    Frequently Asked Questions

    Frequently Asked Questions

    A humming motor with a stationary drum almost always means the drive belt has snapped. The motor runs but has no belt to turn the drum. Less commonly, the idler pulley has seized or the drum rollers are stuck. Our tech can usually replace the belt and get the dryer spinning again in under an hour.

    It's technically possible but requires disassembling the dryer cabinet and correctly routing the belt around the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley. If the belt broke because of a worn idler or roller, those should be replaced at the same time. Our techs replace all wear items together to avoid a repeat failure.

    A slow-turning drum points to a slipping belt, a worn motor pulley, or seized drum rollers creating friction. The motor has to work harder, which can lead to motor failure if left unaddressed. Our $59 diagnostic identifies the restriction and gives you a flat-rate quote.
