    This video was a great guide to changing out the rollers. Hardest part was putting the door back on.

    Steve, you're my hero. I was completely dumbfounded how difficult it appeared to get to the idler pulley, but with this video you sure did show me truly how easy it was. I can't thank you enough. This video is a true help. Plus, you made me look like a pro in front of the wife. Thank you again.

    This is a much better video than another I watched. I couldn't see how the belt was threaded through the tensioner in the other video. Thank you. Just cost me the 25 bucks for the belt plus my clothes are drying now.

    Great video. I did this and cleaned the wheels as they were gunked with hair and lint. I sprayed them with a little WD-40 and made sure none dropped down. Just a temp fix until the parts arrive. It’s now extremely quiet but when I open the door, I’m getting a slight burning smell. It’s only when I open the dryer door. Any ideas?

    Hello, thanks for your question. The idler pulley may actually need to be replaced. Can you provide your model number and some detail on the symptoms your dryer is presenting? Thanks.

    My idler pulley arms are grinding against the motor pulley, making a horrible sound (Frigidaire Heavy Duty Dryer). Do I need to replace entire part or is there a way to adjust the idler pulley arms so they don't grind up against the motor pulley?

    Mine will still squeak a little with no weight in it,,, like testing it. With six or seven towels in it, and they weren't real heavy as they were dry, I didn't hear a squeak at all

    i have a very similar dryer to this, after replacing my drum rollers, it seems that my idler pulley has too much tension now, to the point that it gets pulled out. What can I do?
