Couldn't have been easier! New belt came with complete instructions for the DIY repair. I actually did the repair myself while my husband worked elsewhere in the house. Opened top and front of dryer with a screwdriver, removed drum, replaced belt, then put it back together! Very simple and easy repair... saved me the repairman cost.

Remove the lint screen from the top of the dryer, then remove the two philips head screws holding the lint screen channel on the dryer top. Use a large flat screwdriver to to pry up the from edge of the top of the dryer... this releases two clips just inside the top to edges of the dryer top from the dryer front. Lift the dryer top and support it back away from the front. Separate the wiring connector at the top right front for the door sensor. Use a nut driver to remove the top screws on the left and right just inside the top of the dryer. With these two screws out, lift up on the from of the dryer and remove it, setting it aside. Support the from of the drum from falling forward. The broken belt is then removed. Install the new belt using the instructions that come with it, paying close attention to the belt tensioner orientation.

My dryer belt was busted so all I had to do was enter the part number on the old belt and PartSelect suggested the belt to order since the old one was not in circulation anymore. The instructions were easy to understand, but getting the dryer belt on and around the pulley was a bit tricky. Thanks PartSelect, I only had to pay $12 to fix my dryer instead of having to pay someone else about $50.

I followed the instructions in your video, just be careful

with the sharp edges when installing belt..Very easy to

install....Thanks

Repair was easy popped the top off and removed the front then the drum route belt around drum motor and idler pulley and reassemble

Use putty knife to release top catches and lift top. remove 2 screws holding front panel and remove panel. Slide drum slightly forward to get new belt around drum, reseat drum and set tensioner against belt. Replace front panel. Close top. Done.

Watched a video by parts select and followed the easy instructions to install the belt.very easy

The on line video instruction clip was a very valuable aid. Following those directions made the job quite simple. The printed directions that came with the part were not much help. The most difficult part was putting the belt around the idler and motor pulley. An extra set of hands made the job much easier. Time required was around a half hour.

Pretty easy job, removed the two screws that held the lint catcher at the top of the dryer. I then used a butter knife to pop the two front corners on the dryer. Basically slid the butter knife in the front of the dryer and then slid it towards a corner until it would not move anymore and gave it a slight twist to pop it out., rinse and repeat for other side.

Make sure to get a block to hold up the dryer tub about 6-8 high(I used a batter pack)

From there used a socket set to remove the two top screws from the front of the dryer and then gently lift front panel up and back to remove.

Place block to hold up the dryer tub, if you have a broken belt you should find it at the bottom. remove old belt do not be afraid if you find the pulley lying on the floor. Clean out the bottom of the dryer, install the new belt and use the digrams provided by this website to correctly install the pulley and then put everything back together.

It was alot easier then I thought.

my husband did it with no problem

put new belt on...

Instant repairman suggested the problem and I'd ordered the parts that was suggested thru part select and shipping was fast! I don't have any knowledge repairing appliances, but through partselect made it easy for me. I went online through youtube to see and to have some idea how to fix the problem. It was shown to me step by step and the safety procedure how to fix the problem. The video that was shown to me was a whirlpool older model but the diagram are similar. Able to fix my dryer in less than 30 minutes and it's working fine now and saves me a couple hundred dollars. Thanks partselect! I am one of your very satisfied customer and will do business in the future again.

PartSelect makes it easy. Easy to find your part, easy to order, and quick delivery. We were up and running in record time.
