belt on old maytag dishwasher broke

removed screws that secured cover plates. discovered that belt was broken. ordered new belt. ordered friday; delivered monday. read some previous repair experiences.

the trick to getting belt onto the pulleys is to first wrap it around the spindle part. then set the belt into the motor pulley groove. carefully start working the belt in the other pulley into the groove while rotating both pulleys. i had to lay on my stomach on the floor to do this, but it did not take very long. once the belt is in place, lubricate it with the included gel. took about 20 minutes with some trial and error.
