ADQ56656401 Genuine OEM LG Dryer Lint Screen
The ADQ56656401 is a genuine LG OEM lint filter screen for LG and select Kenmore Elite front-load dryers. This is the removable screen that sits in the lint trap opening at the top of the dryer, catching lint and fabric fibers out of the exhaust airflow before they can reach the vent duct. Keeping this screen intact and free of buildup is one of the most important things you can do for your dryer's performance — a torn, missing, or heavily clogged screen doesn't just slow drying, it lets more lint travel downstream into the ducting, which is a well-documented fire risk factor for dryers generally.
Built with an ABS plastic frame and a stainless steel mesh screen, this filter measures approximately 11.9" x 10.9". Over time the mesh can tear, the frame can crack, or the screen can simply wear out and stop trapping lint as effectively as it should. A worn or damaged lint screen typically shows up as drying times that have crept longer than they used to, visible lint on clean clothes, or a screen that's visibly torn, bent, or missing sections of mesh. It directly replaces AP4457244, 1462822, AH3531962, EA3531962, and PS3531962.

Installation Notes
This is a simple, tool-free repair. With the dryer unplugged or off, locate the lint trap opening at the top of the dryer and pull the old lint screen straight up and out. Line up the new ADQ56656401 screen with the same opening and slide it back down into place until it seats fully and sits flush. There's no need to disconnect power for this repair, but it's good practice to do so if you're also cleaning out the trap housing itself. While the screen is out, take a moment to wipe down the inside of the lint trap housing to clear any accumulated lint before reinserting the new screen. Tools needed: none.
Frequently Asked Questions
My drying times have gotten longer. Is a worn lint screen really the cause?
It's one of the most common and easiest-to-fix causes. A torn or heavily worn screen lets lint pass through into the ducting instead of being caught, which restricts airflow further downstream and makes the dryer work harder to move air. Combined with regularly cleaning the screen after every load, a fresh screen in good condition helps restore normal drying times.
Is it actually important to replace a torn lint screen, or is it just cosmetic?
It's worth replacing rather than continuing to use a damaged screen. A torn or heavily worn lint filter lets more lint travel past it into the dryer's internal ducting and exhaust path, and lint buildup in that ducting is a well-documented dryer fire risk factor. Combined with never running the dryer without a lint filter in place at all, keeping the screen in good condition is a simple, inexpensive way to reduce that risk.
Do I need any tools to replace this?
No. The lint screen simply lifts straight out of its slot and the new one slides straight back in — no tools, no disassembly required.
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 frame dimensions, mesh material, and fit of the lint screen originally installed in your LG or Kenmore Elite dryer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. 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 access the drum. Release the drive belt from the idler pulley, lift the drum forward, and set it aside. The rear drum support rollers are mounted on shafts on the rear bulkhead — each roller is secured with a tri-ring clip and a retaining washer. Use needle-nose pliers to remove the old tri-ring clips, then slide the old rollers off the shafts. Install the new rollers, new retaining washers, and new tri-ring clips on the shafts. Reinstall the drum, re-route the belt around the motor and idler pulley, and reassemble the front and top panels. Restore power and run a test cycle to verify quiet, smooth drum operation. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect and replace the drum belt (341241) and idler pulley (691366 or 279640) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" or 5/16" nut driver, putty knife, needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the drum support rollers do?
The rear drum support rollers are cylindrical wheels mounted on fixed shafts at the back of the dryer cabinet. As the drum rotates, its rear outer rim rests on these rollers, which carry the drum's weight and allow it to spin smoothly and quietly. When the rubber wheels wear down or the bearing hubs corrode, the drum no longer rides smoothly on the rollers — causing thumping, rumbling, or squealing noises that get progressively worse. In severe cases, worn rollers allow the drum to sag and drag against the cabinet rear panel.
Why must I replace both rollers at the same time?
Both rear drum support rollers carry the same load and experience the same wear through every drying cycle. When one roller fails, the other has been under the same stress for the same number of cycles and is almost certainly near the end of its useful life. Replacing only the failed roller leaves one worn roller supporting the drum unevenly, which puts extra stress on the new roller and causes it to wear out much faster. Replace both rollers at the same time to ensure even drum support and get the full service life from the new parts.
Should I also replace the belt and idler pulley at the same time?
Yes — this is the ideal time. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access the rear drum rollers, replacing the drum belt (341241) and idler pulley (691366 or 279640) at the same time is strongly recommended. All three parts wear at similar rates, and a worn belt or idler pulley is often what caused the rollers to wear prematurely. Doing all three in one repair eliminates the most common drum drive failure points and saves you from repeating the teardown in the near future. The 4392065 maintenance kit includes all three parts together.
What causes dryer drum rollers to wear out?
Drum rollers wear naturally over time from the continuous load of supporting the rotating drum. The most common accelerating factors are operating the dryer with a worn or broken belt (which allows the drum to sag and puts extra weight on the rollers), running very large or heavy loads frequently, and allowing lint to accumulate around the roller shafts, which causes the bearings to run dry and wear faster. Regular dryer maintenance — including cleaning lint from around the drum and periodically checking the belt — helps extend roller life.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
It is a genuine Whirlpool OEM part.

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.

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

XPARTCO 33002535 Dryer Drum Belt Replaces WP33002535
The XPARTCO 33002535 is an aftermarket replacement dryer drum belt compatible with a wide range of Maytag, Amana, Crosley, and Kenmore dryers. The drum belt is a long, ribbed rubber belt that wraps around the outside of the dryer drum and connects to the motor pulley and idler pulley, transferring the motor's rotation to spin the drum during every drying cycle. When the belt breaks or wears out, the motor continues to run but the drum stops spinning — clothes tumble only under gravity or not at all, and the dryer produces heat with no airflow through the load.
This belt measures 91-5/8" in length and 5/16" in width, with 5 ribs and 4 grooves — the correct profile to grip the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley on compatible Maytag-platform dryers. Made from high-strength rubber designed to resist stretching, cracking, and heat degradation over years of use. It directly replaces WP33002535, 33001777, 63700300, 791135, WP33002535VP, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 33002535 Dryer Drum Belt fixes Maytag-platform dryers where the drum is not spinning, the motor runs but the drum is still, or the belt is visibly broken or worn. 91-5/8" long x 5/16" wide, 5 ribs, 4 grooves. Compatible with Maytag, Amana, Crosley, and Kenmore dryers. Replaces WP33002535, 33001777, 63700300, 791135, and more. Installs in 30–45 minutes.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer drum not spinning — motor runs but drum is completely still
Drum spinning only when manually pushed — belt is slipping or broken
Dryer running but not drying — drum not tumbling clothes through the airflow
Squealing or thumping noise just before the belt broke and the drum stopped
Belt visibly broken, frayed, or in pieces inside the dryer cabinet
Dryer tumbling unevenly or intermittently due to a stretched or slipping belt

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Remove the top panel by unscrewing the screws inside the lint screen housing and releasing the front clips with a putty knife. Remove the front panel to access the drum. Release tension from the old belt at the idler pulley, then slide the belt off the drum, idler pulley, and motor pulley. Note how the belt is routed before removing it — take a photo if needed. Loop the new 33002535 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing inward (toward the drum). Route the belt under the idler pulley and around the motor pulley, then pull the idler pulley toward you to create tension. Reassemble the front and top panels, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm the drum spins. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect the drum support rollers (12001541) and idler pulley (WP6-3700340) for wear and replace if needed. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, putty knife.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 33002535 and WP33002535?
These are the same dryer drum belt. WP33002535 is the updated Whirlpool/Maytag OEM part number that superseded the original 33002535. The 33001777 is also a cross-reference for this same belt. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all three numbers.
How do I know if my dryer belt has broken?
The clearest sign of a broken belt is a motor that runs — you can hear it humming — but the drum does not spin when you start the dryer. On most Maytag-platform dryers, you can open the dryer door and try to spin the drum by hand — if it spins very freely with almost no resistance, the belt has likely broken. You can also open the top or front panel to visually inspect the belt; a broken belt will be lying loose inside the cabinet or wrapped around components rather than stretched around the drum.
Should I replace the drum rollers and idler pulley at the same time?
Yes — since the dryer is already disassembled, this is the ideal time to inspect and replace the drum support rollers (12001541) and idler pulley (WP6-3700340). These components wear at similar rates to the belt, and a worn roller or pulley bearing is often what caused the belt to wear and break prematurely. Replacing all three together eliminates the most common sources of drum noise and prevents a second teardown in the near future.
Which side of the belt faces the drum?
The ribbed side of the 33002535 belt faces inward — toward the drum surface. The smooth side faces outward, away from the drum. When installing, wrap the belt around the drum with the ribs against the drum, then route the smooth side under the idler pulley and around the motor pulley. If the belt is installed inside-out, it will slip and the drum will not spin correctly.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Maytag or Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from high-strength rubber to match the length, width, and rib profile of the original WP33002535 drum belt.

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.

XPARTCO 349241T Dryer Drum Roller Set (2-Pack)
The XPARTCO 349241T is an aftermarket replacement dryer rear drum support roller set compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-family 29-inch dryers including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Roper, Crosley, Estate, Inglis, Admiral, and Magic Chef. The drum support rollers are cylindrical rubber-and-metal wheels mounted on shafts at the rear of the dryer cabinet that cradle and support the outer edge of the drum as it rotates. Without the rollers, the drum would drag directly on the cabinet, causing rapid wear and generating the loud thumping or squealing noise that indicates failing rollers.
This set includes 2 drum rollers, 4 tri-ring retaining clips, and 2 retaining washers — everything needed for a complete rear roller replacement. Each roller measures 3-1/4"L x 1"W x 3-1/4"H and is constructed from rubber over a metal bearing hub with a plastic axle support. Both rollers must always be replaced at the same time. The set directly replaces 349241, 349241TVP, 8170, 8205, 337089, 340352, 661562, 3389901, 3397588, 3397590, AP3098345, PS347627, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Often replaced together with the drum belt (341241) and idler pulley (691366 or 279640) for a complete drum drive repair. Installs in 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 349241T Dryer Drum Roller Set fixes Whirlpool-family 29" dryers that are squealing, thumping, rumbling, or where the drum is not turning smoothly.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. 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 access the drum. Release the drive belt from the idler pulley, lift the drum forward, and set it aside. The rear drum support rollers are mounted on shafts on the rear bulkhead — each roller is secured with a tri-ring clip and a retaining washer. Use needle-nose pliers to remove the old tri-ring clips, then slide the old rollers off the shafts. Install the new rollers, new retaining washers, and new tri-ring clips on the shafts. Reinstall the drum, re-route the belt around the motor and idler pulley, and reassemble the front and top panels. Restore power and run a test cycle to verify quiet, smooth drum operation. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect and replace the drum belt (341241) and idler pulley (691366 or 279640) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" or 5/16" nut driver, putty knife, needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the drum support rollers do?
The rear drum support rollers are cylindrical wheels mounted on fixed shafts at the back of the dryer cabinet. As the drum rotates, its rear outer rim rests on these rollers, which carry the drum's weight and allow it to spin smoothly and quietly. When the rubber wheels wear down or the bearing hubs corrode, the drum no longer rides smoothly on the rollers — causing thumping, rumbling, or squealing noises that get progressively worse. In severe cases, worn rollers allow the drum to sag and drag against the cabinet rear panel.
Why must I replace both rollers at the same time?
Both rear drum support rollers carry the same load and experience the same wear through every drying cycle. When one roller fails, the other has been under the same stress for the same number of cycles and is almost certainly near the end of its useful life. Replacing only the failed roller leaves one worn roller supporting the drum unevenly, which puts extra stress on the new roller and causes it to wear out much faster. Replace both rollers at the same time to ensure even drum support and get the full service life from the new parts.
Should I also replace the belt and idler pulley at the same time?
Yes — this is the ideal time. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access the rear drum rollers, replacing the drum belt (341241) and idler pulley (691366 or 279640) at the same time is strongly recommended. All three parts wear at similar rates, and a worn belt or idler pulley is often what caused the rollers to wear prematurely. Doing all three in one repair eliminates the most common drum drive failure points and saves you from repeating the teardown in the near future. The 4392065 maintenance kit includes all three parts together.
What causes dryer drum rollers to wear out?
Drum rollers wear naturally over time from the continuous load of supporting the rotating drum. The most common accelerating factors are operating the dryer with a worn or broken belt (which allows the drum to sag and puts extra weight on the rollers), running very large or heavy loads frequently, and allowing lint to accumulate around the roller shafts, which causes the bearings to run dry and wear faster. Regular dryer maintenance — including cleaning lint from around the drum and periodically checking the belt — helps extend roller life.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement set built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from rubber, metal, and plastic to match the dimensions and load-bearing performance of the original 349241T drum roller set.

XPARTCO 341241 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO 341241 is an aftermarket replacement dryer drum belt compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-family dryers including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Roper, Admiral, Jenn-Air, Estate, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Modern Maid, Hardwick, Caloric, and Ikea. The drum belt wraps around the outside of the dryer drum, loops around the motor pulley and idler pulley, and drives the drum to rotate during every drying cycle. Without a functioning belt, the drum cannot spin and clothes will not tumble or dry.
Made from high-strength rubber with reinforced ribs, this belt measures 92-1/4 inches long x 1/4 inch wide and features 4 ribs and 3 grooves. It is flat on one side and ribbed on the other, and is built to resist cracking, stretching, and wear under the high heat and repeated tension cycles of daily dryer use. It also replaces some 5-rib, 4-groove belts. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.

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

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. 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.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Safety First — Unplug Dryer Before Starting Unplug the dryer from the power source (and shut off the gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair. Remove the lint screen, then unscrew the Phillips screws inside the lint screen housing. Use a putty knife to release the top panel clips and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum and drive components. Release belt tension at the old idler pulley, lift the drum slightly, and slide the old belt off. Remove the old idler arm assembly by unscrewing the mounting screw, then install the new W10837240 idler pulley assembly and secure with the screw. Loop the new WPW10112954 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing inward, then route it around the new idler pulley and motor pulley. Consult your model's service manual or a model-specific repair video for the correct belt path. Reassemble and run a test cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I replace the belt and idler pulley at the same time?
The belt and idler pulley wear together — when one fails, the other is usually close behind. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access either part, replacing both in a single repair saves you from having to take the machine apart again soon after. It also protects the new belt from being damaged by a worn pulley, and vice versa.
How does the W10837240 differ from other Whirlpool idler pulleys?
The W10837240 is the updated idler pulley arm and bracket assembly designed for Whirlpool-family dryers that have the lint screen inside the door. It replaces the older W10547287 and W10547290 assemblies. Some older or different Whirlpool models use a different idler pulley style — if you're unsure which one your dryer needs, contact our support team with your model number before ordering.
What is the difference between WPW10112954 and W10112954?
These are the same belt. WPW10112954 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original W10112954. Both refer to the identical drum belt included in this kit.
Should I also replace the drum rollers at the same time?
It depends on the condition of your rollers. Since the dryer is already fully disassembled, it is a good opportunity to inspect the drum support rollers for flat spots, cracks, or wobbling. If they show any wear, replacing them at the same time is recommended to avoid a third disassembly. Check your model's roller part number before ordering.
Are these OEM or aftermarket parts?
