Replace BROKEN DRYER BELT Fast & Easy!

[@sheriebarnes-r6w]

Your video saved me a LOT of wasted effort and time along with $$$. Great job! Thanks😊

[@HandymanHertz]

Love to hear it! You’re welcome!

[@byersjaxon]

A huge thank you for getting a shot of how the belt loops through, from the camera inside the dryer. That view made all the difference. I really appreciate the video. I fixed my dryer for $10 by purchasing the belt on Amazon.

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad I could help! You’re welcome!

[@JackKirbyFan]

I really appreciate this. So many videos waste ten minutes with intros, etc and I just want to scream since by then, I'm covered in sweat after replacing parts. You get to the point. Every time I service that damned dryer I forget how the belt goes back on the motor. Thank you, thank you. And yes, I liked!

[@HandymanHertz]

Thanks for watching. I try to keep my intros under 15 seconds (usually 8-10) glad you got it fixed.

[@RobFacciolo]

Quickest to the point video. Saved me time and money for sure, really apprecaite the inside view as that was most clutch. Thanks

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad you liked it! I’m not big on wasting peoples time 👌

[@kylenayder2645]

The pulley trick was immensely helpful thank you!

[@izdats0]

Saved me getting rid of our dryer and buying a new set. Best video I've seen amd this model is almost exactly like mine. Loved the tips, too!

[@HandymanHertz]

Great, glad you got some help from it!

[@bryanbonanno2196]

Great video, to the point, with clear camera views, and a nice dose of humor thrown in! I’m buying one of those quick sockets too!!!

[@HandymanHertz]

Thanks, I really appreciate that!

[@DougMartin-y4z]

My dryer was making a horrible squealing noise, so thanks to your video, I was able to disassemble it. I replaced the belt, idler pulley, and guide rollers, all purchased from Amazon for about $25. Just to pass along a handy hint: my replacement idler pulley had a 3/8” square hole for which I used a ratchet to position the pulley to put the belt on. It made it a lot easier rather than positioning the pulley by reaching in my hand.

[@drewwilson7401]

Thanks brother. Saved me so much time and money to replace a broken belt. Appreciate you. 👊🏾

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad I could help! 👍

[@nurseratchet2634]

Great video, fixed my parent’s 2007 dryer with your help. I’m only 5’5”, with short arms, lol, so I find it helpful to put the belt on the pulley etc with the front door off. It allows me to get a little closer, and more room for my arms. I hold up the drum with my forearms as I’m reaching in. It also makes it easier for me to pull that pulley mechanism to the left. When the belt is on I just make sure the drum is on the back rollers, and spin the drum to test it, then I put the front door on, and spin the drum again to check the front rollers. Hope this helps some other short armed woman. 😊

[@HandymanHertz]

Thanks for the tip!

[@DS-li7go]

Thank you so much! I had squealing in my dryer. Got the grease on and then had the hardest time trying to figure out how the belt goes on. Total was on the struggle bus. 😅 Thanks! Btw-this applied for a completely different brand and model!

[@chaosryans]

I was trying to figure out why the belt was so loose and just had to pull the belt back onto the tensioner, but the steps were helpful so i could check

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad to help!

[@realtalk1405]

Thanks man! Helped me alot. I'm a handy man around the house but it's the 1st dryer I've had to fix. So I'm thankful

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad you got it fixed! Dryers are pretty simple in a complex world

[@richardgalvan666]

Thanks!

[@HandymanHertz]

Wow, Thank you for the tip! You're welcome. Thanks for watching 👍🏼

[@naugerdogger3778]

Dude. Thank you so much, I have almost the exact same model, I don’t know what I would’ve done without this video

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching

[@stephenkillin9730]

​@HandymanHertz same here, Thanks!!!

Ribs down. 🤜🏽🤛🏽 Crucial 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@HandymanHertz]

Thanks!

[@Lguidotti]

THE CAMERA VIEW!!!! Game changer. Thank you so much for this video. I've been losing my mind because every video is the mirror image of my dryer and it's a complete mind warp when you're trying to blindly install. Also interesting that you reinstalled the front before reattaching the belt. I installed the belt first and then tried to attach the front and the drum isn't moving so obviously the alignment is off. I look forward to taking this approach when I go back to try again!

[@BobHerres]

💗 I'm currently replacing the rollers in my dryer, as life is busy, tomorrow, I'm going to complete the task -reinstall the drum, and, install a new belt... While I did try to snap a few pics... I really, & truly, couldn't get my head around "the actual configuration, of "how the original belt was installed!""??? **Your inside camera is totally phenomenal..** I've seen video of a GoPro Camera, mounted inside an inflated car tire, as it drives over a nail... Your video supersedes all that. Thank you so much! From: A new subscriber! * With the Notification Bell turned: "ON" 🙂

[@HandymanHertz]

Oh wow, Thank you very much! Just your comment alone was worth the effort! I was scratching my head too, trying to get my brain wrapped around the configuration.

[@Mutedimagery]

Video saving me right now! Had to replace the heating element 2 weeks ago and then the belt broke yesterday!

[@HandymanHertz]

With those fixed, you should be having that thing humming for many years I hope 👍🏼

[@esthervigil9151]

Thank you so much - just what we needed to fix our dryer!

[@HandymanHertz]

Alright! Glad to help!

[@fallonlk123]

Excellent view on the belt/pulley install….would never have figured that out!!!!! Thank you😜

[@HandymanHertz]

You're welcome! Glad the effort was appreciated 👍🏼

[@hardrockerguy4048]

you live in Wisconsin I'd pay you if you fix my dryer belt

[@daddypop4299]

Thank god for giving you the time and ability to do this work to show us all this god bless

[@axetheartist6296]

You saved my butt!! I couldn't figure out how to put the pulley on the belt for two days!!

[@HandymanHertz]

Yeah. I couldn't either, which is why I made this video!

[@verronefamily]

Great video. Thank you, was able to do on my own.

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad it helped, thanks for watching

[@DjSmoothNY]

Just finished changing mine. It was a cool project to do.

[@HandymanHertz]

Yeah, it's rewarding 👍🏼

[@DjSmoothNY]

Yes it is and saves a bunch 😃

[@bladimirmartinez6693]

Second time replacing this dang belt this time I noticed I wasn’t placing the belt correctly. Thank you very helpful

[@HandymanHertz]

Great, glad you got it working good this time?

[@sXeMartyr]

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I clicked subscribed❤

[@MichiganRoots]

Your video saved me! I generally don’t attempt these things as I get too freaked out that I’ll break things worse and never get it back together. After watching your video with the step by step, and that magnificent camera angle, I replaced the belt!! Not easy to get my arms in there and do it mostly blind, but it worked after a few tries. Thank you!!

[@HandymanHertz]

Alright, great job! Now you have a boost of confidence for the next, harder diy task 👍🏼

[@adamporter1680]

Fantastic! Thanks again!

[@HandymanHertz]

The only video you need. 👍

[@jeffhertz2690]

Another great video!

[@HandymanHertz]

Thank you for watching! 👍🏼

[@dstyodi]

Thank you. I was about to give up and just purchase a new dryer. This video helped me immensely 😊

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad I could help you save money!

[@needthecoast]

Great video! Thanks🎉

[@HandymanHertz]

Thanks for watching!

[@fitomagana520]

@handymanhertz great video it helped me on changing that belt easy like a few weeks ago but now the same dryer is not heating up to dry my clothes properly any advice

[@HandymanHertz]

It could be a few things, but I wonder if your heating element needs replaced? I had to do mine a couple years ago.

[@fitomagana520]

@@HandymanHertz it still runs but not heating up can I find the heating element on Amazon for the same dryer?

[@jazlynnviolet4594]

Thank you!!

[@sikNtwistd47]

Made me laugh about the "if this doesn't motivate you to move your little finger".. great video thanks. Doing this today with my dryer.

[@HandymanHertz]

Glad that got a chuckle from ya! Good luck with your dryer!

[@sikNtwistd47]

​@HandymanHertz the break down was fine, got to leave it apart till tomorrow though. Needs a 93.5 inch belt instead of the 92 1/4.

[@akakaptin6382]

Ok I’m not going to lie that’s a nice bit set I own one had to return one too because the bits got loose on the shaft , too be honest it’s daily useless unless you don’t have tools to begin with lol

[@akakaptin6382]

Malco makes a set that I prefer in my opinion. 😅 no hate here

[@HandymanHertz]

Interesting, i'll have to look at it next time I'm in Menards… They carry Malco products. 👍🏼 I'm always looking for the best tools.

[@pattygirl6372]

Are the belts universal? Does it have to be specific to the model? Trying to get mines repaired but being told the belt is " out of stock".

[@HandymanHertz]

I doubt they are universal as every model has a different configuration. I'd find one Amazon if I were you, I'm sure there's a dozen of off brands. I have a video on how to find the correct part number if you need.

[@pattygirl6372]

@HandymanHertz That video would be great! I've been checking Amazon, and there are many, just not sure which to buy. Thank you.

[@HandymanHertz]

[@ryanslats6764]

I was quoted $390 for dryer pulley and belt and start button. He stated thats the price of material only No labor parts sell on Amazon for $25. Damn thief.

[@HandymanHertz]

Wow! That's robbery

[@blkwng81]

What's robbery is $1200 for front brake pads and rotors on my truck

Not sure about "Most"... but true, a lot aren't.

Shameless branding.
