How to fix a Tandem 7300 front loader dryer belt on Amana?
Replacing the dryer belt on an Amana Tandem 7300 front loader dryer involves disassembling the dryer to access the drum area where the belt is located. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you replace the dryer belt: 1. Safety First: Unplug the dryer from the power source to ensure your safety during the repair. 2. Access the Dryer Interior: Open the dryer's door and remove the screws that hold the top panel in place. Slide the top panel backward and lift it off. Depending on the model, you might need to remove the front panel as well. 3. Remove the Drum: After accessing the interior, you'll need to remove the drum. This may involve disconnecting the belt from the motor pulley and carefully lifting the drum out of the dryer. 4. Release Tension from the Belt: If the old belt is intact, you'll need to release tension to remove it from the drum and motor pulley. Reach under the drum and release the tension by moving the tensioner arm or idler pulley. 5. Install the New Belt: Place the new dryer belt around the drum in the same position as the old one. Make sure the ribbed side of the belt is against the drum. 6. Attach the Belt to the Motor Pulley: Reattach the belt to the motor pulley and tensioner assembly, following the same path as the original belt. This may involve pulling the tensioner arm back and threading the belt through the pulley. 7. Reassemble the Drum: Carefully reinsert the drum into the dryer, ensuring that it's properly seated on the support rollers. 8. Reattach Panels: If you removed the front panel, reattach it securely using screws. 9. Test the Dryer: Plug the dryer back in and run a test cycle to ensure that the drum is rotating smoothly and the belt is functioning properly. 10. Maintenance: To prevent future issues, keep the dryer interior clean and free of lint. Regular maintenance can help extend the life of the belt and other components. If you're not comfortable with these steps or if the process seems complex, consider seeking help from a professional appliance repair technician. They have experience with these types of repairs and can ensure that the belt is properly replaced without causing further damage to your Amana Tandem 7300 front loader dryer.

I flipped all the breakers, and still not turning on. The AC is not turning either on the central heating and HVAC unit. The HVAC unit is Trane and it’s located on the roof.
