The drum belt attaches to the motor pulley and causes the drum to spin as the motor is rotating. The drum belt is made of black rubber. This is an easy repair and should only take a few minutes. This goes between the drive motor and the dryer drum. The belt may have broken, which will cause the drum to not turn properly. You will need to pull your dryer away from the wall and use your Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws on the back. This is an OEM product, shipped directly from the manufacturer.

I can't get tension on the belt. I have a new tensioner and belt
Hi James,
Thank you for your question. You may not be installing the part correctly. The belt is usually installed around the drum first, then you would pinch your belt together near the bottom, lift your idler pulley up and place the ribbed part of the belt around the motor pulley. Then you press your idler pulley down on to the belt to get your tension. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

My dryer is making a loud squealing noise. Is there a problem with the drive belt? If not, what could it be?
For model number DV42H5000EW
Hi Rubie,
Thank you for your question. It could be the drive belt. I would also suggest taking a look at your rollers and your bearing as well. It sounds like something has just worn down in your appliance and needs to be replaced out. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Will turn on but wont start
For model number Dv328aew xaa
Hi Rebecca,
Thank you for your question. If the dryer will not start, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which ones are causing the issue. You will need to check the dryer door switch, the push-to start switch, the thermal fuse, the electronic control board, the motor and the belt. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hi.The tension clip had fallen off, and the spring undone. i fixed those, and put the belt on the drum first as you described. then put the belt on the tension ring, and the motor ring. the belt is still too lose. could the belt be stretched out? or is there a third place to hook the belt that i'm not seeing?
thanks

Hooking up belt and pully
Followed video and YouTube most was easy.... put the hooking up the belt took time
After viewing many instructions on how to replace a broken drum drive belt on UTUBE and the video you sent me the project was completed with no problems and with ease.
However, I did discover large amounts of lint caked to the bottom of the lint screen housing just beyond the filter screen. There was minimal lint on the lint exhaust fan blades and no lint in the exhaust ducts.
I didn't recall seeing any video instructions drawing attention to potential lint issues, it just made good sense to clean the entire system while it was apart . At first I saw no major lint problem.
However, after removing the lint screen and placing a vacuum cleaner wand to the bottom of the lint screen housing (the bottom is not easy to see) my vacuum cleaner hose became clogged three times. I realized there was a major lint issue isolated to this area.
Many of the on line complaints focused on parts not properly fitting their dryer. they had to modify the parts in some way to fit or operate or they had to return them for other parts. Just think of the time wasted and the lack of use of their dryer.
I called and talked to a tech. Gave them my model number and the tech located the correct OEM parts for my dryer. I paid the extra money for OEM parts because I wanted my dryer fixed and restored to service in the least amount of time.
Outside the discovery of the not so obvious lint issue, the repair project was easy and the dryer was restored to full service with minimal down time.
Thanks for all your help and fast delivery service.

Straight forward repair@
Perfect fit. Solid construct. Exactly what I needed. Wrap around drum and lift and place in spot on rollers holding top of belt to keep untwisted. Reach in from front to place on tension spring arm wheel.

The right choice
The right size, the right thickness, wide, fit perfectly, I compared it to the original used one and it is absolutely identical. I advice whoever not to buy the cheap ones from different site, they are thinner and for sure not a good quality.

Part worked like a charm
The drive belt came a little later than expected, but was easy to install and works well. I had previously purchased an after market belt through a popular retail website, but it was an inch or two shorter than it needed to be and was almost impossible to get over the tension pulley even when the tensioner was pulled all the way back. From now on I will only purchase OEM parts!
