Your belt assessment sounds correct on the dryer problem.
If you can, restore the lid switch connections, and operate the switch during what should be spin. You should be able to hear a relay or solenoid clicking off and on with the switch.

does dryer heats up if yes take hose out from back of your dryer run dryer if you have good power air coming out from your dryer i think your dryer is fine you need to clean your air vent. system.

You found a belt? Most w/p washer do not have a belt they are direct drive. take off the pump and motor to replace the motor coupling, 2 plastic pieces w/ a rubber in between

The way most domestic clothes dryers are made, it's usually hard to determine that the heating part works without the drum turning.

But, chances are, the drum belt is broken.

Please give the specific model number of your unit for a more complete response.

If you are handy with tools, try to remove the back panel and feel the belt that should surround the drum. If access is that limited, try to turn the dryer on its side and you can get to the motor from the bottom. But like the guy said before, call a pro if you can't do any of this.

Welcome to our site.

You siad, the dryer is not spinning.


Can you hear the motor?
If you can not hear it then not your door switch or the main fuse inside the dryer is bad.
You pop the top and you will see both the belt and the fuse.


Let me know how you are.
