Dryer - Drum Does Not Turn

To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the power supply before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.

If the dryer drum is not tumbling / turning on your dryer, the following tips may help you resolve the concern without the need for repair service.

Diagnosing a Dryer Drum That Does Not Turn

• Make sure the dryer is not overloaded. A load of heavy, wet clothes, such as towels or blue jeans, may cause the drive belt to slip. Remove some of the clothing and try again.
• Make sure the drum does not turn freely (turns counter-clockwise during operation). If it does, the belt may be broken or loose and service will be required.

Repair Service Recommended

Should the tips provided above not resolve a concern with the dryer, service is recommended. For service, please schedule a repair appointment with Bodewell.
