I have a Frigidaire washing machine and I need to replace the belt. I’m not sure how to go about this, so I’m looking for advice from people who have experience with this type of repair. Can anyone provide me with step-by-step instructions on how to replace the belt? I would really appreciate any help or advice that anyone can offer.
1. Unplug the washing machine from the wall outlet.
2. Open the washing machine lid.
3. Locate the tensioner pulley, which is the wheel that keeps the belt tight.
4. Remove the belt from the pulley.
5. Measure the belt to ensure you purchase the correct size.
6. Purchase a new belt from a hardware or appliance store.
7. Place the new belt around the motor pulley and the drum pulley.
8. Pull the tensioner pulley away from the belt and slide the belt onto the pulley.
9. Release the tensioner pulley and allow the belt to become taut.
10. Close the lid and plug the washing machine back into the wall outlet.
