Common Symptoms
- Dryer hums but the drum does not start turning.
- Dryer stops turning during a cycle.
- Dryer will not start or will not turn at all.
- Motor may trip the circuit breaker when starting.
Check Before Replacing
- Disconnect power before inspection or service.
- With power disconnected, check whether the drum rotates reasonably freely by hand; excessive resistance can indicate a separate drum-support, idler, belt, or blower obstruction issue.
- Inspect the drive belt and motor pulley for visible damage, separation, or slipping.
- Visually inspect the motor wiring harness and connector for looseness, scorching, or damage.
- If the motor hums, stops after warming, or trips the breaker, rule out belt, idler, drum, blower-wheel, door-switch, and electrical-supply problems before condemning the motor.
