how and where do I replace a belt on my white westinghouse clothes dryer?

My dryer will not tumble, I am guessing the belt is broken, it was squeeking for a while and then quit turning. I don't know where I open up the dryer to replace the belt?

Hello,

If the motor is running and the drum is not turning it definately sounds like a broken belt. You access this dryer sticking a putty knife between the front and the top panels to undo the 2 clips and lift the top panel up. There is a clip toward each end. After that, remove the front panel screws inside the dryer. On this dryer you have to access the belt from the back of the dryer behind the panel. Hope this helps some.
