My Tumble Dryer makes a humming sound when I turn it on.

If the dryer motor only hums when you press the On-Off button, the motor may be faulty. Here's how to test the dryer motor:

Remove the belt.

Check that the blower fan isn’t stuck in the housing.

Rotate the motor shaft by hand.

If the motor is stiff, or very difficult to rotate by hand, and the blower fan isn’t stuck in the housing, you’ll need to replace the Motor.

If the motor rotates freely, run the motor with the belt removed for a quick moment, with the blower fan fitted. If the motor runs fine with the belt removed, there may be a problem with the Motor Capacitor or the clothes drum. Try to rotate the drum by hand.

If it is very difficult to move, correct any problem with the rollers or pulley, and then reassemble the dryer and try it again. If replacing the Motor Capacitor doesn’t sort it, you’ll need to replace the Motor itself.
