BSH also writes this number as 00632045, so you may see either on parts lists. It's a common wear item, since it spins every time the drum turns. Check your parts list or compare the old roller before ordering, as BSH dryers don't all share one tensioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSquealing or thumping dryer? A worn tension roller is a likely cause\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside the dryer, the belt runs from the motor pulley around the drum. The tension roller presses against the belt so it grips the pulley instead of slipping. As the roller's bearing wears, it starts to squeal, grind or thump, usually loudest at the start of a cycle. A seized or broken roller lets the belt go slack, so the motor runs but the drum turns slowly or not at all. With the machine open, spin the roller by hand. Roughness, wobble or flat spots mean it's due for replacement, and it's worth checking the belt for cracks while you're in there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine BSH part number 632045\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as 00632045\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBelt tension roller (idler) wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits Bosch and Siemens dryers that use part 632045\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the tension roller\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer before removing any panels.
