Common Symptoms
- Drum remains stationary while the motor runs.
- Belt slips or loses proper drive when the motor pulley is worn, damaged, or detached.
- Abnormal belt-tracking or drive noise associated with a damaged pulley.
Check Before Replacing
- With power disconnected, inspect the motor pulley for visible damage, looseness, or separation from the motor shaft.
- Check whether the drum belt is correctly seated on the motor pulley and whether the pulley rotates with the motor shaft.
- Verify the dryer model number before ordering because pulley fit is model-specific.
Pro Tip
Inspect the motor shaft and drum belt at the same time; a damaged pulley may be accompanied by belt damage or shaft-thread wear.
