Maytag dryer won't start, just hums.
 
Hi, My 2005 Maytag dryer won't start, it just makes a humming noise.

I would like to try to fix this myself, but have no clue at all what I
am doing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks from a girl in desperate need.

Perhaps it forgot the words?

Does the drum spin easily by hand? Then perhaps the drive belt is
broken. That is fixable. Start he

Sounds like either the drive belt has broken or come off the drive pulley
on the motor. Unplug it, lay it on its front and remove the back. Look for
the belt. If it's still in one piece just pop it back onto the pulley.
There should be a little groove round the drum into which the belt settles
when working.

I just saw this response noozer and let me tell ya, how can any respectable
dryer forget the words to the star spangled banner ? Especially if the product
in question is American made ?
