Thank you kind stranger, I was having one of the worst days of my life and to top it off the dryer quit spinning right after washing a huge load of clothes at 8 PM. After watching this video my blood pressure is returning to normal. You are a true TH-cam gem.
Is there a way for us to send you at least $5?? This simple, straight to the point, no nonsense video saved us all money, time, and a headache! You're a blessing. Thank you!
Update 3/15/22: I did it, I actually did it! The belt had broken so I bought a new one. The Lord was my guide while I watched your video 😮💨 . It was very helpful that we have the same exact dryer so yeah 🤗 Thanks again and may God bless you for your VERY helpful video. 😁👍 *** Thank God for people like you! Your video was short and sweet. You gave very clear instructions and they were so simple that this novice is going to give it a try and save some money. By the way, we have the exact same dryer so I definitely know that God answered my prayer. Thanks again and may God shower you with His many blessings. 👍👍😁
What an excellent, detailed, concise video! A couple of notes: At 1:00, we see the idler pulley and the bracket that holds it. This bracket is thin-gauge metal, designed to flex and impose tension on the belt. It's basically a leaf spring in addition to a bracket. At 1:10, we see this bracket reinserted into the bottom of the dryer and the proper belt configuration with respect to the pulley and motor shaft. The tension on the belt pulls the pulley close enough to the motor shaft to thread the belt onto it, and it also holds the bracket down onto the dryer base. I found it worked best to install the bracket loosely, line up the drum, loop the belt around the drum, thread the belt over the idler pulley, then thread the belt onto the motor shaft. A second pair of arms always helps.
@@latitude1904 The white, round, plastic part shown at 1:04 is the idler pulley. (The video calls it a roller.) The bracket (video calls it a roller guide) is the gray, metal piece that holds the idler pulley. The purpose of the idler pulley is is to pull the belt tight, which is why the bracket is like a spring, pulling its part of the belt to the left. I hope this helps.
Just fixed my parents dryer with this. Only thing I could have used in the video is making sure to put a loop through the inside of the pulley to grab onto the motor. Saved my folks at least a couple hundred and at most $700 for a new unit. Good stuff
I work at 8 tomorrow and needed to dry my work clothes before hand and this vid saved my ass trying to figure out what was wrong at 2 in the morning thank you man
This video helped me out tremendously. Also I wanted to pass along this bit of info. If you open up your dryer to find your belt heavily frayed or snapped, make sure you measure the belt and count the number of "ribs" and inside "grooves" on the flip side of the belt. My belt measured 92.25" long and had 4 "ribs" and 3 "grooves" inside those ribs. On lowes website they only had like 3 generic belts to replace the dryer belt, when i went on walmart's website they had several dozen belts that allowed me to get exactly the belt i needed. The one I found on walmart's website that fit mine perfectly was a 92" belt with 4 ribs and 3 grooves and .25" wide. (most like .25" stretching from age on the length.) Measurements matter, make sure you measure before you buy. Too loose it might fall off again, too tight and your belt might snap.
Helped us out, Thank you!!! We actually got our new dryer belt & had a lot of trouble putting it on I told my husband to measure it & low & behold it came in a 92” package but measured only 88 inches !!!
awesome video man, i have been fixing shit from watching videos on youtube for years and you gave more useful info in 1 minute and 53 seconds than i have gotten from other videos that where half an hour. I wish i could have you translate some truck repair videos for me because they have 20 minutes of fuckery and then maybe a minute worth of knowledge. Hats off to you man, you literally saved me money, time, and a headache so you got a new subscriber out of me and i will have to go through your other videos. Thanks again.
I was very happy also, but the drum fell off when I pulled the front off and didn't know how to put the belt, pulley on the drum.. found th-cam.com/video/0kikNN0gVC0/w-d-xo.html - this which filled in the gaps.. BOTH wonderful videos, thank you.
Thank You for this. Now I know what's wrong with my dryer and what to do. I really appreciate you being straight to the point no begging for subscribers and likes, no gimicks just straight to the point and very useful info.
WOW what the odds that the Very First video that pops up for Me has MY Exact dryer as the Example 👏👏👏 Thank you Father God for leading me 🙏 And thank you for posting!!
Great video. The only thing I would add after successfully changing the belt following your instructions is that you need to make sure that the belt is on Straight, and is not twisted.
Saved me a couple hundred bucks I found out my belt snapped and the pulley wasn't mounted I went to Lowes bought a new belt for 6 bucks everything is working great now thank you 👍
Thank you so much for this video, you're a total life saver as we're parents of 4 and do tons of laundry and luckily this was the problem so we really appreciate you and this video
Cool! Got 2 loads of wet clothes from yesterday tearing into it this afternoon. Cant afford to pay anyone this time of yr. Sounded like it was laboring some last week knew it was about to puke. Love myolder Kenmores, easy to fix as an old Schwinn!
Usually if the drum is not going round is because the belt has snapped. I can remember my Grandma's old Hotpoint Reversomatic Super Deluxe Time Delay 9336 tumble dryer did that when me and my mum were lodging there and they tried to do the washing in it and the drum wouldn't go round but the motor was working. Even more so when the motor stopped it would slow down fast which proved the belt was off. The repair man came fixed it and successfully got it working again. But then it kept breaking down in the end he couldn't mend it anymore my grandparents bought a new dryer a Hotpoint TDL32. But then they didn't like it as it didn't have the same features so they gave it to my Mum and bought a Hotpoint TDL34. The Hotpoint 9336 went in the garage for a while as my uncle said he would try and mend it himself but he never got round to it. In the end it went down the scrapyard. I'm still on the lookout for that dryer. It is my favourite Hotpoint of all time. I just recently bought a Servis Caress M2010 tumble dryer which is my other favourite dryer of all time as my father And his then partner Way had that dryer when I was very little along with a Indesit washer. Those were only there for a little bit they got rid of them right a d sold that House. Before those two they had a Zanussi washing machine with a broken door handle and they had to use a knife and spoon to get the door open.
I just checked mine cause its not spinning and come to find out it snapped! ***UPDATE*** I ordered the belt and also I needed that pulley got both parts in and install dryer back working like a champ thank you sir!
@@60brianaguilar mine is a Kenmore brand what brand is yours and the part and model numbers should be right in the opening as you open the door to the dryer should be a sticker across the top groove
Very helpful, although a good detail to include would be to also unclip the wiring harness too before front panel removal (which there didn't seem to be a way around, at least with my dryer)
This completely identified the problem but for me at 0:52 the wire won’t come off and it is holding the front panel to the dryer and I don’t want to use pure force and break it any tips?

Hi! So glad you did it! Did you just buy a reg dryer belt? I don’t know if there’s specific kinds or dimensions.
Thank you for getting straight to the point; skipping all of the extra nothing saves people time.
Great video!!
Idk, I kinda miss the speech on the history of dryers and all. 😆
Amen!!
Exactly. Straight to the point is best.
Straight to the point and skipping the f****** ending which is the most important part!

How do you put the roller back into the slots?
Thank You, you saved me $$$ NOT having to buy a new dryer and also to NOT going to the laundry mat!! Whooo whooo my first real repair job!!
His instruction is as dry as the dryer, quick, simple and direct to the point.
Thank you so much for the quick and straightfoward explanation. My belt actually snapped but it shouldn't be too hard to find a replacement.
