H0180800201D Genuine Front Drum Guide Bearing for Fisher & Paykel, Haier Clothes Dryers, Drum Support Roller

H0180800201D is a genuine Haier front drum guide bearing for Fisher & Paykel and Haier clothes dryers. The front of the drum rides on guide rollers like this one, and the D version is listed separately from the twin pack in the same family. We don't have a model list for it, so check the number on your old roller and count how many your dryer uses before ordering.

Noisy dryer? Worn drum guide bearings are a common cause

The drum turns on a shaft at the back, while the front edge is carried by guide rollers. Lint, heat and years of loads wear the rollers flat or dry out their bearings. You'll hear squealing, a rhythmic thump or a grinding noise that gets worse as the drum heats up. A drum that wobbles, scrapes on the front panel or wears a groove in the felt seal also points to the guides. Replacing the rollers early saves damage to the drum and seal.

Changing the guide rollers

Unplug the dryer and remove the lint filter. You'll usually need to take off the front panel to reach the rollers, so photograph any wiring to the door switch first. Support the drum while the front is off. Clean out the lint, fit the new roller and replace any others that are worn, then spin the drum by hand to check it runs quietly.

Questions about this part

Should I replace both front rollers?

If your dryer uses two, it's sensible to change them together, as they wear at a similar rate. Our records don't say whether this number is a single roller or a set, so ask through the parts enquiry form if you're unsure.
