FAQs
Is this belt compatible with other Creda models?
No, this specific belt is engineered exclusively for the T313VW and T323VW models.
Do I need special tools to replace the belt?
Basic hand tools such as a screwdriver set are generally sufficient to remove the outer panels of the dryer.
How do I know if my current belt is broken?
If your dryer motor runs but the drum does not turn, or if you hear a loud snapping sound followed by total loss of rotation, the belt is likely broken.
Should I replace the tensioner pulley while I have the dryer open?
While not strictly required, it is good practice to inspect the tensioner pulley for smooth rotation and replace it if it shows signs of wear.
What is the best way to ensure the belt stays in place?
Ensure the tensioner spring is engaged correctly; a loose tensioner is the most common cause of a belt falling off during operation.
Troubleshooting
Belt keeps slipping after installation
Verify that the belt is correctly seated in the motor pulley grooves and that the tensioner spring is functioning properly.
Excessive noise during operation
Check that the belt is properly aligned on the drum path and not rubbing against the dryer chassis.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting installation, always disconnect the dryer from the electrical power supply to prevent injury. To install, you will typically need to remove the top and side panels of the dryer to access the motor and drum assembly. Route the belt around the drum, ensuring the grooved side faces the drum surface, and loop it securely around the motor tensioner pulley. To maintain the life of your new belt, avoid overloading the dryer beyond its rated capacity, as excessive weight puts unnecessary strain on the rubber, leading to premature stretching or snapping.
