The dryer drum doesn't turn, but sounds like it's on.. and heats up inside. Is this a belt issue ? Where's a good place to find those? Thanks
Worth replacing?

If the motor is running but the drum does not turn, then the problem is a broken belt. It's pretty simple repair and is definitely worth to fix. You can order the belt by clicking on the part number or the picture bellow.

Gene.
P.S. It is a good time to clean the dryer inside and check the drum support rollers and the idler pulley.

Hey, thanks for the info! I was able to find a belt locally, since I needed to get it done ASAP before my new renter moves in. Also, I found a great video on youtube showing how to do the whole thing. The internet is great! Cheers!
