Dan S. for Model Number LDG9206AAE This is a follow-up question. I asked: In reattaching the drum belt to the pulley assembly, the belt seems to rub against the L-shaped piece attached to the pulley. I viewed the diagram (http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/dryer-repair/25860-dryer-belt-diagrams.html) and I think I have it correct. The diagram does not show the L-piece but shows the belt going straight from the pulley to the drum. My assumption is that the belt should not rub on the L-piece. I’m thinking that maybe once the assembly is operational that the spring tension keeps the belt from rubbing, but I want to make sure before I reassemble the whole dryer. Any thoughts? This was the response: Hello Dan. There is 2 slots in the base for the pulley to install into. It sounds like you have it in the wrong slot and will need to use the one that is next to the motor. Hope this helps. That answer makes no sense to me. There are no slots. There is a small pulley attached to the motor and a larger pulley (white plastic) below it. The belt wraps around the two pulleys in an S fashion. The belt, when it leaves the lower pulley, goes up to the tumbler drum, but it is rubbing against the L-bracket en route. I’m guessing it shouldn’t. Can you help me figure this out?
Answer Hello Dan. Yes, you are correct. The tension on the belt, should keep it from rubbing the l shaped piece. Hope this helps. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, January 2, 2012
