Idler Pulley Assembly
The idler pulley maintains tension on the drive belt. High-pitched squealing occurs when the internal ball bearings lose lubrication or develop flat spots, resulting in high-frequency vibrations during high-RPM rotation. Replacing the entire arm and pulley assembly restores proper tension and silent rotation.

Drum Support Roller
These rollers support the rotating mass of the drum. Over time, the shaft bushings can accumulate lint and lose their factory lubricant, leading to a high-pitched metal-on-metal squeal as the drum rotates. This failure is often exacerbated by heavy laundry loads increasing the radial force on the bearing surface.

Drive Belt
If the idler pulley or a drum roller begins to seize, the drive belt will slip over the non-rotating surface. This friction creates intense heat and a distinct high-pitched squeal as the rubber compound glazes over. Replacement is necessary once the belt has been subjected to this thermal damage to prevent snapping.
