Westinghouse woes - tub stall issue with the 58 L110 Laundromat

Slipping Primary Belt On A 58 3 Belt WH

The primary belt should be tight, if you deflect it it should spring back firmly, the secondary belt is should be even tighter.

 

Something is likely wrong with the tension spring on the tension pulley etc.

Steve, thank you for this.  I was looking for an illustration of the plate and spring before I did any messing around with it.

I have a gut feeling (which is more than likely wrong) that the assembly and/or the spring is damaged.   More exploratory surgery to follow.... not today though.  I need a break  LOL
