Dryer Maintenance Kit (Small Belt)
This kit contains the drive belt, drum rollers, and idler pulley. In the WED4815EW model, the drum is driven by a 92-1/4 inch belt that frequently snaps due to age or friction. Replacing the entire kit is the professional standard because a worn idler pulley or seized rollers often create the excessive tension or heat that causes the belt to fail.

Drive Belt
The drive belt is the individual component that has likely physically snapped, disconnecting the motor's drive shaft from the drum circumference. This is the most granular component that directly restores drum rotation if the motor is still heard running.

Door Switch
If the dryer does not make any sound or attempt to start when the button is pushed, the door switch is the likely failure. This switch acts as a safety gate for the motor circuit; if the internal contacts fail or the plastic housing cracks, the dryer will not turn because the motor never receives power.
