How to Replace a Dryer's Drum Belt

Article Category: Home Management

Author Name: Chris Kauffman

If you're experiencing problems with your drying not spinning your clothes, it is likely the drive belt that is the culprit. This clothes dryer part is vital to the proper working of your machine.

Just as there is a belt that works in conjunction with the motor of your car, the drive belt and motor within your dryer keep the drum rolling. If this part becomes faulty due to normal wear and tear, your dryer may stop spinning altogether.

In order to fix this problem, you need to be able to access the back of the dryer but before you do anything, unplug the machine. To access the back, it will be necessary to remove the vent duct, which is attached to the machine. Depending upon how the duct is attached to the dryer, you might have to call in an expert to do this for you.

In order to access the inner workings of the dryer, it is necessary to determine if it has screw fasteners or the more common snap locks and clips used today. There might also be additional fasteners for a lint filter assembly, which must also be removed.

To get into the dryer, the top must be pried open first using a flat screwdriver or putty knife. This will allow you to see the dryer drum, as well as the narrow rubber belt that will be wrapped around it. If this belt is loose or even missing, you've found the problem.

It is vital that you unfasten any electrical wires before proceeding and prop up the dryer top while working to avoid any accidents. To more easily access the drum, you must lift up and remove the machine's front panel. Look for two clips to release this part. If there are none, check under the dryer for any extra screws or fasteners that might need to be removed.

Once the panel is off, you will be able to remove the drum. Remove the belt and take it to your local hardware store or appliance part manufacturer to purchase a replacement. When replacing the belt on the drum, make sure it is in the proper location. When finished, you can put the drum back into the dryer housing.

It will then be necessary to inspect the belt tensioner and motor. The belt must go through the tensioner and around the motor's pulley carefully following the previous belt's traction grooves. The tension of the belt can make all the difference in how the drum operates. Once this is done, the machine can be put back together.

If you open your dryer and find that the drum's belt is still in the proper position, you should check out the electric motor that rotates the drum, as well as any other electrical switches to ensure that they are in working order.
