W have a beko dpu8360 tumble dryer. The motor belt broke about 2 months ago and we replaced it. The same thing has happened again and the motor belt (not the big dryer belt, the small one attached to motor) has parted along the belt, I.e not broke in half just split. Not sure if to replace again or not as obviously something else is causing this to happen. Any ideas? Thanks.

Could be improper voltage, thermal fuse, control board, door switch, wiring, motor, and maybe a few things I’m leaving out.

not same model number .but on my beko....i had to remove side panel.........remove element cover remove motor fan inside fan opening is 4 small bolts,. remove them..... ,.they hold motor to back plate...on front of machine.remove front fan.....then from side panel..remove plastic motor covering and wire harnes...then the motor just pulls forwards remove back plate...and machine bearing...put new belt on.... manover motor back inti place then refit as you took apart..........

chers

look on the machine floor for a hole / split or recess for spring to stick in ........

check the belt that goes around the drum to be correctly mounted at the motor area also inspect the rollers that hold and turn the drum

do you have it routed around the belt tensioner pulley correctly? if its loose its not routed correctly

idler pulley bad or installed incorrectly

hi folks the beko tumble dryers have a felt seal that runs along the front of the drum that wears through causing load on the drum, belt and motor causing the belt to melt and snap, replace the felt you will have no more issues, i got mine off of ebay pretty cheap

The motor is bad and needs replaced. It could be the contacts or the bearings, either way you have to replace the motor.

Check your drum belt, sometimes this belt is broken or slipped off the motor pulley or idler arm pulley.
Also could be a faulty motor..
Another thing to try is to turn the drum by reaching inside of the drum and turning it by hand 1/4-1/2 turn with the dryer off. Then turn the dryer on again and see if it works.
Motors will sometimes get a dead zone in them and this help move it from the dead zone.
