Hotpoint tumble dryer
Fault
The dryer motor ran, but the drum did not turn.
- Assessment
- Inspection found a broken drive belt. The drum and motor pulley turned freely, with no obstruction to damage a replacement.
- Work
- We fitted the correct stretch belt, cleared accumulated fluff and reassembled the dryer.
- Parts
- Model-matched stretch drive belt.
Checks and outcome
After a hand-turning check of the belt seating, a test load confirmed that the drum started and kept turning without slipping or abnormal noise.
