Hello Hannah &
Appliance Parts Pro,

I have a General Electric Dryer DDE7500 VAL WH with a serial number of 42288G.

The belt broke. In reviewing your site I cannot exactly match my model number to any of the choices you provide. Is my machine that old? I called in and spoke with Hannah F. She was very helpful!
Can you guide me please to the correct belt? I don’t want to depend on measuring the old belt, which snapped. I am not sure if there are fragments somewhere in the dryer.
Hannah said I might need to replace the drum bearing as well.
As I am looking at your diagrams and the back of my dryer they don’t match up.
Question: Is it possible that I don’t have a bearing on the back of my drum, but that the belt just wraps around the drum, the motor pulley and the tension pulley. I do see a wear mark on the drum, which lines up with the motor and tension pulleys. I am not sure if this mark is from rollers or the belt.

Thank you for your help.
