So I changed a thermal fuse, as well as a finding a short in the idler switch in this god awful dryer. I had to take the drum out for the last part, and should have paid better attention to how it was threaded as it seemed too simple. However, now I can't get any tension back in this thing. I was looking at this image i found online (not my dryer, but rather someone elses, strung perfectly (bastards): ![]() But don't get how the pulley there has so much tension on it. Here is a picture of the drum and the pulley. Unfortunately you can't see the actual motor below. ![]() ![]() As you can see the belt is in the right groove - what am I missing here? How do I make this thing tight? I've given way too much time to give up now.... Thanks, Brett

PS It's GE, made by Camco (Canada) model number PBXR463EB2WW - basically just looking for any tips about getting the belt back on - wondering if its just been stretched...
