A new dryer scrape, thump or squeal can have several causes.
A new dryer scrape, thump or squeal can have several causes. The type of sound and when it occurs help us choose the right checks.
Describe whether the noise starts immediately or after warming up. Tell us about changes in drum movement, heat or drying time.
Stop if the noise is severe or comes with burning or overheating. Do not remove a cover to listen beside moving parts.
We inspect the drum supports, drive and other relevant parts before quoting a repair. We do not choose a part from the sound alone.
Describe a regular thump, squeal, scrape or continuous rumble, and whether it started after an item or load changed. Stop a dryer that grinds or bangs heavily. An account of when the noise occurred is useful without running a damaged appliance again.
Send the full model number, the symptom and any displayed code when you request a visit. The $49 service call is applied toward the repair; confirm the full quote before authorizing work. See the repair cost guide for questions to ask.
