The idler pulley failed after which the belt jumped the track and motor pulley broke the drum belt. A relatively easy problem to fix. See You Tube helper videos.

I replaced both the broken belt and idler pulley together. The whole job took about 20 minutes or so.

Great replacement part

Original idler was just a curved piece of sheet metal. An actual rotating wheel is a great upgrade that should extend belt life an provide quieter operation.

Better than the original part.

The idler pulley has a full wheel, which is an upgrade from the original which was a metal sliding surface. Also bought rear roller wheels and a drum belt for my Whirlpool gas dryer. All fit perfectly and easy to install.
