Hello I Purchased A Used Washer And Dryer Set Off Sumone That Lives In My Area. They Told Me They Worked Nothing Wrong. Said Was Bought In 2004. Well We Got It Hooked Up And When We Try To Push Start Is Tries Too But Just Stops As Soon As U Hit The Start Button. Then To Come To Find Out The Lady Said Oh Ya It Needs A New Belt Well I Dont Think That Would Make It Smokey And Not Start And Try To Make Asound When Trying To Start It? Is There Anything My Husband Can Do To Tell What Is Wrong With It?

It sounds like the motor may be seized or something is binding it so it can't turn.

Check in the blower housing.

If the motor is jammed it would smoke when you try to get it going.

Can you please supply your model number?
