It occurred to me the other day that I'm not sure what happens when my dryer above goes into its reverse tumble during the cycle. Does anyone know what happens to the fan? I'm assuming it does not run backwards, but then again, maybe it does. It's a squirrel cage fan so, it probably doesn't move much air going backwards. Or, maybe it's on a clutch and just free wheels when it's going backwards. Anybody know?

I have a Miele 9800 dryer that reverses and the fan does indeed reverse direction with the motor. These dryers have only 1 motor and the fan is attached to it. If you notice when its tumbling clockwise you can hear the airflow very well. Then the dryer stops to reverse and its a more muted sound. Now there are two belts in the dryer drive system...one small one from the motor to the drum drive pulley and one from the drive pulley to drive the drum. I had a belt break on the dryer and its no small job to replace it.
