Crosley Dryer Drive Belt Parts — Models & Compatibility

Your Crosley dryer runs, but the drum won't turn? That's the drive belt. This W10131172 replacement belt fits over a dozen Crosley dryer models, and it's the same belt used in Whirlpool and Maytag dryers — they're all part of the same family. The belt stretches around the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley to keep everything spinning smoothly.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

Check your dryer's model number before ordering. On most Crosley dryers, you'll find it inside the door opening on the front panel, or sometimes on the back panel near the power cord. Match your model number against our compatibility list below. This belt works across CED (electric) and CGD (gas) series dryers from 2008-2015.

About This Replacement Belt

Drive belts wear out gradually — they stretch, crack, and eventually snap after years of friction and heat. You'll know it's failing when the dryer runs but the drum stays still, or when you hear excessive noise during operation. Sometimes the belt just slips off if it's stretched too much. The W10131172 is a direct OEM-quality replacement that restores proper drum rotation. One installation note: make sure your new belt isn't twisted when you loop it around the drum — a twisted belt will squeal and wear out fast.

What You'll Need for Installation

This is a moderately difficult repair if you've never opened a dryer before, but it's manageable with basic tools. You'll need a screwdriver to remove the lint filter housing, a putty knife to pop the top panel clips, and a socket or nut driver to remove the front drum panel. The hardest part is threading the belt around the motor pulley and idler — take a photo before removing the old belt so you remember the routing path.

Why Crosley Belts Fail

Heat and friction are the enemies here. Every time your dryer runs, that belt flexes around three different pulleys thousands of times per load. Over years of use, the rubber compound hardens, cracks appear on the underside, and eventually it snaps. Heavy loads accelerate wear because the motor has to work harder to turn the drum. If you hear squealing before the belt breaks completely, that's your warning sign — the belt is glazed and slipping on the pulleys.
