Won't spin or agitate

After installing the dryer, use Smart Install mode to verify everything works: Press Adjust Time Up + Temp for 7 seconds. Display shows SC. It tests the moisture sensor (touch sensor) and the motor/heater in two steps. If both pass, display shows OK. If motor or heater fails, display shows HC. This is faster than running a full cycle to verify installation.

Noise from the motor area can be caused by debris (lint, small objects) stuck on the blower fan wings, creating an imbalance. Remove any alien particles from the fan wings and check that the fan nut (14mm) is properly tightened. This is a different problem from blower housing rubbing and does not require fan replacement if the fan itself is undamaged. The nut tightness also affects balance.

When reinstalling the drum belt, it must be positioned between the 2 red arrow markers on the drum. If the belt is not properly located between these markers, it can slip, track incorrectly, or come off during operation, causing the belt cut-off switch to activate and stop the dryer.

When reassembling the drum belt, it must be positioned between the 2 red arrows on the drum. If the belt is not properly located, it may slip, causing improper tumbler speed, extended drying times, and potentially triggering the belt cut-off switch. This is a commonly missed step during drum reassembly.
