LG Washing Machine Spring,Coil

The Genuine LG 4970EL3003E Dryer Coil Spring is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) tension spring engineered specifically for LG clothes dryers. This heavy-duty extension spring connects to the dryer's idler pulley mechanism, applying constant tension to the drive belt wrapped around the dryer drum. Replacing a stretched, broken, or rusted coil spring ensures the belt stays properly aligned and taut, preventing the drum from stopping mid-cycle.

Key Features

• Authentic OEM replacement part ensuring exact factory dimensions and tension rates.

• High-tensile spring steel construction designed to withstand continuous heat and mechanical flex.

• Corrosion-resistant zinc/silver finish protects against humidity and thermal wear.

• Dual looped end hooks for secure attachment to the idler arm and chassis anchor points.

Benefits

• Restores proper drive belt tension to eliminate slipping, squeaking, or drum stalling.

• Protects the dryer motor and drive belt from premature wear caused by loose tension.

• Keeps the dryer drum tumbling efficiently for even drying cycles.

Applications

• Used in LG gas and electric clothes dryer idler pulley drive assemblies.

What's Included

• 1 x Genuine LG Dryer Coil Spring (Part # 4970EL3003E)

Usage Instructions

• Unplug the dryer from the power outlet and turn off gas supply (if applicable).

• Remove the front or rear access panel according to your model’s service instructions.
