Great Video
Thank you😊
Just finished the repair. Found about 20 dollars in change in there so I came out ahead!
Nice job Michael, you made a profit😊😂
Truly appreciate the time you took to show us common folk how to get her back up and running. Clothes pile up quickly in a living breathing household, Cheers!
You’re very welcome 😊👍
Thank you for the video! I was able to follow it step by step and change my drier belt! 🎉
Great job Mary😊👍❤️
I watched a view of these instructional videos. Yours is the best one! Thank you for that.Saved me $400 or so on a new dryer.
Awesome Claus😊
Thanks so much, worked like a charm. Videos like this save serious money. My dryer looks quite a bit newer than yours but thankfully whirlpool decided they only needed to upgrade the plastics on the exterior, interior was identical.
Thank you saved me a few hundred bucks
That’s what I love to hear 😊😊😊
Wow thanks for the great and helpful video. I just moved into my first house with my girlfriend and realized our dryer was broken before we washed our first load of clothes. Your video was a great help. Thank you
Awesome,
Thanks Trevor👍
thank you so much , I did all by myself. u save me new dryer.
Nice job Monica😊😊
Thanks for the video. I was able to replace the belt. I then found the flange on pulley arm of the motor had sheared off. I was able to get a new pulley and fix the dryer. (Impressed the wife and kids.) The belt cost $16 and the pulley $38. Beats paying for a new dryer. As a bonus, I found over $7 in change on the bottom of the dryer. Thanks again.
That is so impressive Tony😊👍
Nothing like impressing the wife and kids. I only found .35 cents.👍🇺🇸⚔️🇬🇪
Great video!!!
Helped me out big time!!
Thanks!!
Excellent,
Very happy to help👍😊
Complete lifesaver….I’ve been going to the laundromat for almost 2 months until I found your video. My belt had came off the pulley and now runs like new. Much appreciated and god bless.
You are very welcome😊👍
Thanks!
You are very welcome and thanks for your support 😊👍
Bang up job ! You da man. Thanks
Thanks so much Jeremy😊😊😊

You saved me so much $ . Thank you 🙏🏽
Awesome,
Thanks Marlon😊👍
The instructor in this video was excellent! I did exactly what he said and my dryer up and running again within 45 minutes. I don't believe that anybody could show you how to do the job better than he. He was very thorough and gave easy to understand instructions. One of the best teachers I have ever come across! Thank you so much!
Thank so much,
You are most kind😊😊
Thanks for the video
You’re welcome👍
Hey that's my dryer!
Star Date. Dec. 17th. 2022
The belt.. On my dryer.. Broke at 11 hundred Am.. Needless to say.. This video.. Saved me.. So.. Thank you.. very much..
Wanna Capt. Kirk.. Out...
Thanks so much 👍😊
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! 😘 Im a 54 y/o housewife and while my husband is hard at work driving a truck all day I figured I’d give it a go!! I followed your step by step instructions (turns out belt was broken), found the part # on the belt, ordered it from Amazon yesterday, received it today and went back to work on it. The hardest part was trying to hold the drum in place while hooking the bottom 😅 but I did it!! Yay!! My husband just walked in and I can’t wait to tell him! Thanks again Scott!!
Very impressive 😊😊😊
Awesome!!!!!
Good job. I admit that I was nervous until seeing this video.👍🇺🇸⚔️🇬🇪
I’m finally giving up on this dryer. I have replaced everything including motor and I’m back to square one. No spin and loud hum. So frustrating.
Hi Cesar,
Something got pulled down into the fan behind the motor and it won’t let it turn.
I just fixed my dryer after watching this video. Went to Lowe's and bought a 29" Universal belt for $10.00, saved myself from spending $400 on a new dryer! Great Video coverage! Thanks!
Wow,
Nice job Brad👍😊
Thank you soooo much!!! We saw our dryer was not turning and my fiance found your video as we were discussing how much it would be to call someone to repair. After a quick trip to lowes, he was able to repair in less than an hour! You are a LIFE SAVER! Liked and subscribed IMMEDIATELY.
Thanks so much ❤️😊👍
Much appreciated
You’re welcome😊 and
So helpful!! Thanks ❤
You’re very welcome 😊😊😊
Thank you so much! I was able to problem solve this by myself and in less than 30 minutes! I did feel so empowered and proud of myself. Appreciate you and your time spent on this!
Great job Lucy, so glad it helped 😊😊😊
Great video! My issue is a bit different, drum doesn't spin but makes a very loud grinding noise when on. Took it apart per your video and the belt and everything seemed to be in place. Drum would only spin counter clockwise by hand and would not go clockwise. Any ideas? Thanks!
Something got caught in your blower wheel.
You can take off the back panel to access it👍
@@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance I'll check that out. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much very helpful and very detailed on the step by step instructions and process
Glad it helped Carlos 👍😊
Thank you so much for posting this vid.
Our pleasure!😊👍
Proud dad moment, fixing our broken dryer for the first time. Thanks for the video, it had all of the information I needed to get the job done.
Glad it helped Mitch😊😊😊
my belt is still tight, doesnt look like it is damaged in any way, but my dryer still wont spin. will turn on like normal just wont spin. any suggestions?
Can you send that question to my email at: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com ?
Thanks to your info I was able to replace my belt today. $15 and I was done in very short order. Replacing the shocks on the washing machine tub took a little bit longer and was slightly more difficult, but finished that today as well...Should be good for several more years...
That is awesome, congratulations 😊👍
Thank you very helpful
My old Whirlpool (25 years old) has a separate piece below the large front piece above it. I can't get the large panel off so that I can get to the belt, the pulley and the motor. Is there a secret to getting my front panel off?
Can you send that question to my email at: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
Thanks, Scott. I sent an email to you with two photos of my dryer. Victor
Went to switch the laundry over at 3:45 am saw it was not spinning, watch this video and had it fixed in a few minutes. Thank you so much!!
That is excellent news😊
You’re a true American hero…this saved me so much frustration lol
That means a lot to me, thank you😊🇺🇸
Your videos rule extremely hard. Thanks!
Thanks so much😊👍
My model (LEQ8800JQ1) like some of the other people's here has no wheel as part of the idler pulley, just a smooth metal half ring as part of the pulley, but same general process as shown in video. Looking at the Whirlpool site the replacement part they offer is a bit different with a wheel. So, it looks like they have a wheel version that is interchangeable with the the non wheel original version.
This dryer is a beast and has lived through multiple washers over 16 years and finally just had that linguine sized belt break. $15 fix, much better than new $500 dryer.
Thanks for your well done video.
They are awesome dryers.
We’re on year 25👍
Thank you it’s been helpful
You're a life saver. My belt snapped last night when literally all of my pants had just been washed. Luckily Menards had the belt in stock so I bought one at 6am. Had the dryer back up and running by 6:30 and had dry pants in time for work!

Thanks so much for this video you was very helpful to me help me fix my dryer all by myself and trust me im no handy man
I love it 👍
Awesome video,worked perfectly on my dryer thank you!!!
Great to hear!👍😊
Just found you in my search since my dryer all of a sudden stopped spinning and watched your vid. You’re very explanatory and you showed all the pieces and how you put the belt back in. Am going to try to fix on my own. Thank you very much. 😊
Awesome,
Please let us know how it goes👍
How did it go? I got my dryer fixed by following his video. Very easy and straight to the point . Lifesaver.
Thanks for making this video. My dryer is spinning again!!!
I love it,
Thanks👍
Thank you very much, I was worried that I would have to buy a newish dryer and you saved me with this video.❤
You’re very welcome 😊
3 years after...that video gave me back my dryer!!!! + 8 guitar picks!!!
THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!
That is excellent 😊😊😊
Ok Captain, looks like motor Pulley is worn. Ordered new belt , both Motor and Idler pulleys. Drum wheels show no sign of wear. Bought it used over 12 years ago. hope to get 12 more.. It is an Inglis by Wirlpool. Let you know in a couple of days.
Thank you! I have a different model Whirlpool but it was exactly the same take down process. Unfortunately my belt broke. But still a cheap 10 minute fix. Saved hundreds in either repairs or a new dryer.
A metal paint scrapper was a great tip. Luckily I just finished some plaster work and knew exactly where it was!
Awesome job Eric😊👍
The feeling of relief finding this video was indescribable, knocked it out in no time, you are UA-cam guardian angel 😂
You’re so nice and you’re the best 😊😊😊
Well this is all my fault but might be nice to next time to remind people you might need more than a belt you might need that wheel because it’s all burnt up on the inside and my mom just in case you’re trying to fix it at 9:39 Lowe’s is closed and you know gotta wait till tomorrow sad for me she thought ahead with a girl Bucko it’s actually a very good video I kinda like it so good job but next time don’t forget the gravy that’s a line from a cartoony probably too young to remember forever saw someone out there is laughing
Thank you for this video, my wife heard a loud snapping sound while the dryer was working, this was exactly our problem the belt snapped.
Nicely done😊👍
Thanks for this video. You saved me some money!
That’s what I like to hear😊👍
Just fixed my dryer by myself! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the video! I fixed my dryer using your advice!
Thank you so much for posting these. I just replaced the belt on my dryer and it was EXACTLY like what was shown in the video. This saved me a lot of money.
Awesome News😊👍 Thank You
Best video of help on UA-cam for this kind of drier. It answered every question I had and showed things like how the tension arm was placed ... mine had fallen out and I had no idea how it was to be placed correctly. The front felt bearing was a PIA, but with a large flat head screwdriver and fingernails as a way to flatten it out a bit, I was able to get the felt INSIDE the drum. This is REALLY critical that it's put inside the drum correctly or you can damage the new belt. Thanks for such a helpful & descriptive video!
You are very welcome 😊😊😊
Thank you! Both the idler pulley and the belt were broken in my washer. But thanks to your video, I was able to install the new parts easily. The only thing I wish you had explained is that you have to press a tab in the lid switch to unplug it (I know it was already unplugged for you, but a brief explanation on where to press would have been useful; I had to look up a whole other video just for that information)
Glad it helped
Great video. Thank you. Very helpful. The rotation check was an excellent tip, saved me from a possible rework. I was surprised to find I had no screws holding my front panel on.
I’ve seen that also, where it’s only held on from the top panel clips.
Thank you so much for this helpful video. I'm not handy so when I pulled this off (thanks to you) it was a small but tremendous feeling of personal accomplishment for me. Really appreciate this - will watch other videos of yours more proactively now that I know you're here. Keep up the good work
Thanks James,
That means a lot to me😊😊😊
Hi I need to order a part but I don’t know what it’s called can you help me, the thingy snapped in half so we can’t put it on the pulley
I think it’s the idler wheel👍
Thanks for this video, you showed me how it's done and I appreciate your time to showcase your skills and helped me polish mine. Big up to you.
Thanks so much Matthew👍😊
Thanks! Only thing to be aware of, depending on your model, the notch where the idle arm goes may be different than the video as it was for me.
Also pro-tip, Lowes sells replacement belts.
Thanks so much Ben😊
EDIT UPDATE: Today me and my nephew got the dryer fixed. The belt came in today at Lowes and we got it fixed. Who knows what a repair man would have charged if we would of had to have a repair man come out. we wouldn't have been able to fix such a simple problem without having watched this. Thank YOU So Much for this video. ❗💯So far we got the front end of and found that the belt is broken. I think ours might be slightly new model as the order number was on a different sticker on the side up front. When we get another belt for it hopefully putting it on wont be as hard as it looks. It looks like wrapping it around the pulley takes a little bit of work for those unfamiliar or new to this. Will let you know when I get the part hopefully I am able to get it on myself. At least this told me exactly what was wrong and I now know how to take the top and front end off and what it what happened.
Please let me know if you need any help👍
@@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance Me and my nephew just got the dryer fixed. Thank You So Much. I updated my original comment here so others will see. Your video really is great advice❗💯
Good video! Don't know whether my dryer is older or newer, but instead of a wheel on the idler, it has a half circle that the belt glides on. But my repair was the same! Thanks.
I’m so glad it worked 😊
Great video! I have a similar Whirlpool dryer, and all it was - the dang belt slipped off that tension pulley, and the pulley was way on the other side of the dryer. Thank you!
Nice job Thomas👍
Thank you so much. I have an exact model and l just discovered it is not spinning. Gonna fox it myself and save a fistful of dollars!!!!
I love it Richard, please let us know how it goes👍
Thanks for the video. I was able to replace the belt and pulley. And I found close to $3 in change.
Nice work!😊👍
Great video, helped me out a lot. My idler wheel has no wheel lol but still managed to work fine. Thanks brotha.
Glad it helped
What a satisfying feeling when you fix an appliance yourself!
Ooh, you speak the Truth Clint😊😊😊
Huge thanks. I’m not Mr. Fix it by any means. So when our dryer stopped spinning I went straight to this video. Pulley came off just like in this one. Fixed it in minutes. And now if the belt breaks I can do that too. Awesome!!! Thank you so much.
Nicely done James 😊👍
Thank You!!! Followed your video and fixed it like a pro!!
Great job Karen😊
Thank you. Worked like a charm
You’re welcome 😊
I replaced the belt and all worked for a couple weeks but now it won’t spin again and the belt is in tact
Any ideas?
Can you send that same question to my email at: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
This was a very helpful video. My drum stopped turning and the belt was intact, but has some long slivers, frayed parts. I suspect one caused the problem.
Q: how do I order the correct belt? I see they come in several sizes. Google search sucks for specific models because it returns ads and close matches. I’d like to see “model number=XX inches.” Like an auto parts store. Not sure why that’s so hard to find.
Can you send that same question to my email: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
@@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance I bought a belt based on the outer dimensions of the dryer. I haven’t tried to install it yet as the other belt is still holding up.
Having a hard time taking out the connection for the door switch 😔
Try to pry a small flathead screwdriver in between the 2 sections.
The video is excellent to explant and helpful. Thank you so much
Thanks Mike,
I’m glad it helped 😊
Thank you. Liked and sub'd because your info is going to save me!
You’re very welcome 😊
You just saved me $300 from a local repairman. Amazing. THANK YOU!
Excellent! Thanks Brandon😊😊
Thank you so much for this video
I am a 62 year old Nana and thanks to your video I surprised my husband (saving us 500. or more) and fixed our dryer all by myself🤗
I could have used his help to get the front panel back on but wanted to surprise him
Thanks again
That is so impressive😊👍
Quick question, thank you for the video by the way. So the thing that holds my belt, that round little metal is broken. Is there a fix to this? Or I need a new machine
Can you send me a picture of that part to: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
Can you send a picture of that to me at: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
Thank you for this! I was able to fix my drier in about 20 minutes for $10 because of your video!
Awesome, thank you 👍
Thank you so much. You detailed video helps me fixed mine
That’s great to hear👍
Perfect, exactly what I needed. Thank you.
So glad it helped 😊😊😊
Thanks
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you for this video! I got my dryer fixed 😊
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you! Belt came off as I rotated the tumbler by hand after emptying dryer, and this video helped me put it back together. Awesome. Very helpful.
Awesome,
Thanks Alex👍
very good video easy peasy!
Glad you liked it!
This worked. I know youtube doesn't always send notifications. But as an update spent 16 bucks got a new belt. I don't know how much money i just saved by doing this very easy job, but Thank you for this video!❗, I'm sure I would have had to pay a lot more than that if I had a repair men come out to my house for this; Plus I feel a sense of accomplishment getting this done with the help of my nephew. it's easier when someone holds the drum in place while the other gets the belt on.💯
thanks for the video had a stuck sock lmao but i fixed it

Dryer stopped tumbling. Watched video. Went to Lowes and got a new belt. Presto, back in business in no time! Never thought I would do this, and was so easy! Gracias!
I love it😊😊😊
Thank you! Found this video and 15 mins later was ordering a belt to replace the broken one (actually just ordered the kit). Different model, same layout. Also beware of the very sharp metal of the back side of the front panel!
Thanks Matthew 😊
Very helpful video! 1/21/24 I just watched this video and fixed my dryer in less than an hour. Saved me at least $100. Thank you!!
Thanks so much 😊
Thanks for the help on your video. This was exactly what happened to my dryer -- the only difference is I had an idle slider instead of an idle pulley, but the fix was the same. Easy project with a screwdriver and a socket wrench.
Thanks so much Scott😊
Thanks for the very good tutorial. My belt broke, bought a belt for $15 and the rest is history and back to drying the clothes. Ya made me feel smart Brother. I was also able to slay the fuzz dragon that was growing under the tub. 👍🇺🇸⚔️🇬🇪
Nice work!😊
What if that band is missing ? Does that mean it tore ?
Can you send a picture of that to me at: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
🎉Dryer wasn’t spinning. Watched your tutorial, went to the home improvement store and had to buy two different size rubber bands since we couldn’t find the size listed by whirlpool. Came home, made it into a family affair, teenage son, husband and I replaced the rubber drum band within 10 minutes and we cleaned all the lint that collected underneath the drum. Been over a month and the dryer works perfectly. Thank you!

Awesome,
So glad it worked👍
