Kingston C Redwood City , CA November 13, 2015 Appliance: General Electric Gas Dryer DBLR333GT0WW My clothes dryer was making a terrible squeaking noise After taking off the top and front panels to access the drum, it was easy to see what the problem was. The front drum support was worn through and the 3 drum support glides were gone. The rear drum bearing was also completely worn out. And while I had the dryer apart I also replaced the idler pulley and drive belt. The only hard part was putting the drive belt back on the motor shaft and idler pulley. The dryer is back to drying clothes like a new machine. Read More... 37 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Nut Drivers, Screwdrivers

Johnny I Clinton , MO June 12, 2017 Appliance: General Electric Electric Dryer BJLR473ET0WW Won't start and making a squealing noise when trying to start After tearing into the dryer and cleaning out all the lint I ultimately determined the dryer motor needed to be replaced along with some other items. Why not replace some old, worn out parts while I had the dryer tore apart. Now it's running like a new dryer at half the price to repair compared to buying a new one.
