Single income family of 4 here. I can't thank you enough for taking the time to put this tutorial together. Not only did you save my dryer with this video but our bottomline as well, seeing as a repair or replacement would've put us in the red for sure.
And as a side note, it's a real confidence booster as a "homemaker" when you're able to fix things like this. Truly appreciate you as a person for taking the time to share your knowledge and skills
Thank you!! Husband was out of town when my dryer quit, I ordered from amazon got it 2 days later and in an hour up and running! Texted hubby that it was fixed "You fixed it??????" I am woman hear me roar!
Nice
Can you come fix mine?
How is that part called so i can order it
You go girl!
hubby proud taught u well
So my dryer just made a big thump noise and stopped turning. Your tutorial led me the exact problem, gave me part info.
This video could not possibly be any better than it is. Thank you for what you do
This saved my weekend! I had the same "thunk" and then it stopped. This video was the first result, and showed the exact same issue. My broken wheel was even in the same spot! $9.77 for the part on Amazon, shipped one-day delivery, and I was back in business the next day. Thank you so much!
Thank you Sir. I was afraid I was stuck buying a new dryer. Your instructions were spot on. God Bless!
Thank you for such a great video! Thankfully, my pulley assembly was not damaged. Following your easy instruction, I had the dryer back up and running within 20-mins. Thanks again.
Thank you so much. I was able to fix mine. it was the same problem. Cost me $12. You are the best!!
When I worked at the cotton mill, we always had bad bearings that needed replacing. But once you did that, those machines hummed, even though they were built in the 80s. I love replacing bearings. A little elbow grease and you're good to go!
No it’s even
I must have a newer model as the back hole is much smaller than the one in your video. None the less, I ordered the part and was somehow able to get it all done with my left hand, not an easy fix but it works! $10 fix vs spending hundreds or more on a new one.
I had my dryer thermostat replaced 14 months ago (my machine was 4 years old at the time...go figure) at a cost of $400. He could hear a grinding noise at the drum started turning and replaced this part as a courtesy. He indicated that those plastic parts just don't hold up. Now, the grinding is back again when the cycle starts. Thanks to your video we can replace it. I wish these were made of metal! Excellent video! Thanks!
I have a different model dryer but relatively the same concept. Much smaller area to work with compared to your model but with the help of your video I was able to feel inside and get the belt back on the pulley and re attach the spring and get it working again within 5 minutes. Thank you
What a user-friendly DIY video!!! My dryer doesn't match the model but your pacing and descriptions were spot on!
Can still probably try it out, I’d imagine the inside mechanics are similar.
Only hard/time consuming part will be figuring out the part number for the part that’s broken. A quick google search for the manual/parts diagram for your model, and I’m sure you could attempt a fix!
Man you totally saved my life tonight! My dryer drum was binding and while I was trying to coax the belt with the motor on, it came flying off the idle pulley. Without a service manual I was dumbfounded to figure out how to thread the belt back properly between motor spindle and idle pulley! Your video saved me an expensive house call for a Sanyo dryer they don't even make anymore! You rock, buddy!!
You are a savior, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. After hours of attemps, I finally got the belt back on the pulley. You are the best!
You are amazing! Thank you thank you thank you for this video! I was able to fix my dryer all by myself. Getting the rubber around that little piece bout broke me but I got it done 🙌🏽 I appreciate you so much
This video helped us with a dryer issue. It took some muscle but we got the belt back on and it works. Thank you for the video!
Saved me! Heard a bang while manually spinning the dryer. Of course wouldn’t start, opened up the back and noticed the loose belt but COULD NOT for the life of me find a diagram on how the good state should look like!
Life saver, mine was just belt off the pulley, 2 years old Samsung dryer , lightly used. Thanks for the great video
Thank you so much for making this video. All the other videos I watched on a loose belts wanted you to basically take your whole dryer off from the front. I had the exact same issue (except having to replace the part) as in the video and was able to fix the issue, using your video in about 30mins (because I also vacuumed a bunch of crap outta the dryer).
thank u! i had the same issue where dryer would start normally but when it's time to get my clothes out, they were wrinkled and not fully dry. found out the tumbler drum wasn't spinning and i was able to diagnose the issue because of your simple and easy to follow video! it ended up being the same isssue as the one you showed so i'm going to order the part now and get it fixed
Thank you! This is exactly what happened to my dryer! Now I can easily fix it thanks to you! You're the best!
Bless you for this sir. I can fix my dryer this Saturday.
Thanks for the video. As soon as i heard the click sound of the idle pulley on this video and having already seen that belt lose, i knew i had the same issue.
My dryer quit on me so i was about to drop 2k on a new set, then i decided to see if there was a fix and bang here i am, took me a few minutes to fix the issue thanks to your video. thank you now i have the extra cash for boat gas and fishing gear lol
A million thank yous for the Amazon link! I just fixed mine and the part was eligible for 2 day shipping!
I’m so grateful for you! I was able to fix my dryer and have a peace of mind again. Thank you for taking the time and make this video! You are a blessing! 😉😀
Man… the internet. I love it. Thank you very much good sir! I had the exact issue. Ordering replacement parts now!
Saved me a G brother. I was about to buy a new dryer when I saw this video and said "hmmm, lemme check see if the belt is loose like that." The rest is history. If you're ever in Toronto, beers on me lol
Thanks for the helpful video! After getting the part from the online overlord beginning with A, I had it installed in 20 mins!
Thank you for this video!!!! I have this exact dryer and the EXACT problem happened. I just need to get this part and put it on. I'll report back!
This was exactly what I needed! I will say, the part at 4:30 is a little confusing -- or at least it was for me. I thought I had to twist the line around the black motor wheel...but after looking at your after part just after that, its just pulling the belt to the motor and "looping" it around that without any twist motion. I think that was probably clear to a lot of people, but it did take me a few minutes to get it right. Either way, I really appreciate the video guide - saved me a lot of money!!
Thank you soooooo much, all the other help videos I found and with the symptoms my dryer was having, all signs pointed to the thermal fuse. When I got it opened up though, the belt was way loose. That's when I found this video. Question though, the grey tin plate you removed and where you stuck your arm through is not on my dryer. Same exact model# DV42H5200EW/A3. It is imprinting/stamped in the mold of the shell, you can see the shape of where the tin piece would be. Basically I only have the metal vent pipe size hole to get my arm through, hopefully I can do it one handed. Thanks again!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I was able to fix my family’s dryer thanks to you!🙏🙇🏻🙇🏻🙇🏻🙇🏻
Thank You for this video! Belt came off, put it back on pulley & away we go! Works like new again🤗 Easy peezy...took no more then 15min💪 Ladies you can do this too!
PERFECT QUICK AND TO THE POINT VIDEO
Thanks for making this. Saved me some money. Found part locally, so didn't have to wait for Amazon.
The drum on my dryer is hard hopefully is this same problem so we can follow your tips and fix it. Thank you for sharing your tips with us.
Thank you for making this video. I don't have the means for a new dryer just yet and this really saved me. You are amazing
This is an awesome UA-cam! It was exactly our problem and we would not have been able to fix it without this video.
There is 2 versions of that pulley available, one like you used with a bushing that is the same as the original or a second style that is a few dollars more that has ball bearings and I think will last a lot longer, also I suggest turning the spring around 90 degrees from the way you installed it, the lever action at the pivot point where the screw is is constantly moving and the way you have your spring it could possibly come off, just a suggestion for both of these items to make the repair more permanent, this not a hard repair but on a gas dryer like I have it is a bit more difficult because you have to be very gentle with the gas pipe.
Omg! Thank you so much!. I found the problem within 15 minutes. Ordered the part and it will be here tomorrow. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Thanks for your help - had the same problem - probably saved me hundreds in service fees
Thank you so much! I was able to repair my dryer myself for about $10!
Thank you so much for video everyone else was taking it completely apart this was detailed and great and saved me so much time. Really appreciate it ❤
Clear instructions and positive energy. Thanks 😊
thank you for posting this. same exact problem with our drier.
This tutorial saved us so much money, thank you!!!
Thanks so much for sharing this .. was able to follow your video and get my dryer repaired .... Just great! Thank You!!!!
Thank you - Saved me a service call. Luckily with mine, the belt had just come off the pulley when someone tried to manually turn the can from the front.
Thanks dude! Fixed mine for $8 with a new tensioner pulley.
Thank you señor for your great video…is giving me a good Idea about what is inside the dryer cause I never fix one before but I use to be really good at fixing stuff but unfortunately I suffered a stroke and now I can’t not even change a lightbulb… so hopefully with the help of my wife and son we will be able to fix it I hope is the same problem I will be the brain and they will be my arms and hands today is June the 13 th 2021 hopefully we will be able to fix it last night we all finish with the laundry so everything is cleaned and good for one more week…Gracias!!!😃
Very helpful!!!! Thank you for your expert advice and for posting this.
Ty so much!! I did it myself. While husband was at work.

This is far the easiest fix it video! All the others you have to take it all completely apart with a ton of screws and wires to manage.
Thank you!!!!! My belt was just not on anymore!
Very helpful your video, I was able to change the pulley by myself 👍🏻
Thanks for this video! The same part failed on my machine.

Awesome video! This is exactly what happened to my dryer. Just fixed it
Outstanding, this exact issue happened to mine, awesome find and video dude
Thank you so much your video was right on point and you save me hundreds of dollars
Hell yea. Thos was the exact problem I just had and got it fixed because of you. Thanks man!
This video was so helpful! Saved a lot of money, my spring was just off! Thank you!,,
Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial!
OK, looks like this is exactly what may have happened to my dryer,. I heard a big bang, and then immediately the drum stopped spinning. Going to look at it in the Morning. Wish me luck.
Thank you so much for this video, made fixing our dryer a breeze.
You can repair it this way, much less time consuming than tearing the dryer down from the front. However a bit of advice, lay a cloth down over the metal edges of the hole you are working through. Those metal edges are really sharp, trust me. I found out the hard way with several gashes on my forearms.
Thank you for this video it helped me fix the dryer.
Great Video Going to give it a try in the morning
THANK YOU, i thought my mom was going to kill me 🤣. Thankfully in my case it was the spring that let go so i just had to reattach it and then set up the belt again.
Thank you, this just happened and I’m ordering the part 🙏
Thanks for video, I have one question I opened top cover and found belt is tight and by hand it rotating in this condition WHAT is issue same pully or something else. Please reply
nice. 1) after you removed that exhaust tube, did you removed the rear panel? Seems like you had a lot of view and access from just the little area. 2) how did you know the belt serpentine like that?
Thank you so much!! Worked like a charm.
This was super helpful. Thank you very much
Yup this was my issue. Thank you for video!
blessings to all
worked for me aswell
id wear a long sleeve shirt and place a towel over the edge you squeeze your arms through.....very sharp.....sliced me a little
Thank you for posting this. It helped tremendously.
Thanks for the video sr. But I need your help I have the same dryer and for some reason its different model number and serial number will this same part fits on it. Thx
Great video, saved me a lot of money. Thank you for your video and help.
Thanks man. Same thing except the big thingy didn’t pop off. It was just the belt came off somehow. Anyways not the same motel but similar enough.
Thanks man I just fixed mine with this video 🤙❤️
Thank you!! Life saver 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
Great thank you cause I need my DRYER I LOVE IT SO MUCH 😂
I think our model is a little older. It does not have the access to the back through the vent... we took the front off and realized we would have to take the whole thing apart just to get it fixed. Would you have any suggestions as to repair it without having to take it all apart and save us $200 for a repair guy?
Thank you for your video, great effort. And saved us a bunch of $$. Extremely grateful.
Thank you sir, very helpful!
Thank you for posting! Just fixed mine.
This video was great. The belt and the pulley were fine, the spring became detached. However, after reassembly, there is no heat? Anyone know what that may have happened?
Great video! Fixed my dryer. Thank you
Nice work sir! Thanks for the helpful information 🤘
That was so helpful, God bless you 🙏
This was really helpful thank u
Saved me alot of money thanks 4 this
