How to change a dryer belt

Man fixing dryer belt

Knowing how to change a dryer belt is essential for your tumble dryer's performance. The belt in your dryer wraps around the drum and then over the motor. If your dryer drum isn't spinning, properly, or at all, it’s likely there’s an issue with the drive belt. Similarly, if your dryer makes a banging noise, the dryer belt may need replacing. 

Whatever the reason your tumble dryer is failing to work, changing the dryer belt is a quick and simple job that you can do yourself at home. Of course, consult a professional if you’d prefer, but with some basic tools and a straightforward step-by-step, your dryer will be back to drying your laundry in no time.
