Symptoms of a failing Blower Wheel include:

• Reduced airflow, resulting in clothes not drying properly or increased drying times
• Unusual noises like rattling or thumping, suggesting the wheel may be loose or damaged
• Excessive vibration of the dryer, especially if the blower wheel is unbalanced
• The dryer overheating due to restricted airflow if the wheel is clogged or malfunctioning

Causes of a bad blower wheel typically involve objects getting caught in the wheel, lint build-up that unbalances the wheel, or wear and tear that leads to the wheel's fins breaking or deforming.
