    Hi all,

    I have got a White Knight 44AW tumble dryer that is about 9 years old, never had a problem with it until today. The drum jammed up and stopped spinning. I took it apart and found there is a felt seal on the door side that had all been chewed up and jammed the drum, this has in turn broken the drive belt.
    I’ve been online and found a seal kit on the White Knight website, but the drive belt has been discontinued and they don’t offer an alternative.
    Does anyone know the part numbers for a suitable belt and door seal?
    Is it worth repairing?​​​​​​
    If not, can anyone recommend a replacement for it, preferably vented as it sits in a garage?

    As always, any advice greatly appreciated.

    Cheers Paul.

    Thanks Dave, that’s great.

    Yes, that certainly looks like the seal kit.

    The model number is 0312 44A 15100

    At 9 years old is it worth repairing?

    cheers.

    The belt has “Gates 4213 078 50862” stamped on it.

    Cheers Paul.
