Samsung DC61-01215B Etc Idler Tension Spring for Dryer

The Samsung DC61-01215B functions as a tension spring in various Samsung washing machines and dryers. This component applies a pulling force similar to that of a metal coil. Its specific placement and role can vary based on the appliance model. The spring helps maintain the correct tension on the drive belt, facilitating the motor's ability to rotate the drum or other parts. In some models, the idler pulley, which guides and supports the belt, may be affected by the tension provided by the spring. Additionally, the DC61-01215B may apply pressure or tension to certain internal mechanisms within the washing machine, depending on the specific design of the appliance.
