Part 205552P Idler Pulley

Purpose

Maintains washer belt tension

Details

The 205552P idler pulley is a genuine OEM component designed for select Speed Queen and Alliance-built top load washers. This pulley works within the belt drive system to maintain proper tension on the drive belt during agitation and spin cycles. By keeping consistent pressure on the belt, it ensures smooth power transfer from the motor to the transmission and tub assembly. A worn or seized idler pulley can cause squealing noises, slipping belts, reduced spin speed, or failure to agitate. Replacing a faulty pulley restores proper belt alignment and dependable washer operation. Compatibility varies by model; confirm with your model’s diagram before installation.
