller or contact our support team with your model number, and we'll confirm which one is correct before you order.
Should I replace just one roller, or all of them?
It's worth checking all of them while you have access. Dryers typically use more than one roller supporting the drum, and since they're the same age and under the same stress, if one has worn out the others are often not far behind. Spin each roller by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or rough, replace them together to avoid repeating this repair again soon.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Midea to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original wheel design, bearing, and axle fitment of the drum roller originally installed in your dryer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Route The Belt Counterclockwise And Check Tension With Two Fingers Disconnect power at the outlet, or turn off the gas supply if applicable, before beginning. Wear work gloves. Slide the dryer away from the wall and remove the vent duct. Remove the screws securing the front panel, typically two at the bottom. Lift the tensioner and slide the old belt off the motor pulley, then remove it from the drum and idler pulley. Remove the drum retainer and pull out the drum for access if needed. Fit the new 312959 belt around the drum, then thread it in a counterclockwise direction around the drive motor and idler pulley. Rotate the drum until the belt settles into its running position. Check the tension by pressing down on the belt with two fingers at the center of the drum — a correctly adjusted belt should give about 1 inch of movement when pushed. If a roller wheel doesn't spin freely, lubricate it before closing everything up. Reinstall the drum retainer, front panel, and vent duct. Restore power (and gas supply if applicable), then test the dryer with the door open, pressing the door's stop-override switch, to visually confirm the drum turns smoothly before running a full cycle. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
The motor is running but the drum won't turn. Is this the belt?
Yes, this is the classic and most reliable sign of a broken or badly worn drum belt. If you can hear the motor running normally but the drum itself stays still, there's a good chance the belt has snapped or worn through and is no longer connecting the motor's rotation to the drum.
How do I know if the new belt is tensioned correctly?
Press down on the belt with two fingers at the center of the drum after installation. A correctly tensioned belt should give about 1 inch of movement when pressed this way. If it feels much looser or tighter than that, double-check the routing around the motor and idler pulley before closing up the dryer.
Should I check anything else while I have the dryer open for this repair?
Yes, it's worth checking that the drum support roller wheels spin freely by hand. One customer found their roller wheel wasn't spinning freely and lubricated it as part of the same repair, since a sticking roller can contribute to belt wear and noise even after the belt itself has been replaced.
What does "Choice" mean for this part?
Choice parts are manufactured by an independent supplier, different from the appliance's original manufacturer, and built to equivalent fit, form, and function specifications. This gives you a dependable, lower-cost alternative to a Genuine OEM part, distinct from our OE parts, which are sourced from the same supplier as the original manufacturer.
