Motor runs and you can hear it humming, but the drum stays completely still — classic broken or detached drive belt.
Loud squeaking, slapping, or rhythmic thumping during the dry cycle caused by a worn, glazed, or misaligned drum belt.
Belt-break switch detects a snapped belt and prevents the dryer from starting to protect the motor from running unloaded.
Slipping or stretched belt causes drum to rotate too slowly or intermittently, resulting in poor tumbling and damp laundry.
💡 Pro Tip: Is Your Drum Belt the Problem?
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Dryer motor hums or runs but the drum does not tumble or spin
⚠️ Loud squeaking, thumping, or slapping noise during the dry cycle
⚠️ Dryer will not start at all — belt break triggers the belt-break switch shutoff
⚠️ Visible belt fraying, glazing, or belt lying loose inside the drum cabinet
🔍 Diagnosis Tip: Open the dryer door and try to spin the drum by hand. If it spins freely with zero resistance, the belt is almost certainly broken. While you have the cabinet open, inspect the idler pulley and drum support rollers — worn pulleys are the #1 cause of premature belt failure. Replace them together to avoid a repeat repair within months.
