FAQ

This idler pulley is used on many dryer models across multiple brands, including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Roper, Amana, Admiral, Crosley, Estate, Inglis, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Norge, Hardwick, Modern Maid, and some Bosch-built compatible applications. The title also references model numbers WED4815EW1 and NED4655EW1 as known fits. Because dryer parts can vary by full model and production series, match your complete model number and the original pulley part number before ordering.
Known replacements and cross-reference numbers for this part include 691366, W10612905, WP691366, AP6010582, 239477, 3394332, 347034, 347226, PS11743765, 26000691366, 337116, 337407, 337510, 3388345, 338946, 347277, 4319391, and 688166.
The idler pulley keeps proper tension on the dryer drum belt so the drum can rotate correctly. If the pulley seizes, wears out, or develops excessive play, the belt may slip, squeal, fray, or come off entirely, which can stop the drum from turning.
Typical symptoms include a squealing or chirping noise during operation, a scraping or thumping sound from the drum area, the drum not turning even though the motor runs, repeated belt wear or breakage, or a burning-rubber smell if the belt is dragging on a seized pulley. These symptoms can also overlap with worn drum rollers or a damaged belt, so it is smart to inspect all three while the dryer is open.
For most Whirlpool-built dryers, this is usually a moderate repair. Expect about 30 to 90 minutes depending on the model and your experience. Common tools are a putty knife or flat blade to release the top on some models, a 1/4-inch nut driver, a Phillips screwdriver, and work gloves. You typically disconnect power, open the cabinet, relieve belt tension, remove the old pulley, and route the belt back around the motor pulley and idler arm.
Inspect the drum belt for cracks, glazing, or frayed edges, and spin the drum rollers by hand to check for roughness or wobble. Also look at the idler arm pivot for wear and clean out lint buildup inside the cabinet. If the old pulley failed due to seizure or noise, replacing the belt and worn rollers at the same time can help prevent a repeat teardown.
