Idler Pulley Assembly DC93-00634A

This idler pulley assembly includes the pulley wheel and bracket, and is located near the motor in compatible dryer models. It maintains tension on the dryer belt, allowing the drum to rotate smoothly during cycles. Over time, wear on the pulley or its bearings can cause squeaking, grinding, or belt misalignment. If left unchecked, this can prevent the drum from turning altogether. To replace, disconnect power, access the pulley by disassembling the dryer, remove the old assembly, and install the new one. Ensure the belt is properly threaded and tensioned before reassembling the appliance.
