Hi

I really need your help again, my tumble dryer has stopped spinning but is making a noise so i took the top and side off and discovered that the belt has partially ripped and is quite slack and is not turning the drum, I have found the right belt on ebay to fit the hotpoint condenser dryer ctd00g and replace it, the question is, is it easy to fit and would i need any special tools to do it and how,

sorry to be a pain also the little wheel attatched to the spindle of the motor is wobbly should it be like this? i turned on the machine with the side off and the spindle on the motor is spinning but the belt is buggered.

Kind Regards

Jo
