    Drier will not start
    Kenmore 110.96583220
    Sudden death, apparent broken belt, belt replaced, power at wall receptacle, at both sides of blower-mounted fuse and thermostat, door switch OK, pulley motor switch reset properly.

    No juice at the motor? (It's not easy to get to to make measurements with all parts assembled).

    Any ideas?

    Can you remove the leads from the motor the check power at that point? Jumper around the thermal fuse as well to see if unit will start.

    When you replaced the belt did you reset/realign the broken belt switch arm? If not, there is your problem.
