No appliance is able to work endlessly. All the parts wear down over time. Your Samsung dryer could fail and refuse to work properly because of the same reason. If the drum doesn’t turn, it can be the sign that the belt could be torn. The drive belt is a very long, thin belt wrapped around the idler pulley, and then around the drive motor pulley. Over time, the belt can wear out from normal use or being overloaded. If the belt is damaged, the dryer will not rotate. To quickly determine if a belt is damaged, go to the dryer and turn the drum by hand. If the drum turns very easily, the belt is probably damaged. Then check the belt to make sure it is damaged and requires a replacement. Unplug the electrical cord of the Samsung dryer from the electrical outlet before attempting to replace the belt. Locate the screws on the bottom of the front panel, and remove them with a screwdriver. Pull the front panel up, dislodging it from the clips on the top of the panel and place the panel out of the way. Remove the shroud cover that is below the dryer drum, unfastening the screws with a screwdriver and locating the motor and idler arm at the base of the dryer cabinet. Push the idler arm forward by hand to relieve the tension on the belt, and remove the belt from the motor and idler arm pulleys as well as from around the dryer drum. Place the new belt around the drum, and move the idler arm forward to give enough slack to loop the belt over the motor pulley and around the idler arm pulley, letting the idler arm move back to add tension to the belt. Reattach the shroud cover to the dryer with screws and place the front panel in position, sliding the top of the panel over the clips and securing the bottom with screws. Plug the electrical cord of the Samsung dryer into the electrical outlet. If that looks like a challenge, don’t hesitate to request assistance.
