Hi. I've replaced my belt but it seems to slip if there is more than just a little weight in the drum. My thought was to replace the idler also as perhaps it's fatigued from age. The replacement part has a wheel in the pic which seems better than mine which is just a half round solid piece which seems like it would cause more drag/friction. Could the replacement part be different than the original?
For model number LGR5636KQ1
Hello James, thank you for writing. This Idler Pulley Assembly is the correct replacement for your model, and may be the cause of what you describe. Replacement parts are sometimes updated by the manufacturer and may be different in appearance but will have the same functionality. We hope this helps.

My tensioner broke.Do i have to replace any relays or safety switches or heating elements?
For model number 77965100
Hello Edward, thank you for your question. If the idler pulley is the only part that broken, and it didn't damage the belt switch this is the only part you should have to replace. I hope this helps!

My dryer has a wear pad instead of a idler pulley
For model number Lgr3624jq2
Hello John, thank you for your question. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has updated that wear pad and no longer has it available. They have changed the part to the idler pulley, and have advised it would work as a replacement for the original part. That part is PartSelect Number PS11743765. I hope this helps.

My dryer worked fine for about five minutes this morning. The tumbler stopped. I can hear a buzzing sound like it’s on. But when i push the start button, it will not tumble.
For model number LER5644AWO
Hello Cherry, thank you for your question. If the unit is turning on, but the drum is not tumbling we would recommend checking the belt PartSelect Number: PS346995. If the unit is not starting or tumbling you will want to test the start switch, timer, motor and fuse. I hope this helps.

Hi, this morning i tried throwing in a quick load of laundry but instead of just starting like usual a very loud banging/thumping noise is what i got from my dryer. I guess the best way to explain the sound is, like drying a pair of really heavy shoes.

Today when I started my dryer, it made a squeaking sound and the drum did not turn. I called up your website, since I have used it with two other repairs, to learn what the problem could be. It is not the belt, it is not broken. It is not the idler pulley because it is a fixed metal support with a groove for the drum belt and the drum moves freely when I turn it by hand. I don't know what to check next or how to test the part to determine if it not working. Any suggestions?
For model number KGYS700JQ0
Hi Sue, Thank you for the question. This sounds like an issue with the Drive Motor with Pulley, PartSelect Number PS334304.Hope this helps!

Replaced the belt on our dryer and turned it on and it ran for a few seconds and cut off. Smelled like something was getting hot and took apart look to see that everything was lined up again and nothing looked like it was melting. Put back together and start it again and just like before ran for about 5 seconds and quit and again smelled like something getting hot. What could be the problem
For model number CEDS563SQO
Hi Kim, Thank you for the question. I suggest checking the belt to make sure it is not to tight. You can also check the idler pulley for the belt to ensure the pulley isn't bent or out of place. Sounds like something might be out of place. Hope this helps!

dyer is squeaking (not a solid squeak) and slight knocking noise (sometimes stops for a few seconds). I tore it apart today and the belt is worn and fraying. The tensioner pulley looked fine. Would the belt cause the noises or is it a symptom of a bigger problem. Thanks.
For model number NED4705EW1
Hi Cody, thank you for reaching out. The issue you are facing will be most probably solved by replacing the drive belt, part number PS346995. However, you can also inspect the drum rollers. We hope this sorts out your problem!
