Dryer stopped turning
If you are replacing the belt- I recommend to order the Idler pulley and Felt bushing for drum - UNPLUG DRYER- 1. Open door-remove 2 screws top corners, 2. Lift top of dryer up and out to remove, 3. Remove 4 front screws (2 each side near top) 4. Pull Front of dryer out and up- disconnect wires to door- 5. remove Left side panel (looki ng at front of dryer) by removing 5 screws in back. 6. Remove old belt, put new belt around drum from the front and slide to middle of drum and loop over drive motor. 8 replace Idler pulley, and push pulley so it catches the back of the belt loop and holds tension 9 Reinstall left side dryer panel 10 install felt on dryer front and reinstall (lift drum opening so it lines up with door 11 reinstall front - connect wires - install top and tighten all screws.. Plug in- done
