If the belt has grooves cut into it, then the grooved side goes onto the drum, and the flat side facing uppermost.

It depends when it trips the breaker.. At the very beginning or when heater comes on. Check this article to determine an issue: https://howtofixit.net/what-to-check-if-your-dryer-keeps-tripping-breaker/

Disconnect the power to the Maytag dryer and wait 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, restore power and make a new selection. If the problem persists or the dryer will not operate, disconnect power once again and call Maytag for service.

4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS

Remove the ground strap screw from the terminal block support. Fold the ground strap over so both ends of the ground strap will be attached to the center terminal block post.

Connect the neutral (white) conductor of the cord to the center (silver) post of the terminal block. Connect the grounding (green) wire of the cord to the terminal block support using the ground strap screw.

Connect the red and black wires of the cord to the outer posts of the terminal block.

Be sure the terminal block nuts are on tight. Secure the power cord in position. Tighten the strain relief screw(s) in order to clamp the strain relief to the cord. Replace the terminal block cover.

Thats a communication error. Try unplugging for a bit.

If the dryer is working but not producing any heat you are having the most common problem with dryers. Most of the time the problem is in a blown fuse or a faulty heating element. There are times when the main control board needs to be replaced in order to solve this problem. Thermal Fuse: The thermal fuse prevents the dryer from over heating. Fuses are possibly located on the blower housing at a dryers heat source. For electric dryers this would be the heating element and for gas dryers this would be at the burner. If the fuse has blown it will have no continuity as shown by a multimeter. Pro Tip: A blown fuse could be the sign of a clogged vent or exhaust pipe. Check as required.

i don't know. most dryers come with a chart showing what wires are for. green is usually used for ground but read your chart. few have chart with owner's manual and most i have seen are in a clear plastic bag stuck on the back or stuck in the open area under the tub.

Nothing happens when push start button. All limits are good. Element tests at .001 ohms.

Check the igniter it should glow when turned on

I don't know what it means but you can try to reset the control panel by unplugging it for 10 minutes then plugging it back in. This may or may not help but it works every time my dryer gets stuck on or off with the panel display showing something odd, or stuck on so many minutes left but it doesn't ever stop. It won't cost you anything to try this. If it happens very often you may need the panel replaced.

I'm having trouble finding the exact capacity of your dryer, but I believe it is around 7.0 cu ft, which is about as large as you can get in a standard-width home dryer.

Most likely cause is a thermal fuse or the heating element. And if it's a thermal fuse, you need to make sure the dryer vent is clear and un-restricted, since that is the most common cause of thermal fuses blowing.

be very careful with electricity. fuses are in the home's wiring. open the dryer door. if possible follow the wire from the large plug back to the home's main electrical panel. there may be a small panel just for the dryer or it may be connected directly into the main panel. locate the fuses if used, unscrew them and replace them with ones you know are good or use an electrical meter to test the original fuses for continuity. install good fuses. if your system uses circuit breakers, locate the breakers and look to see if they have been moved from the on position. switch them off and on a few times and leave them on. go and close the dryer door and choose a new dryer setting to try to see if your dryer works. great if all works as it should. if dryer won't start or fails again, you need to have your house wiring inspected or your dryer repaired. call for help without delay.

i don't know. consider shutting off dryer, open the dryer door, turn off the main electrical source [shut off circuit breakers for dryer or unscrew fuses. shut the dryer door and turn breakers on and or fuses in. this may reset your machine's internal program. choose a new timed setting to see if all is OK.

It may seem crazy, but you have to remove the dryer door, and then take the door apart to be able to replace the handle! I've tried doing it without taking the door apart, and I only ended up damaging the door and replacement handle!
