EXP694 Dryer Repair Kit Replaces DC97-16782A, 6602-001655, DC93-00634A
The EXP694 Dryer Repair Kit is a complete drum system rebuild solution designed to restore smooth, quiet, and efficient dryer operation. This kit includes the most common wear components found inside your dryer: drum belt, idler pulley, and drum support rollers.
Over time, these parts wear down together, causing squeaking, grinding, drum slippage, or complete failure to spin. Replacing all components at once ensures proper alignment, eliminates noise, and prevents repeat breakdowns — making this the most effective long-term repair solution.
Quick Answer
The EXP694 Dryer Repair Kit fixes dryers that won’t spin, make loud squeaking or grinding noises, or stop tumbling. It replaces the belt, rollers, and idler pulley to restore smooth and quiet drum operation.
Note: Includes four rollers (each with shaft and two tri-rings), one idler pulley, and one belt. Replace all four rollers for even wear. Inspect the drum and felt seal (e.g., DC97-07618A) for wear. Clean lint from the drum and cabinet to prevent overheating.

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.

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.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Persistent squeaking or squealing noise during operation
Noise that gradually gets louder or more frequent over time
Drum that struggles to spin, spins intermittently, or won't spin at all
Burning smell coming from inside the dryer cabinet
Pulley wheel that feels stiff, gritty, or seized when checked by hand
Drive belt showing premature wear or fraying from dragging against a bound-up pulley
Noise that stops and starts depending on drum rotation or load size

Note: Whirlpool uses several different idler pulley designs across its dryer lineup, and they are NOT interchangeable. This WPW10547292 pulley is a separate part from the W10837240 pulley (used on Cabrio, Duet, and Bravos XL platforms) and the 279640 pulley (an older, differently-shaped design). Fitting the wrong pulley can result in a bracket that doesn't mount correctly or a wheel that doesn't align with your belt. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which pulley fits your dryer.

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.

XPARTCO (2 Pack) EXP570 Dryer Door Latch Kit
The XPARTCO (2 Pack) EXP570 is a two-kit set of aftermarket replacement door catch and strike kits for dryers from Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Frigidaire, GE, Hotpoint, Inglis, LG, and other comparable brands. The catch and strike work as a pair: the strike on the dryer door engages the catch on the cabinet to hold the door shut for the whole cycle. When either part wears, cracks, or gets knocked out of alignment, the door stops latching reliably. It may not stay closed, it may pop open mid-cycle and let heat escape, or the dryer may refuse to start because it doesn't register the door as closed.
This 2-pack includes 2 kits, for a total of 2 door catches and 2 strikes. Each kit has 1 door catch and 1 strike, so you can replace the full latch set in one repair rather than guessing which half is worn, and keep a second kit for another dryer or a future repair. Because this latch design was used across several appliance families, the kit carries a long cross-reference list covering Whirlpool, Frigidaire, GE, LG, and Alliance-built part numbers; see the Replaces list below.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO (2 Pack) EXP570 Dryer Door Latch Kit fixes a dryer door that won't stay closed, opens mid-cycle, or an open-door condition that keeps the dryer from starting, caused by a worn or damaged catch and strike. This 2-pack includes 2 kits (2 door catches and 2 strikes). Fits Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Frigidaire, GE, Hotpoint, Inglis, and LG dryers. Classic symptom: the door swings open on its own, or you have to hold it shut to get the dryer to run.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer door won't stay closed
Door pops open in the middle of a cycle
Dryer won't start because the open-door condition isn't clearing
Worn, cracked, or damaged catch or strike
Heat escaping around the door, leaving clothes damp
Door that no longer latches with a firm, positive click

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning. Open the door and inspect the old catch on the cabinet and the strike on the door for cracks, wear, or loose mounting. Remove the old catch and strike, keeping track of how each one is oriented and mounted. Fit the new catch and strike in the same positions and fasten them securely. Close the door and confirm it latches with a firm click, stays shut, and lines up evenly with the cabinet. If the door still won't seat properly after the swap, check the door hinges and alignment, since a misaligned door can wear out new latch parts quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer door won't stay shut — is this the part I need?
Very likely. A worn or damaged catch or strike is a common reason a dryer door won't latch or pops open mid-cycle. Inspect both parts for cracks or wear. Because the two work as a pair, replacing both at once is the surest fix.
My dryer won't start and seems to think the door is open. Could this be the cause?
It can be. If the door isn't latching fully, the dryer may not register it as closed. If the latch looks fine and the door closes firmly but the dryer still won't start, the door switch may be the problem instead.
What's included in the kit?
This 2-pack includes 2 kits, and each kit has 1 door catch and 1 strike, so you get 2 catches and 2 strikes in total. If you only need the catch, we also offer it separately as the EXP571 Dryer Door Catch.
Will this fit my Whirlpool, Frigidaire, GE, or LG dryer?
This kit is cross-referenced to part numbers from all of those brands, but it fits specific models rather than every dryer. Match the number on your old latch parts or parts diagram against the Replaces list, or contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm before you order.

AJU75152606 Genuine OEM LG Washer Water Inlet Valve Assembly
The AJU75152606 is a genuine LG OEM water inlet valve assembly for LG top-load agitator washing machines. This assembly connects to the washer's hot and cold water supply and controls the flow of water into the tub during the fill portion of the wash and rinse cycles — electrical signals from the control system open and close the appropriate water passage, filling the tub to the correct level and shutting off once it's reached.
This electric-powered valve assembly is finished in gray, designed for freestanding installation, and rated for an 8 lb capacity washer. Common causes of failure include mineral buildup or debris restricting flow through the valve, or general electrical wear in the solenoid coils. Symptoms of a failing valve include the washer not filling with water, hose leaks at the connections, the valve not opening fully, or reduced flow rate from internal buildup. Replacing this assembly requires removing the control panel and main top of the washer — a moderate difficulty repair. It directly replaces AP7005965.
Quick Answer
The AJU75152606 Genuine OEM LG Washer Water Inlet Valve Assembly fixes LG top-load agitator washers that won't fill with water, are leaking at the hose connections, or have reduced flow from internal buildup. Gray, electric-powered, 8 lb capacity rating. Replaces AP7005965. Not the same as the similarly-numbered AJU75152602 valve, which is used on different LG WT7000-series models — confirm your exact part number before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer not filling with water
Hose leaks at the valve connections
Valve not opening fully, restricting water flow

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the washer's control panel and main top to access the inlet valve — this is a moderate difficulty repair due to the disassembly involved. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the water hoses and wiring connectors from the old valve. Unscrew and remove the old inlet valve assembly. Position the new AJU75152606 in the same location and secure it with screws. Reconnect the water hoses and wiring connectors fully. Reassemble the main top and control panel. Restore the water supply and power, then run a test cycle to confirm the washer fills correctly with no leaking at the hose connections. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer isn't filling with water. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is the most direct symptom of a failed water inlet valve. Since this valve is what admits water from your household supply into the washer, a solenoid failure, mineral buildup, or debris can prevent water from entering properly, stopping the wash cycle from proceeding.
Is this the same as AJU75152602?
No, these are two separate LG valve part numbers used on different washer model series, despite the similar numbering. Always confirm the exact part number from your washer's parts diagram or the sticker on your old valve rather than assuming based on a close number match.
Is this a difficult repair?
It's a moderate difficulty repair, since it requires removing the washer's control panel and main top to access the valve. Basic hand tools are sufficient, but budget more time than you would for a simpler part swap.
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 matches the original solenoid design, flow rate, and connection type of the water inlet valve originally installed in your washer.

Genuine OEM WE04X24550 Dryer Timer
The Genuine OEM GE WE04X24550 is a mechanical dryer timer. It controls the dryer's cycle duration and its electrical components, advances the cycle through its stages, and shuts the dryer off at the end of the cycle. When the timer fails, the dryer may not start, tumble endlessly, shut off early, or have a timer knob that won't advance.
This is the original GE part, and it is a direct replacement for the earlier WE04X24549 timer. It is listed for select GE dryers, both gas and electric. Check your model number before ordering, since timers differ between dryer families.

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 console as shown in your model's service guide to reach the timer. Photograph the wiring, or note each wire's position, before disconnecting it, then move the connectors to the new timer, mount it, and refit the knob. Test every cycle selection before closing the dryer. This repair involves electrical components, so consult a qualified technician if you are not comfortable with it.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer won't shut off, or the knob won't advance. Is this the part I need?
A worn or stuck timer is a common cause of endless tumbling, early shutoff, and a knob that won't move. If the dryer won't start or heat, check the door switch, thermal fuse, and heating components too, then test the timer with a multimeter against your wiring diagram.
Is WE04X24550 the same as WE04X24549?
WE04X24550 was designed as the direct replacement for WE04X24549, and this timer covers both numbers.
Is this a hard repair?
Retailers rate it medium difficulty because it involves electrical components. Photograph the wiring before you start, and consult a technician if you are unsure.
Will this fit my dryer?

XPARTCO W10198086 Dryer Drum Belt Replaces WPW10198086
The XPARTCO W10198086 is an aftermarket replacement dryer drum belt for Whirlpool, Maytag, and Amana electric dryers. This belt wraps around the drum and the motor pulley, and it's what actually makes the drum turn — the motor drives the belt, and the belt tumbles the drum. When this belt breaks or wears out, the motor can still run, but nothing inside the dryer actually moves.
This is a 5-rib belt measuring approximately 92-1/2"L x 5/16"W x 1/8"H, with grooves on one side and a flat surface on the other. A broken or badly worn belt produces an unmistakable symptom: the dryer runs — you'll hear the motor and often the blower — but the drum doesn't turn at all, or turns only briefly before stopping. A simple way to confirm this diagnosis before opening the dryer is to try turning the drum by hand; if it spins freely with no resistance, the belt is almost certainly broken. Overloading the dryer with oversized loads is a common cause of belt failure over time. It directly replaces WPW10198086, W11575709, W11667279, LB8086, 1481904, AP6016842, AH2348726, EA2348726, PS2348726, EAP11750135, PS11750135, AWP49253, and PD00007598.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10198086 Dryer Drum Belt fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, and Amana electric dryers where the motor runs but the drum doesn't turn, or turns only briefly. 5-rib belt, approximately 92-1/2"L x 5/16"W x 1/8"H. Replaces WPW10198086, W11575709, W11667279, LB8086, 1481904, AP6016842, AH2348726, EA2348726, PS2348726, EAP11750135, PS11750135, AWP49253, PD00007598. Try turning the drum by hand first — if it spins freely with no resistance, the belt has broken.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer runs — motor and blower audible — but the drum doesn't turn
Drum turns briefly then stops
Drum spins freely by hand with no resistance (indicating a broken belt)
Loud squeaking noise during operation from a worn but not yet broken belt
Burning rubber smell from a slipping or overheating belt
Dryer that stopped tumbling suddenly during a cycle

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Check The Idler Pulley While You're In There Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Lift the lint screen cover and remove the two screws underneath it — if your model has a lint screen with a built-in cover, simply pull it out and remove the screws. Run a putty knife around the top edge of the dryer to find the release clips, then press them in to release and swing the top open. Remove the front panel to access the drum and belt area; on many models, all the work for this repair is performed from the front rather than the rear. Route the new W10198086 belt around the drum with the grooved side against the drum, then loop it around the motor pulley and the idler pulley, following the routing diagram on the inside of the cabinet or your old belt's path if it's still intact when you remove it. If the belt broke rather than just wearing out, check that the idler pulley is still properly seated — a belt snapping can sometimes cause the pulley to pop out of position, and reseating it is a quick fix while you already have the panel open. Reinstall the front panel, close the top and secure the release clips, and reinstall the lint screen area and its screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the drum turns smoothly with no slipping or noise. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 5/16" nut driver, putty knife, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer runs but the drum won't turn. How do I confirm it's the belt before ordering?
Try turning the drum by hand with the dryer unplugged. If it spins freely with little to no resistance, that's a strong sign the belt has broken, since an intact belt normally provides some resistance from the motor and idler pulley connected to it. If the drum feels stuck or hard to turn instead, the problem may be elsewhere, such as a seized idler pulley or motor issue.
What caused my belt to break in the first place?
Belts wear out from age and normal use, but overloading the dryer with oversized or overly heavy loads is a common accelerating factor, since it puts extra strain on the belt with every rotation. Avoiding overloaded loads going forward can help the new belt last as long as it should.
While replacing the belt, I noticed the idler pulley looks out of place. Is that related?
Yes, this can happen when a belt breaks suddenly — the pulley can pop out of its normal seated position as tension is lost. Since you'll already have the panel open for the belt replacement, take a moment to check that the idler pulley is properly seated before closing everything back up, as this is a common and easy thing to overlook.
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, rib count, and routing configuration of the original WPW10198086 drum belt used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, and Amana electric dryers.

WP8544771 Dryer Genuine OEM Heating Element
The WP8544771 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM heating element assembly for Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, Crosley, and Inglis electric dryers. This assembly includes the housing with the heating element coil and insulators attached, and is what generates the heat used to dry your clothes throughout the cycle.
Rated 5400 watts, 240 volts. Over time, the coil can burn through at a weak point, causing an open circuit and a complete loss of heat. According to Whirlpool's own guidance, if a dryer stops heating, the heating element may have failed, but it's not actually the most common cause — a blown thermal fuse is more frequently the culprit, so it's worth checking that first. Symptoms of a failed heating element include the dryer running a full cycle with no heat, insufficient heat, or drying times that have gradually gotten longer. It directly replaces 8544771, W10836011, WP8544771VP, 1180054, AP6013115, AWP48654, DE4771, EAP11746337, PAT NO 7154072, PD00002399, PS11746337. As a genuine OEM part, the WP8544771 is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The WP8544771 Dryer Genuine OEM Heating Element fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, Crosley, and Inglis electric dryers with no heat, insufficient heat, or drying times that have gotten longer. 5400W, 240V.

Check the thermal fuse first — per Whirlpool's own guidance, a blown thermal fuse is a more common cause of no-heat than a failed heating element.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer runs a full cycle but produces no heat at all
Dryer produces some heat, but not enough to dry clothes properly
Drying times that have gradually gotten longer than they used to
Clothes coming out cold or barely warm at the end of a cycle
Visible break or burned-through section in the heating coil

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — A 1/4" Dowel Or Rod Helps Release The Rear Clip Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. On many models, the heating element assembly can be removed from the front after removing the bottom "toe" panel. There's also a clip at the back of the assembly where it connects to the warm air duct leading into the dryer drum — this clip can be released from the front using a piece of 1/4" dowel or rod, which saves you from having to remove the back cover separately. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the wire terminals from the old element, release the rear clip, and pull the assembly free. Since the thermal fuse and high-limit thermostat typically attach directly to this heating element assembly, this is a good opportunity to inspect or replace them at the same time, even if they're still technically working, since they share the same duty cycle and stress. Install the new 8544771 in the same position, reconnect the wire terminals, and re-engage the rear clip. Reassemble the toe panel or back cover. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the dryer is heating normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, 1/4" dowel or rod, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer isn't heating. Should I replace the heating element first?
Not necessarily as your first step. Per Whirlpool's own guidance, while a failed heating element can cause a no-heat symptom, it's not actually the most common cause — a blown thermal fuse is more frequently the reason a dryer stops heating. It's worth checking the thermal fuse first, since it's a simpler and less expensive part to test and replace.
Is there an easier way to release the rear clip without removing the back cover?
Yes. One customer found that the clip at the back of the heating element assembly, where it connects to the warm air duct, can be released from the front of the dryer using a piece of 1/4" dowel or rod, avoiding the need to remove the back cover separately. They only discovered this after already taking the back cover off, so it's worth trying this approach first.
Should I replace the thermal fuse and thermostat while I'm in there?
It's worth considering. Since the thermal cut-off fuse and high-limit thermostat typically attach directly to the heating element assembly, one customer chose to replace both at the same time as the element, even though they were still technically working, simply because they were already accessible during the same repair. Our 280148 kit bundles the matching 8557403 thermostat and 8318314 fuse for this exact purpose.
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 coil design, wattage, and housing configuration of the heating element assembly originally installed in your dryer.

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.

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.
