Why your Continental Girbau commercial dryer is drum not turning
Here's how drum not turning typically presents on a Continental Girbau commercial dryer: motor hums but drum stays still. Drive belt, idler pulley, or motor coupling. More often than not it traces back to a failed drive motor. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.

Known Continental Girbau commercial dryer weak points

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. 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.
