My Estate gas dryer will not tumble. What should I look for to repair? Model number is TGDS740PQ1

It sounds like your drive belt might be broken you can get a new one if you go to www.repairclinic.com enter in your model number and it should cost around 9$ the other possibility is the tension pulley or if it doesn't sound like your motor is running but most likely the drive belt .

From what you are stating either the belt has broken or the motor quit working. Only way to tell is take dryer apart. Go to appliancepartspros.com put in model number and you will get schematics on your dryer, this will show you where all parts are located.

The problem is likely the dryer belt . Here is a video on replacing a dryer belt. It may be a different model but the process will be the same. You can also enter in your model # for diagrams and illustrations. Not all models are available. All parts come with installation instructions.

Remove back of dryer and take out the elament shield and replace element don't over strech it start at one side and work it around thank you for useing fixya rate me

how well did you clean that duct, the duct is problem 90% of the time when the dryer does everything else, pretty much if the dryer heats and tumbles its doing its job
