- Notes: The failure to spin the dryer drum stems from broken drive belts as well as worn drum rollers or problems with the motor. Check the dryer belt status while the dryer is open to verify belt snap or looseness. If broken, replace it. Sustainable drum rollers lead to sticking issues that will need replacement of the entire unit. The dryer motor requires professional attention and replacement or professional maintenance when the start button fails to activate the motor operation.
