Sorry but I'm betting on the belt. Without a filter, the area around the drum fills with lint and makes it harder to turn which is tough on belts.
I feel your pain on getting it out. 'Had ours out last year to replace the blower motor and it was a "royal pain". I believe the W/D was placed on the floor and our 5th wheel was built around it. It is heavy at around 150 lbs. The belt on ours was in bad shape so I ordered one along with the blower. The belt was here in a few days but the blower motor took over 2 months. 'Must have literally come on the "slow boat from China".
If our quits again, I plan to replace it with a better unit.
Good luck!!
ps: If and when you replace the belt, be sure to remove the rubber plugs from the rear of the cabinet and use a vacuum to get the lint out.
