Drum not spinning in East York — what is different locally
On East York's tight interwar and postwar lots — the bungalow-and-semi belt running through Woodbine Heights, Pape Village and Old East York — the dryer almost always sits in a low cellar, frequently the original set wrestled down a steep, narrow stair. A drum that powers up but won't turn on that stock points first at a stretched or broken drive belt, then a seized idler pulley or worn-out drum rollers, not the drive motor; we pull the cabinet, inspect the belt path and idler, and spin the blower by hand to prove it's free before pricing a motor. We also confirm the 30-amp circuit so a lint-choked, overheated stall doesn't read as a dead drive. The real wrinkle out here is the carry — a side door off a mutual drive, never the diagnosis.
