WPW10547292 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Idler Pulley
The WPW10547292 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM idler pulley assembly for Whirlpool, Maytag, and Kenmore dryers. This pulley sits to the left of the motor, just below the drum belt, and its job is to ride against the belt and keep constant tension on it as the motor turns — without that tension, the belt would sag, slip on the motor pulley, and fail to reliably turn the drum. The pulley wheel itself spins freely on a bearing mounted to a bracket, so as the belt moves, the pulley spins along with it under light load.
Over time, the bearing inside the pulley wheel wears out, causing it to spin roughly, seize partially, or bind up entirely instead of turning freely. When that happens, the belt drags against a pulley that should be spinning smoothly with it, generating friction, heat, and noise. A worn idler pulley produces a very recognizable symptom: a persistent squeaking or squealing sound during operation that often gets more noticeable over time, and in more advanced cases, a drum that struggles to spin or doesn't spin at all, or a burning smell as the seized pulley drags against the belt. It directly replaces W10547292, WPW10547292VP, AP6022817, 8547160, PS11756154, and LP16246.
Quick Answer
The WPW10547292 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Idler Pulley fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, and Kenmore dryers with a persistent squeaking or squealing noise during operation, a drum that struggles to spin, or a burning smell from a seized pulley dragging against the belt. Mounts to the left of the motor, below the belt. Replaces W10547292, WPW10547292VP, AP6022817, 8547160, PS11756154, LP16246. Consider replacing the drum belt (8544742/WP8544742) at the same time — a seized idler pulley is a common cause of premature belt wear, and you'll already have the cabinet open.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — On Gas Models, Shut Off The Gas Supply Too Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. On a gas dryer, also close the gas shutoff valve before moving the cabinet. Wear work gloves. Remove the lint filter, then remove the screws along the top edge of the front panel and take the panel off. With the front open, locate the belt tensioner pulley — it sits to the left of the motor, just below the belt. Use a socket wrench with an extension to loosen the pulley's mounting bolt, then remove the old pulley assembly, releasing the belt from it as you go. Slide the new WPW10547292 assembly onto the mounting post, making sure the grooves line up correctly so the belt seats snugly against the wheel, then re-tighten the mounting bolt securely. Before closing everything up, spin the new pulley by hand to confirm it turns freely with no grinding or resistance, and inspect the belt for wear, glazing, or fraying — replace it as well if it shows any of these signs, since a worn belt will quickly wear out even a brand-new pulley. Reinstall the front panel and its screws, restore power, and run a short empty cycle listening for the squeak to confirm it's resolved. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, 3/8" socket wrench with extension, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer squeaks constantly. Is this definitely the idler pulley?
It's one of the most common causes of a persistent squeak, especially if the noise is steady and present throughout the cycle rather than only at certain moments. The pulley's internal bearing wears out over years of use, and a worn bearing produces exactly this kind of ongoing squeal as it spins roughly instead of smoothly. If you can access the pulley and spin it by hand, feeling any grinding or stiffness confirms the diagnosis.
Is this a hard repair, or can I do it myself?
It's a moderate repair — you'll need to remove the front panel and access the area behind the motor, which some customers describe as needing to "pull the entire dryer apart" to reach the pulley. It's very doable with basic hand tools and some patience, but budget more time than a simple part swap, and expect to use a socket wrench with an extension to reach the mounting bolt in that tighter space.
Should I replace the belt while I'm already in there?
It's worth strongly considering. A seized or dragging pulley puts extra wear on the belt, so if your pulley failed from being seized rather than just noisy, the belt may already be showing damage. Since you'll already have the cabinet open and the belt exposed, inspecting it — and replacing it if it shows glazing, cracking, or fraying — saves you from repeating this same teardown again soon after.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original bearing design, bracket shape, and mounting configuration of the idler pulley assembly originally installed in your Whirlpool, Maytag, or Kenmore dryer.

AGM30045804 Genuine OEM LG Dryer Thermistor and Thermostat Kit
The AGM30045804 is a genuine LG OEM high-limit thermostat and thermistor kit for LG dryers. These two components work together in the same temperature-regulation circuit: the thermistor is a temperature sensor, mounted in the blower housing with its wire harness included, that continuously reports drum temperature to the control board so it can fine-tune heat output throughout the cycle. The high-limit thermostat is a safety switch that automatically shuts off the heating element if temperatures climb past a safe threshold, then resets itself once the dryer cools, without needing to be replaced the way a thermal fuse does.
Because these two parts share the same circuit and tend to wear or fail around a similar timeline, LG sells and services them together as one kit rather than as separate individual parts. Symptoms of failure in this circuit include the dryer overheating (which can scorch clothing or, left unaddressed, pose a fire risk), the dryer running with little or no heat, drying times that have become inconsistent, an error code related to temperature control on the display, or clothes coming out damp after a full cycle. It directly replaces 6931EL3003C, 6323EL2001B, 6931EL3003F, 6931EL3004B, AP7206815, EAP16732335, and PS16732335.
Quick Answer
The AGM30045804 Genuine OEM LG Dryer Thermistor and Thermostat Kit fixes LG (and select Kenmore, GE-branded LG-built) dryers with overheating, little or no heat, inconsistent drying times, a temperature-related error code, or clothes coming out damp after a full cycle. High-limit thermostat + thermistor with wire harness. Replaces 6931EL3003C, 6323EL2001B, 6931EL3003F, 6931EL3004B, AP7206815, EAP16732335, PS16732335. If you've already replaced the high-limit thermostat alone and the problem returns, this combined kit — which also addresses the thermistor — is the next step.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Let It Cool Fully First Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning, and allow the dryer to cool completely if it was recently run. Wear work gloves. Access on many LG models follows this general sequence: remove the lint screen, then remove the two front panel screws underneath it, the two screws on the face of the panel, and the two screws holding the blower cover in place. Disconnect the door switch connector and remove the front panel. With the front open, release the drive belt from the tensioner and remove the drum to access the blower housing where the thermistor is located. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since the thermistor and high-limit thermostat can be easy to confuse with other similar-looking components nearby. Disconnect and remove the old thermistor and high-limit thermostat, noting their exact mounting positions. Install the new components from this kit in the same positions, reconnecting wiring exactly as photographed. Reinstall the drum, re-tension the belt over the tensioner, and reassemble the front panel, blower cover, and lint screen area in reverse order. Restore power and run a full test cycle to confirm normal, consistent heating with no premature shutoffs. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
I already replaced the high-limit thermostat, but it keeps tripping. Why would I need this kit instead?
This is a well-documented pattern. If the thermistor — the sensor that reports temperature to the control board — is misreading heat, the control can keep driving the heating element past the point where the high-limit thermostat has to trip repeatedly to protect the dryer, even with a brand-new thermostat installed. Replacing the thermistor alongside the thermostat addresses the root cause rather than just the symptom, which is exactly why LG packages them together as one kit.
What's the difference between the thermistor and the high-limit thermostat?
The thermistor is a sensor, not a switch — it's a variable resistor whose resistance changes with temperature, and the control board reads that value continuously to regulate heat output throughout the cycle. The high-limit thermostat is a safety switch that does one job: it shuts off the heating element automatically if temperature exceeds a safe limit, then resets itself once things cool down. A failing thermistor causes inconsistent or inaccurate heat regulation; a failing high-limit thermostat causes the dryer to shut off unexpectedly or fail to protect against overheating.
My parts diagram shows more thermostat-like parts than what's in this kit. Did I order the wrong thing?
Not necessarily — some LG dryer models have additional related components, such as a separate blower thermostat, that are not part of this specific kit. This kit covers the high-limit thermostat and thermistor. If your repair calls for additional related parts, or if you're not sure exactly which components your model needs, contact our support team with your model number and we'll help you confirm the complete parts list before you order.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same resistance values, switch threshold, and wire harness configuration as the high-limit thermostat and thermistor originally installed in your dryer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Safety First — Unplug Dryer and Shut Off Gas Before Starting Unplug the dryer from the power source (and shut off the gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair. The thermal fuse is located on the exhaust duct or blower wheel housing — access it by removing the back or front panel depending on your dryer model. Disconnect the two wire terminals from the old fuse, remove the fuse from its bracket, install the new fuse in the same position, reconnect the terminals, and reassemble the panel. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4-inch nut driver, and a multimeter to confirm the new fuse has continuity. ⚠️ Important: Before completing the repair, always check and clear the exhaust vent of any lint buildup — a blocked vent is the most common cause of thermal fuse failure and will blow the new fuse if not corrected.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the 3392519 fit my dryer?
This thermal fuse is compatible with select gas and electric dryers from Whirlpool, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Maytag, Roper, Estate, Inglis, Crosley, Amana, Admiral, and Magic Chef. Use the model search above to verify your model, or contact our support team before ordering.
What does a dryer thermal fuse do?
The thermal fuse is a one-time-use safety device that monitors the temperature inside the dryer. When the dryer overheats — typically due to a clogged exhaust vent — the fuse permanently opens the circuit, cutting power to the heating system to prevent a fire. Once blown, it cannot be reset and must be replaced.
How do I know if my thermal fuse is blown?
Test the fuse with a multimeter set to continuity mode. Touch the probes to each of the two terminals. A working fuse will show continuity (beep or near-zero ohms). A blown fuse will show no continuity (open circuit). If there is no continuity, the fuse is blown and must be replaced.
Why did my thermal fuse blow?
The most common cause is restricted airflow due to a clogged or kinked exhaust vent, a plugged lint trap, or a damaged blower wheel. Always check and clear the exhaust vent before or after replacing the fuse — failing to do so will cause the new fuse to blow again.
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 designed to deliver reliable overheat protection at a more affordable price point.

XPARTCO 3387747 Dryer Heating Element Replaces WP3387747
The XPARTCO 3387747 is an aftermarket replacement heating element assembly for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper electric dryers. This element is the source of virtually all the heat in the dryer: current flows through a nickel-chromium coil, which glows and radiates heat as the blower pushes air across it and into the drum. Everything downstream — the drum temperature, the drying time, the final dampness of your clothes — depends on this coil working correctly.
Rated 5400W at 240V, with two 5/16" terminals for a direct connection. The nickel-chromium coil is rated at roughly 85% nickel-chromium content for effective, heat-and-abrasion-resistant heating, and it's mounted in high-temperature ceramic insulators that hold it firmly in the frame so it won't loosen or shift under the vibration of a running dryer. Over years of use, the coil itself typically fails with a visible break somewhere along its length — a section simply burns through and the circuit opens, cutting off heat entirely. It directly replaces WP3387747, WP3387747VP, W11045584, W11344457, 80003, 525502, AP6008281, AP2947033, PS344597, PS11741416, EAP11741416, FIX11741416, AWP47520, and PD00002365.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 3387747 Dryer Heating Element fixes Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper electric dryers with no heat, insufficient heat, or drying times that have gotten noticeably longer. 5400W, 240V, two 5/16" terminals. Replaces WP3387747, WP3387747VP, W11045584, W11344457, 80003, 525502, AP6008281, AP2947033, PS344597, PS11741416, EAP11741416, FIX11741416, AWP47520, PD00002365. If the dryer has no heat at all, check the thermal fuse first — it's a cheaper, faster fix, and a blown fuse produces the same "no heat" symptom as a failed element.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Test Continuity Before Assuming It's The Element Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel or the front, depending on your model, to reach the heater duct/blower housing area where the element is mounted. Before removing anything, test the old element with a multimeter set to continuity — a healthy element reads continuous end to end, while a failed one (with a visible break in the coil) reads open. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the two wire terminals from the old element, remove the mounting screws or clips holding it in the duct housing, and pull it free. Install the new 3387747 assembly in the same position, reconnect the two wire terminals, and secure the mounting hardware. While the dryer is open, this is a good time to fully clean the exhaust vent ducting from the lint trap to the outside vent hood — restricted airflow is a major cause of heating element failure, and a fresh element installed into a clogged system will likely fail again prematurely. Reassemble the panel, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm the dryer is heating normally. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, 5/16" wrench, Phillips screwdriver, multimeter, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer has no heat at all. Should I replace the element first, or check something else?
Check the thermal fuse first. A blown thermal fuse produces the exact same "no heat at all" symptom as a failed heating element, and it's a much cheaper, faster part to test and replace. Whirlpool's own service guidance recommends checking the thermal fuse before replacing the element. If the fuse tests good and the dryer still has no heat, the element itself is the next thing to test and likely replace.
How can I tell if the element has actually failed?
The most reliable way is a continuity test with a multimeter — set it to continuity mode, disconnect the element's wires, and touch a probe to each terminal. A healthy element shows continuity (a complete circuit); a failed one shows open (no continuity), which usually corresponds to a visible break or burned-through section somewhere in the coil if you inspect it closely.
Why does the listing recommend cleaning the vent duct during this repair?
Restricted airflow from a lint-clogged exhaust duct is one of the most common root causes of heating element failure — when air can't move through the system properly, heat builds up around the element well beyond its designed operating range, accelerating wear and often leading directly to a burned-through coil. Since you'll already have the dryer open for this repair, cleaning the full duct run from the lint trap to the outside vent hood is a good use of the same trip and helps the new element last.
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 5400W/240V electrical rating, nickel-chromium coil composition, ceramic insulator mounting, and terminal configuration of the original WP3387747 heating element used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper dryers.
