Watched this video to replace the idler pulley. Excellent step by step instruction. Took a minute to figure out how to get the belt back on the pulley and motor but figured it out. Should have taken a picture of it before removing the drum.
Just used this to fix mine! Took me about an hour, but I've never done anything like this and I'm just a mom at home alone with my 2 kids, so I was impressed with myself anyway 😂 Thank you for this step by step. It was very helpful, and the demonstration of the part being locked up was nice to help me confirm that was the issue I was having. I couldn't figure out how to get the belt back on, but I had the tech manual and it showed the path and I got it from that image!
Thank You! I have this exact machine and I followed your instructions and had the bad pulley replaced in about an hour. For those asking below, you cannot access the pulley from the back, it must be done the way shown in this video. Stupid design that there is no access panel in the back but it is what it is.
@@LeonardVidaureAKASkinner I had no problems with slack. Are you sure you are routing the belt correctly? It took me a few tries to get it routed correctly. Look at other videos on RUclips. They show how to route the belt better than this video.
This video was a lifesaver. I had never worked on a dryer before, but this made it super easy. Plus, this was the only video I found for my dryer model. Thank you!
Awesome step by step instructions replaced the idler pulley in 35 minutes and have never taken a dryer apart. Excellent video and great instructions. Also the way you started the video showing what the noise sounded like gave me confidence that I was replacing the correct part. Thanks for the video!!

My idler pulley was bad and this helped 100%. Awsome job. Super simple and easy to follow. My dryer is up and running again! Thank you very much kind sir.
Watched this video and it definitely helped me understand how to fix my dryer. However, did not need to take the control panel apart as this video suggested. Was able to just remove the four screws in the back of dryer, and then was able to loosen top and get it out of the way. Did use a lot of the information though when fixing my dryer. Thanks!!
THANKS!!! Your excellent video instructions helped me fix my squealing dryer. It took a little longer than some of your other commenters mentioned, but after it was done, I decided it was well worth the time. Oh, after getting it all put together, I found that I had a couple of "extra" screws...having to partially disassemble again to discover where those "extra" screws were supposed to go probably accounted for some of the added time.
Thanks for the video, just replaced the idle pulley much easier than I thought it would be thanks to your video, had the dryer since 2011 first issue with it I must say that I am surprised there aren't more dryer fires with the amount of lint that gathers inside, I was surprised how much was on the inside.
This video helped us get inside the dryer to fix it. As is turned out for us, the rollers and pulley needed hair removed from between the rod and wheel. The clip release was different on our dryer. The clips located below the door had to be pushed down to release. This video saved us big time! Thanks!!!

I have never trusted myself to take apart an appliance and repair it on my own. Your step by step instructions worked like a charm and, instead of having to pay hundreds to repair or replace the dryer, it cost me $36 and some time. My only suggestion would be to have some closeup shots of tricker things like unplugging console pieces and how to loop the belt. Thankfully there was a repairman' manual hidden inside the console and I was able to figure it out from there.

@@Appliancevideo I'm having a hard thumping sound coming from my dryer. How would I be able to find out there's something in there? Where would that be located at? When it's running it's just a hard thumping sound everything else works, but I haven't used it because idk if there's something died in there. Please help thank you

I had the same problem, but it is the way the belt is wrapped around the crank shaft and the pulley. The belt goes counter clockwise around the motor post making a c shape, then lift the pulley lever to the left and loop the top part of the belt coming off the motor under and over the pulley making a backwards c. Essentially making a backwards s between the shaft and pulley. I hope this helps someone, because I spent so long google how to wrap the belt. I would post a picture, but I can’t figure out how

Ryan, thank you for your video! As a fellow Buckeye.... I wanted to give you an A+ for your video, but I have to give you a FAIL! You failed to heavily emphasize to viewers to UNPLUG their dryer before doing open heart surgery. You slightly mentioned it once, with very little emphasis. People's lives are at stake here... EMPHASIZE!!! Other than that, I'd give you a B- overall. A lot of the video angles could have been shown a LOT better. Thank you!
I just want to THANK YOU!!! My new to me dry made a HORRIBLE noise as soon as it was plugged in. Found your video. Took it apart. Thank goodness i did because the ppl never cleaned it and it looked like the lint already caught fire. Cleaned it up. Put it back together. No noise 🎉 (it was some piece of metal that i guess got some how that was caught between the drum and the case) only took me 3 hrs by myself w 3 kids and 3 cats running around. But YOUR video helped me get apart and put it back together😊🎉🎉🎉🎉

Great video! How do you remove the little spring clips that hood the rollers on?
Good video but your hand was in the way. I needed to see how the spring was attached. Which side of the spring went on pulley???
You can pull the back panel off plug it in and watch the tensioner pulley to check it as well. Takes 5 min
I removed the moisture sensor clips individually and now I don’t know where the black wired clip goes and where the yellow and red one goes.
When I put the belt under the pulley and under the motor shaft it is not tight. The belt is the same size and I just needed to replace the pulley.
Why does my belt so LOOSE when putting the drum back in with the belt?!?!?
Why would my new belt of a one month old seem like the drum is dragging
Dang I can't get the clips for the bottom of the of front panel to come off
same here. I used large flat head driver that has strong force to press the clip down.
Is the belt loose when you put it back on
