Description

This motor-drive assembly powers drum rotation and the dryer's internal blower so laundry tumbles and exhausts properly. It replaces a worn or failed drive motor to restore normal drying and airflow performance. What it does:

• Spins the dryer drum so clothes tumble evenly during the cycle
• Powers the blower to move air through the drum and vent
• Stops drum rotation if the motor fails, causing no-tumble or reduced drying
• May produce humming, grinding, or burning-odor symptoms when worn

What's included:

• One motor-drive assembly as shown

Install notes:

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the dryer before starting
• Remove appropriate access panels and support the drum
• Handle wiring connectors and mounting screws carefully; reconnect all grounds
• Test the dryer on a short cycle after installation and verify normal rotation and airflow
