    I have a White Knight 447 WV tumble dryer which just makes a buzzing sound when i switch it on. Would appreciate it if anyone knows the fault. Thanks.

    Perhaps it doesn’t know the words.:)
    Sorry couldn’t help myself.

    . The motor capacitor would be the first thing to try if the drum will turn by using light to moderate force.

    Thanks 🙂 I can move the drum with little effort. I have just notice, though its very quiet, whats sound like a motor turning?

    Remove the mains plug and take the top off the machine, you should be able to check if the belt is still in place by doing that.

    That’s the way to go, the capacitor rating will be on it, cheap enough to try.
