Beko tumble dryer
Fault
The dryer hummed when started, but the drum would not move.
- Assessment
- The belt was intact and the drum and motor were free to turn. Testing identified a failed motor capacitor.
- Work
- We fitted a capacitor matched to the motor’s specification, secured it and reassembled the dryer.
- Parts
- Motor capacitor.
Checks and outcome
Repeated starts with a test load confirmed that the drum started unaided each time, without humming, stalling or unusual noise.
