NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
6 years later. Thanks Bill.
How we get the dryer to this point
I got the belt off before I could see how it was routed around idler pulley, motor pulley and drum. Belt wasn't broken but the idler was screaming! Didn't have a clue how to install the new one until you showed how to route the belt around the "invisible" drum and pull the idler pulley up. That demonstration made the job oh so easy. Thanks alot. Great video!
Great video. None of the BS music and stuff other videos often have. Yours is nice, concise and to the point. Thanks.
My dryer broke 2 years ago and then broke again recently. Thanks for keeping this video on! It is the best one and made it possible for me to resurrect my Kenmore dryer twice!
Excellent! Thank you for these videos. Thorough, but nothing extraneous, well lit, and well edited. My old and well cared for 90 series dryer stopped heating and thanks to you and a multimeter, I isolated the problem to the heating element and it's now replaced and I'm putting everything back together. Just had to watch how to reinstall the drum. Thank you so much. I do not want to buy any of today's washers and dryers.
Thanks Bill. Great teacher. Rest in peace 🙏🏻
THIS was the video!!! Better than 3 others for instruction and photography...Finally was successful in replacing the belt!!!
Thank you. Am saving your video, my 60 year old brother would not watch it however, but I did. And he has been down in my basement for over four in half hours trying to still figure out how to replace my dryer belt. God have mercy.
OMG! You are a lifesaver. I'm a single mom with 3 kids. I do most of the simple repairs on my home and appliances (some not so simple). Anywhere I can save some $ by not hiring someone is a huge deal. Plus, I make my teens help so they learn, too. Thank you!!
I cant thank you enough for this and the Kenmore breakdown video. You saved me money I don't have. For this I am grateful. God Bless!!
Dude, I`ve watched quite a few of these videos that are made by professionals and not one explained and showed clearly how to put the belt back to the pulley and stuff. Just you. Great job man!
We never would have figured this out--watched how you looped the belt a couple times, practiced without the drum and then and got it on the first try! My model (Kenmore elite--an old one) did not have enough clearance on the sides to reach around ... but there was a knock-out panel on the side for access (in case anyone else has that issue). Saved us a ton of time, frustration and money, of course! Thanks so much!!
Did not have a broken belt, but needed help re-installing the belt. Very helpful video. My clothes were not tumbling, but a thorough cleaning seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks for the help.
Hey Bill, you just saved my bacon, followed your directions and my dryer is as good as new! Thanks for everything
We watched your video and because you were so clear in your instructions, changing our dryer belt was a BREEZE. Thank you so much for your help!
I was today years old when l learned about Bill. RIP bro, you really helped me out today Sat March 18 2023. ❤
Wow man, exactly what I needed to see. Mine quit spinning about 30 minutes ago and thanks to your generosity, I know what I am dealing with. And the flat black on your bike looks fantastic. Great choice. Again, thanks for your help with the dryer.
Thank you!! This is my fourth time changing a dryer belt but without this video and the one showing how to take the cabinet apart I could not have done this. All of the dryers have been Kenmores but this one is quite different in design than the others. Threading the belt blind was to say the least an interesting experience. I will NEVER again put a wet sneaker in the dryer. I padded everything and I thought it would be okay. It broke the belt. By the way I am 73 years old and have had back surgery so if I could do this anyone can. Thanks again for the help.
Thanks man. I have never attempted this because it seemed overwhelming. But I watched your videos and got it done in around a half hour. Thanks again
Dude, you are the best. I m completely grateful for your video. I was searching high and low for the drum belt installation procedure that works best, and your method was simply the best. Thank god for people like you👏
Thanks for the great video! It helped me change the dryer belt in under an hour and I’ve never done appliance repair in the past. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Bill for creating this video, very easy to follow, great explanation on how the belt pulley system is supposed to work!
I was able to get the belt back on pretty easily thanks to your video. You're a lifesaver! Thank you!!
Thanks so much for showing it without the drum in!! gives you a much better understanding of how it hooks in!!
Bill - It worked. Thanks a bunch. If everyone in here that just saved $150.00 send you $10.00, you'd be selling that Honda for a Harley! Let me start by sending my 10 bucks. Just tell me where. Again, thanks Man!
Bill I can't thank you enough for making this video ! You've made a potential nightmare a piece of cake ! Thanks man !!
This and another one of your videos were life savers. My dryer stopped heating on Sunday evening and after a couple of hours I had it back up and running. Thanks!
Thank you for this video! Just changed my broken belt and didn't have to buy a new dryer. Hope to get another 20 years out of this one.
Just replaced my belt, best tutorial video ever. Going toiss you our friend.
Thanks for the video! Just replaced the belt on my Kenmore 970 dryer - $15 instead of a whole new dryer. Can't beat that.
Just an FYI for those with the same dryer as me: the drum in the 970 doesn't sit on / have rollers but instead a single ball coming off the center of the rear of the drum and you have to give it a good tug UP and the ball will pop out of its seating. And just reverse to replace, a firm push down at the rear. This had me confused because i thought the drum would just slide out.
Also, there is a removable panel to access the pulley / tensioner... which made it a whole lot simpler once the drum was back in place.
Again... thanks so much for the video. Huge help!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. My dryer is a newer model kenmore but the mechanics seemed the same. my belt didn't break but came off track so I did exactly what this video told me to do and it worked. again thanks and God bless! :)
Thanks Bill, I appreciate you for assisting us novice in appliance repair, This video saved me a lot of money and helped me flex my fix it muscles. Thanks again.
Thank you so much. Your teaching is excellent!! I just couldn't figure that belt thing out. Blessings to you for all you help.
thanks for this - replaced my belt today - this made it very easy
Really appreciate this video! Very helpful and saved me buying a new dryer!
By far the best "how to" vid ever.. wish they were all like this.. Thank You!
I just replaced my belt while watching your video. Thank you
Thank you for your help. Just replaced the broken belt in my dryer with your help.
Thank you so much for taking the time to show information of the trade. I am just starting to learn the trade and your videos are very valuable to me or anyone who wants to fix things around the house. Well down.
Bill, great job on this video showing how to replace the belt. Very clear. Saved me a lot of money. Thanks!
This video helped me reconnect the drum belt properly. Others gave a quick word or two, but did not help you actually do it ab;y seeing it. done. !this one removed the other equipment and let you actually see the action needed11 Jim Vornberg
Bill, nice video. Your heads up hints were very helpful. I hate it when these things fail but as I fairly handy person I love to fix these things. Thanks again.
Wife decided to wash my ounce of gold in the vile. Of course it didn't like it. Spent the better part of the day crying before I dismantled the dryer and hitting it with the vacuum. Thanks for the video and the directions to get that belt back on. By far the best I've seen.
Mike Laine Nothing like gold digging in the dryer!
THANK YOU. Got it back up and running after seeing this video.
Thanks. I like how you showed the external view - groping blindly to connect the belt - followed by the open view (without the drum in place) so we could see the geometry. A good mix.
I FIXED IT!! The wife is very happy!!
This was an entirely thorough video. Without it, I'm not sure I would have been able to get the belt on. With it, it only took me about 3 tries! haha - thanks again, you are a very kind sole and I really appreciate your time and thoughts. Best wishes - gti6cyl (Lexington, MA USA)
Thank you so much for this video! If it wasnt for this video and the one about taking it apart I would have never been able to replace the belt!! By the way I did it all by myself!! Thank you again!!
7 years later and it still helps buddy thanks
good job on the video! This model makes it a lot easier to work on ,the air flow box holds the drum up for you. I had a wirlpool where the drum needed a crutch or an extra set of hands, very frustrating for an every once in a while repair. after having belt and pulley issues on separate occasions, I was on a mission to make this easier and decided cut a 1x1 ft sq port hole by the motor transforming the cutout to a removable door. Later on I ran across a machine that had this factory feature.
+A Lewis They don't always make it easy for the repair man. We should be designing the appliances! lol Thanks for Watching!
Very helpful to show it without the drum. When trying to change belts on cars...The gear diagrams for belts in cars are so confusing for me. Much better just seeing it the way you showed it
Thanks for the simple explanation of changing the belt
you just saved me 600 bucks on a new dryer....thank you soooo much
Your video is great! It really helped me in making the belt repair on my Kennmore dryer 👍😊
We just finished replacing the belt on our Kenmore dryer. Your video was the key to getting the belt around the idler pulley correctly. The toughest part was getting the drum reinstalled after the belt was replaced. We found that tipping the entire machine back to about a 45 degree angle allowed us to get all the parts lined up before securing all the screws. The price of the new belt was $30 and it took us about two hours. The cost of a service call would have been much,much more! Thank you.
Thanks bro. had to watch it twice for the belt/pulley alignment. Ride on!
Thank you so much for this very helpful video. Not only did you help me figure out what the issue was quickly but it helped me fix it as well. All for under $15 Thank you.
Moxiepup Awesome!
Bill, thank you very much for the video.
My dryer is running as I type this.
Short and sweet thanks from NYC.
Infinite THANK YOUs for this video.
Thank you for doing this video. My dryer is the exact same model. This was a big help!
Wow, thanks. I would not have thought to arrange the belt like that when putting it back on. I was trying to figure out why it was so loose. I could't see it when I took it off.
Vous êtes un super professeur. Merci grâce à vous j'ai réparé ma sécheuse. Thank you very much for your video.
I got mine apart, went got the belt, so hopefully I can get it back together, thanks for the video, big help.
Great Video, I was able to replace my belt on my Kenmore 90 series Gas dryer.
great video, thanks! I never would have figured it out without it.
Thank you so much Bill, that was more than helpful, that was essential !!
Wow dude you just saved me a ton of money!!!! Thank you!! Great video!! Very detailed and good video quality!! My fix worked perfect!!!
I love how detailed u were. Nice job on the video. It was really helpful.
i have a bad right shoulder and can't reach around. the last one i put on 4 months ago chewed up and broke. controlling the idler arm is a problem for me so i'm gonna drill a hole in the side of the dryer so i can put a line on the pulley arm. my wife can relese it while i guide the belt. great very specific video, thanks.
You are the man now I think I can fix my dryer thanks and nice bike!
