Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
(Start by this!)
I always recommend buying a replacement as belts are not expensive- sorry I do not know how much yours would cost- and are easy to be changed by a competent person (assuming a front loader!):-
REMOVE POWER FROM THE MACHINE AND REMOVE THE BACK.
The motor support bolts should be loosened and the old belt removed. Often putting the new belt on is a bit of a struggle, even with the motor 'loose', because it is new and smaller!
Once on it should be tensioned by pulling the motor against the belt firmly- but not over tight- and the motor support bolts tightened.
ON NO ACCOUNT SHOULD ANY FORM OF LEVERAGE BE USED TO TENSION THE BELT. THAT COULD LEAD TO DAMAGE TO THE BELT, MOTOR AND BEARINGS- EXPENSIVE!


If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!
John C

Could be the pulleys are not lined up right or if there is an outfit that is suppose to hold the belt in place it may have come loose or moved. Make sure the belt is the right size and does not slip.

Belt replacement - possible missing part
There are some excellent exploded view illustrations you can use for a reference at searspartsdirect.com. Just type in your model number and look under the link on the following page. There is also a zoom feature so you can get closer views if needed.

There are also helpful dryer belt diagrams listed at repairclinic.com. Just click on the "Repair Help" link at the top of the page and look for the "Dryer Belt Diagram" link on the following page listed under "Special Features". The Fridgidaire diagrams are listed as C, B, and G. You will have to know the age of the appliance to make sure the diagram you are using is accurate. If you do not know the age, please post back with your SERIAL number and I can tell you how old it is. I hope you find this information helpful.

Fridgidaire GLET1041AS1
Unplug unit! Remove top screws and pull off top lid of dryer. Heater terminals should be at top right. Use ohm meter to check resistance. If ohms won't display, then your heater unit probably has an open circuit. For instance, my GLET1031 has a reading of 12.5 ohms.

Top rack keeps slipping off of tub rollers.
I was sold this model and had the same thing happen.. However when calling for service, my service rep would not come out, so I contacted Fridgidaire and provided the model and serial # of my unit and was told I was sold an unrepairable unit that had already been returned for service for the same thing and considered unrepairable and was no longer under warranty. When my supplier finally came out he put new longer rollers in my dishwasher, but when I mentioned what Fridgidaire had told me, he went back to his supplier and they got me a new one. Being installed today.. The new one is a PDA2855 model as I am told that the PLD2850 is no longer sold.
