Why your LG dryer is drum not turning
When a LG dryer is drum not turning, here's what you'll usually notice: motor hums but drum stays still. Drive belt, idler pulley, or motor coupling. More often than not it traces back to a worn idler pulley. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.
Most likely causes
- Failed motor coupling
- A worn idler pulley
- A failed drive motor
Known LG dryer weak points
- Linear compressor cooling failure (class-action litigation)
- Front-load drum bearing wear causing grinding/rumble
- Recurring UE unbalanced-load errors on washers
- Water and ice dispenser malfunctions
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
The one self-check that's actually worth your time: check whether the drum turns at all by hand with the unit unplugged, which tells you if it's electrical or mechanical. Also, confirm the door is closing and latching fully, since most units lock the drum if they don't sense a secure door. When that isn't the fix, if the door's fine, it's a belt, coupler, or motor issue inside the cabinet, and reaching those parts means partially disassembling the unit — not a first-time DIY job.
How we fix it
An experienced tech tests the LG dryer systematically and pinpoints what's actually causing the drum not turning. Genuine LG OEM parts are widely available through authorized distributors, but sealed-system refrigerant repairs (including linear compressors) require an experienced technician. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.
