Frances T February 02, 2014 for Model Number ADE7000AYW Making a horrible banging noise throughout entire cycle. Seems to be with every turn of the drum. Otherwise works fine.
1 Answer Hello Frances. Check and see if the rollers WP31001096 are bad on the unit. If so, they will cause the issues with the unit making the banging noise. If they are bad, you will also need to replace the supports WP53-0197 for the unit. Read More...
Chris May 14, 2013 for Model Number Amana ale643rbw Our dryer has started to make a squeaking sound when run, and is now sounding like the rollers are getting ready seize. Should all the rollers be replaced and what else should be replaced too?
1 Answer Hello Chris. Yes, replace all the rollers and check the glides WP37001298. If worn replace them as well. Also, make sure the idler pulley is good and is not worn on the unit. Read More...
Lg January 02, 2012 for Model Number lnc8766a71 The dryer would randomly make a noise and stop in the middle of a cycle. Once it stopped you just had to push the start knob again to get it going. This initial problem has gotten worse. Now the problem is that when the dryer stops and you push the start knob it makes a buzzing sound and won’t start. After waiting about 15 minutes it will start. When problem happens and you just leave the dryer alone it never starts up but the timer continues to run to end of cycle.
1 Answer Hello. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the dryer motor W10410996 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
Kim October 23, 2011 for Model Number PYE2300ayw Problem I'm having is one of these idler wheels squeaks on the drum until it warms up, or at least runs for about 3-4 minutes. It isn't the bushing squeaking because I've sprayed WD40 on the drum attempting to find the cause, and it is the rubber making the noise because it does stop until the WD40 is rubbed away. There appears to be no wear on the rubber, and only one of the idlers is making the noise. Could it simply be the rubber is dried out causing the noise? I have cleaned the part of the drum the idler runs in, and that made no difference.
1 Answer Hello Kim. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the lube in the bushing is gone, and you will need to replace the rollers WP31001096. If the rubber or the lube is bad, the unit does squeak until it gets hot. Hope this helps. Read More...
