Maytag Dryer Belt

This 5-rib poly-V drive belt transfers the motor's power to the appliance's drive system so the drum or basket turns smoothly. Replacing a stretched, glazed, or broken belt restores proper rotation and reduces slipping and noise.

• Transfers motor rotation to the drive system to spin or tumble the drum/basket
• Provides the necessary friction grip across pulleys; a worn belt may slip under load
• Typical symptoms: squealing or chirping, burning rubber odor, slow or no spin/tumble, visible cracks or fraying
• Intermittent movement at startup can also indicate belt wear

• Disconnect power and allow moving parts to stop before servicing
• Access the belt through the service panel(s) per your model's service information and note the routing path
• If equipped, release the belt tensioner/idler, remove the old belt, route the new belt, then reapply tension
• Rotate the pulley/drum by hand to seat the belt and verify alignment before reassembly and test

This poly-V blower belt links the motor to the blower wheel to move air through the appliance. Replacing a worn or broken belt restores proper airflow and helps maintain reliable drying/venting performance. What it does:

• Transfers motor rotation to the blower/impeller to circulate air
• Helps maintain proper airflow through the cabinet and exhaust
• Common failure signs include weak or no airflow at the vent, longer run times, or safety shutdown from poor airflow
• Physical clues: belt broken, frayed, glazed, stretched, or squealing from the blower area

• 1 poly-V blower belt

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off gas supply before servicing
• Access varies by model; remove panels or blower cover to reach the belt
• Note routing; seat belt ribs in pulley grooves and ensure correct tracking
• Rotate the blower by hand to confirm alignment before reassembly and test run

This replacement drive belt transfers power from the motor to the appliance's moving component. Replacing a worn, stretched, or broken belt restores proper motion and helps eliminate slippage, noise, and poor performance.

• Transfers motor rotation to a pulley-driven component
• Maintains proper grip and tension when routed over the idler/tensioner
• Ideal replacement for belts that are cracked, glazed, frayed, or broken

• Disconnect power; turn off gas supply if applicable
• Access the belt through the service panel per your model's service information
• Note the routing and idler/tensioner position before removal; take a photo for reference
• Inspect pulleys and the idler for wear; alignment and belt tension after installation
