Belt broke

Following video instructions, replaced the belt. Did it once before so this time it was easier. Two years ago I replaced the plastic fan as it was spinning on moter shaft making a loud noise. (The moulded plastic fan has a flat which slides on the motor shaft. The motor start up torque over time (15 + years)stripped the flat allowing the fan to spin on assembly.) The mistake I made was not replacing the belt when I had the machine apart to replace the fan.

replaced the worn tumbler belt

In addition to removing front of dryer, had to ultimately remove the access plate at rear of machine to thread the belt. Found aligning the belt to be a bit of a chore as the belt wanted to ride in the groove on the drum which didn't align with the motor pulley. Didn't have the correct wrench for the four sheet metal screws that held the rear plate and had to use pliers. Patience finally paid off and the machine is back in action.
