I have a Frigidaire Crown Series clothes dryer (Model F31C546CS0). It is approximately 10 years old. The belt has broken and I need help/suggestions.

Should I replace the belt or just replace. The unit is in good shape overall but I am concerned that it may be about time to replace it.

I am also having a problem removing the drum. I have the front off/disconnected and the top raised. What needs to be done to free the drum from the back? I thought it would just slide out?

Thanks for any tips..

Many Frigidaire have a hold down bracket which has 2 screws which are removed from the back side of unit. Remove them and the drum should come out
