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.

XPARTCO 691366 Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly Replaces WP691366 The XPARTCO 691366 is an aftermarket replacement dryer idler pulley assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-family dryers — particularly models with the lint filter on top — including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Roper, Crosley, Estate, Inglis, Admiral, Magic Chef, and Norge. The idler pulley assembly is a spring-tensioned arm and wheel that presses against the drum drive belt to maintain correct belt tension as it wraps around the drum and motor pulley. Without proper tension, the belt slips off the motor pulley, causing the drum to stop spinning. A worn idler pulley bearing also causes squealing, squeaking, or thumping noises during operation. This is a complete idler arm and pulley assembly — it includes both the spring arm and the wheel, and mounts directly to the existing bracket in the dryer. Overall dimensions are 6"L x 1-5/8"W x 3-7/8"H with a 1-7/8" diameter pulley wheel. It replaces older Teflon friction-style idler pulleys and provides a smoother, longer-lasting ball-bearing wheel.

Remove the lint screen and unscrew the screws inside the lint screen housing. Use a putty knife to release the top panel spring clips and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to fully access the drum drive components. Release belt tension by pushing the idler pulley arm toward the motor and sliding the belt off. Note how the belt is routed before removing — take a photo. Unclip or unscrew the old idler pulley assembly from its mounting bracket. Install the new 691366 idler pulley in the same position. Re-route the belt around the drum (ribbed side in), under the idler pulley, and around the motor pulley, then release the idler arm to create tension. Reassemble the front and top panels, restore power, and run a test cycle. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect and replace the drum belt (341241) and drum support rollers (349241T) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" or 5/16" nut driver, putty knife. Frequently Asked Questions What does the idler pulley do? The idler pulley is a spring-loaded arm and wheel assembly that presses against the drive belt between the drum and the motor pulley, keeping the belt under constant tension. This tension is what allows the belt to grip both the drum and the motor pulley without slipping as the motor spins. Without proper tension — or with a pulley bearing that has failed — the belt slips, the drum stops spinning, and the dryer produces heat but does not tumble clothes. A worn bearing also creates the high-pitched squealing sound that is the most common sign of idler pulley failure. What is the difference between 691366 and WP691366? These are the same idler pulley assembly. WP691366 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original 691366. The W10612905 is also a cross-reference for the same assembly. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all three numbers. What is the difference between 691366 and W10837240? Both are Whirlpool dryer idler pulley assemblies, but for different dryer generations. The 691366 (WP691366) is used on older Whirlpool-family dryers with the lint filter on top of the dryer. The W10837240 is a larger, redesigned idler arm and bracket assembly used on newer Whirlpool-family dryers with the lint screen inside the door. They are not interchangeable. Always verify your model number to confirm which idler pulley is correct for your dryer. Should I also replace the belt and drum rollers at the same time? Yes — since the dryer must be disassembled to replace the idler pulley, this is the ideal time to also inspect and replace the drum belt (341241) and rear drum support rollers (349241T). All three parts are part of the same drum drive system and wear at similar rates. The 4392065 maintenance kit includes all three together and is the recommended approach for a complete drum drive repair — one teardown covers everything. 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 with a ball-bearing pulley wheel to match the dimensions and performance of the original WP691366 idler pulley assembly.

XPARTCO 4561EL3002A Dryer Idler Pulley Assembly The XPARTCO 4561EL3002A is an aftermarket replacement dryer idler pulley assembly compatible with select LG and Kenmore electric and gas dryers. The idler pulley assembly is a spring-tensioned arm, pulley wheel, and spring kit that presses against the drive belt to keep it under constant tension as it wraps around the drum and motor pulley. Without correct belt tension, the belt slips, the drum stops spinning, and the dryer tumbles clothes poorly or not at all. A worn idler pulley bearing is also one of the most common causes of squealing, squeaking, and thumping noises in LG dryers. This complete assembly includes the idler arm, pulley wheel, and idler spring. Overall dimensions are 5-3/4"L x 2-1/4"W x 3-7/8"H with a 2-1/4" diameter pulley wheel. Constructed from plastic and metal in white, black, and gray. It directly replaces 4561EL3002B, DE3002A, 4980EL3004, 1267530, AP4438243, AH3523033, EA3523033, EAP3523033, PD00001729, and PS3523033.

Wear work gloves — there are sharp sheet metal edges inside the LG dryer cabinet. Access the idler pulley by removing the back panel of the dryer (on most LG models) or the front panel and top panel. Take a photo of the belt routing around the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley before removing anything — this is essential for correct reassembly. Release belt tension by pressing the idler arm toward the motor and sliding the belt free. Remove the idler spring from its anchor point, then unclip or unscrew the idler arm from its mounting bracket. Install the new 4561EL3002A idler assembly in the same position — hook the spring onto its anchor point first, then mount the arm. Re-route the belt around the drum (ribbed side in), under the idler pulley, and around the motor pulley, then allow the idler arm to tension the belt. Reassemble panels, restore power, and run a test cycle. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect and replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum rollers (4581EL2002A) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver (T20 on some models), needle-nose pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions What does the dryer idler pulley do? The idler pulley is a spring-loaded arm and wheel assembly that presses against the drive belt between the drum and the motor pulley, keeping the belt under constant tension. This tension is what allows the belt to grip both the drum surface and the motor pulley so the motor's rotation is transmitted to spin the drum. Without proper tension — or with a pulley bearing that has seized or worn out — the belt slips, the drum stops spinning, and the dryer produces heat without tumbling clothes. A worn bearing also creates the high-pitched squealing noise that is the most recognizable symptom of idler pulley failure on LG dryers. What is the difference between 4561EL3002A and 4561EL3002B? These are the same LG dryer idler pulley assembly across two production revisions. The 4561EL3002B was an earlier version and the 4561EL3002A is the current part number. Both are the same functional assembly — if your dryer's parts diagram shows 4561EL3002B, the 4561EL3002A is the correct current replacement and is covered by this listing. Should I also replace the drum belt and rollers at the same time? Yes — since the dryer must be disassembled to replace the idler pulley, this is the ideal time to also inspect and replace the drum belt (4400EL2001A) and drum support rollers (4581EL2002A). All three parts form the drum drive system and wear at similar rates. A worn roller or belt is often what caused the idler pulley to wear prematurely. Replacing all three in one repair eliminates the most common drum drive failure points and prevents a repeat teardown in the near future. Can I just replace the pulley wheel without the arm and spring? Yes — the pulley wheel alone (without the arm and spring) is sold separately as part number APN4560EL3001A. If only the wheel bearing has failed and the arm and spring are in good condition, you can order just the wheel. However, if the arm is cracked, the spring has lost tension, or both the wheel and arm have significant wear, ordering the complete 4561EL3002A assembly is more cost-effective and ensures the entire idler system is renewed in a single repair. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured from plastic and metal to match the dimensions and performance of the original 4561EL3002A idler pulley assembly.
