Yes the belt is intact and in place.

Checked this as well and all seems fine.

Also, I think that there is a relay that turns the motor on and off, check for voltage on that when you press the start button.

if the timer doesn't run on 220v, then there should be a small transformer somewhere, see if that is putting out 110v when needed.

I need to get the tester out but I can check. You of course assume that I know what i'm doing with a multimeter ) (I.e do I need to have the dryer plugged in to do this test?)

I see a few thermostats on the diagram but no relays
