Zanussi ZWF14070W Washing Machine?

The drum does spin freely, before a fair bit of pressure was needed to move it by hand. Does the motor detect the belt is off, as it does not attempt to start?
Machine is almost 4 years old, and I've never had any other problems with it.
It was creaking a bit before it stopped working, so I suspect the belt has snapped.
Is it easy enough to fit a replacement belt?

if the drum when spun free wheels for a long time then the belt has come off.If the motor doesn't rotate it could be a wiring issue or motor brushes but on average a set of brushes last 4yrs plus
