WP40111201 Whirlpool Dryer Drive Belt

**Dryer Drive Belt**

Whirlpool manufactures products under various brands including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. They also produce items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The dryer drive belt is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It connects the motor to the drum, enabling it to tumble. Over time, these belts can stretch, wear out, or break, causing the drum to stop turning and clothes to remain damp.

**Symptoms of a Faulty Dryer Belt:**
- The dryer motor runs, but the drum doesn't turn.
- There is a squealing or thumping noise.
- The dryer fails to start.

**Common Causes of Belt Failure:**
- Regular wear and tear from normal use.
- Overloading the dryer, which adds stress to the belt.
- Misalignment, leading to uneven wear.

A damaged belt can hinder your dryer's performance and may cause motor strain. Replacing a worn-out belt ensures your dryer operates efficiently, drying clothes evenly and quickly. This OEM part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
