Thank you for your video from a housewife that was going crazy with the dryer squeak. I had asked my husband to look at it but with work and the holidays coming, he just didn't have time. I decided to attempt the fix myself. With the step-by-step instructions, I was able to take the dryer apart, clean everything (which I think was half the problem), grease all the moving parts and put the dryer back together. Guess what?? It works so much better than before. One thing to note, I had originally looked at another video for a Maytag but wasn't the same brand and that video had me taking the back off so it's important to find a video that has your same brand, make and model. However, I'm not disappointed that I got the wrong video because I was able to completely clean all the parts in the back of the dryer as well as under the dryer. I'm so happy with the finished results!!! Keep the handyman fixes coming.

Dude, you’re my hero. Our dryer was squeaking so obnoxiously it was unbearable. I watched your video a couple of times and went in. I found the wheel in the back left side had no Teflon washers on the back. Fortunately there were two on the right. I took one off the right and swapped it to the left, lubed them both up and bingo! FIXED!! Thank you SO much for the information. I actually can’t believe I was able to disassemble it AND get it back together. I’m amazing!!!!!

Thank you for the video. I came home to the wife telling me the dryer is making a noise. She already had a new dryer picked out at Lowes for $600. After watching your video, I had it fixed in less than an hour with no money spent. I Appreciate your help.

Thank you for the help! Indeed our squeak was one of the barrel support wheels, I applied some lithium automotive grease and the problem was fixed. Hardest part was releasing and reinstalling the clip on the wheel (had to improvise with a couple of mini flat head screw drivers).

Saved me from dragging it out in the middle of laundry room to find out cabinet was sealed in back - need to fix from the front! Thank you!

Thanks for posting this. My Maytag was a little different but still the same problem. You fixed yours in 30 minutes. I fixed mine in 2 hours because my wife helped. Had to clean everything.

Thank you. We just followed this video & now my dryer is fixed!! Money saved and extremely happy

Thank you so much! Never thought I could fix a dryer on my own but this video was spot on and extremely helpful!

Thank you so much! You saved me a couple of hundred... my tension wheel had come out of place and I just needed to pop it back in and reposition the belt and we are back in business!!! Thanks soooo much !!

Thanks so much for the video! Was ready to buy new dryer, took my Maytag apart and just as you described...... Took care of the problem! Thank you!!!

I have the same dryer but mine makes a thump on every 360 deg. turn, pretty sure it's one of the two drum rollers that has worn out and ordered them both. This video provided great info, thanks!

1,000 thanks from this wife. My hubs just had rotator cuff repair & is not able to repair dryer. So I found your video & viola, I fixed it!

Thank you. Out of the half dozen I watched yours was easily the best

Thank you for making this video! Perfectly resolved my issue, and without any additional costs!

Thank you so much . I just watched it and am sure thats what is wrong with mine . Going to repair mine now . 2 / 15 /23

Just like the many times I used utube videos to fix things your video was helpful my dryer required to take mostly apart but if you lay it down on it's back reach all the way back with a oil can and get two wheels the 3rd wheel impossible so I drilled a very small hole in the side flipped it over on its opposite side and had a easy oil job for that wheel and I only had to take off the front cover 👌

wow I came for the fishing and stayed to learn how to fix the squeaky dryer. Your not just a fishing magician but a dryer magician too!😀

Your The MAN!!! My hero. Thank you so much.. 💓 my hubby and I just fixed our dryer with your video... and our first project together and we didn't fight!!! Yippe

You just saved me an appliance repair call. Exact same issue, same solution. Cheers!

Thank you this helped with our dryer. I appreciate your time and the video. 😊

Just wanted to say thank you as it was one of my bearings along the back wall but like you did I cleaned it and it works perfectly!!! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

Great worked like a champ. Had a different dryer but they’re all about the same. Thanks for the tips!!

You saved me $$. Thanks for your time to put this video together.

That was exactly what was wrong with mine. Hour tops to take completely apart, lube and put back together. Thank you my friend. Cost me nothing.

Thank you for this you saved me about 800 bucks.

Worked like a charm!! I was afraid I was gonna have to replace the felt seal which is a real pain in the neck. Fortunately a little bit o'lube in the right places works wonders 🤣 Being an older guy the high pitched squeal didn't bother me so much....it was the rest of my family who were complaining! 😛

For me, it has always been the drum rollers. I drilled holes in the side and put in electrical box plugs and painted them white so that when they needed to be lubricated I could do it without taking the dryer apart. I did the same for the side by the idler and motor and in the front to be able to sight the burner. I got the idea from another model they sell that comes with holes and plugs like that.

Thank you sir, very simple and informative repair video, it helped me repair my dryer! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thanks for the video, perfect diagnosis for the squeaking noise. Definitely saved us some money as we fixed it for zero $ as well!

Gonna try this on Saturday, I have a Maytag Performa, same damn sound! Much appreciated!

Thanks! Worked perfect except my squeal was one of the drum wheels. I had trouble getting the front panel off until I realized it had to be lifted straight up!

Thank you so much for this video. I was able to fix it that terrible squeak. no parts ordered, no handyman, no husband's assistance even. (:

Great video. Wrapping that belt around the drum was a challenge but other than that I took your direction and presto. No more squeaking.

Thank you for this video, i was able to fix this squeaky noise in my Maytag dryer!

Zero dollars spent is the way to go 👍, thank you very much for the video!!!

Thanks for the video, helped me out and I was easily able to fix the squeaky wheel !!!Thank you Sir!!

Thanks, this helped me fix my dryer with the same issue

This helped. Thanks. Only I still didn’t know how to get the front panel off. It pops off clips pulling straight up from the bottom.

you saved me a lot of grief. thank you.

Thank you So much your video came in very handy. No more squeaks!

Great job my bro!!!! Thank you! You saved my family some coins!!!

Thank you for the video....I will try this today.

great job thanks will be checking my pulley this weekend

Same dryer same problem. Thanks for the video

Just wanted too say tHanku.. Came across this AS our Maytag Dryer started making "THE NOISE" 😂 Replaced nothing! but maybe soon.. a Lil Lube.. all quiet 🤫 on the WESTERN FRONT!!

Thank you for your video. My dryer has the same squeaking noise.

I've just fixed mine.thanks so much!!!!

thank you, you just save me at least $500 I was about to buy a new dryer

Oh wow, and to think was about to purchase a new dryer because mine's making this exact noise currently and I can't stand it. I'm sure my neighbors feel the same way, I always close the windows.

Very good especially recording the squeaking sound before the fix so we may compare our noise to yours. Thank you.

Thanks buddy you saved me some money.

Thanks. Ours was making the noise a lot. Opened it up. Was afraid to remove the drum, so I lubricated any pulley or wheel I could get to, missing only the one on the left. When I restarted it, it made noise but not as much. After about 10 minutes running, it almost stopped completely. Whenever it gets worse, I may do again and remove the drum too.

thanks buddy! you saved me some time today on fixing my squeek! kudos to you my man! Thanks again! 🤜🤛

This works! Thank you!

Definitely a helpful video👍🏿🤙🏿👊🏿

Thank you so much the squeezing was driving me nuts

Thanks a bunch. Great video

Thanks. Found $20 in loonies and toonies plus a bunch of guitar picks.

Saved me...thank you!

Don't stretch spring unless necessary, belt and spring tension are designed to lightly wrap around the drum where the clothes will tumble falling from the top of the drum during operation in to heat. If the belt is to tight due to stretching the spring or tightening of belt the faster spinning of the tub will cause the clothes to ride the inside of the tub during rotation and the centrifugal force will hold the clothes to drum wall taking a long drying cycle.

Awesome thank you huge time savings for me. Cheers

Good fix but the root cause is a cheap design in the pulley tensioner wheel. It is a metal to plastic contact that rotates instead of a more expensive actual bearing. The lubricant helps for a while then the slight wear from use brings it back to squeaking. I never had this problem in an older dryer that lasted decades but had an actual bearing on the tensioner pulley.

Very helpful, thank-you

Thanks a lot man that was exactly my problem except the wheel was locked up and would break free once in a while squeeling

Thank you for downloading this video my dryer Is doing the exact same thing

Thank you for the video.

Very helpful much obliged

Worked like a charm.. cost nothing but a couple sprays of wd-40.

thanks man. it worked

This sounds like it might be the issue for my dryer and I want to give it a try. I have a gas dryer, though, so after I unplug and turn gas valve off, are there any other parts inside as I remove the drum I might need to be aware of as far as the gas connection lines go? I have never torn a dryer apart before, but the video seems easy enough...just want to be safe about it!

Thank you for sharing

Thank you Sir

Man thank you so much really

Best how to video yeti

Great video...I just fixed mine with a little oil. If your ever in Chicago I'll buy you a beer...HA

Which type of lubricant is best to use to grease the pulley?

That's exactly what my sounds like..thank u

Thanks! Just did it on mine and worked well! No parts to buy!

Please let me know how to adjust spinning wheel,my dryer make grinding noise

Shoutout to you !

Thanks for the video!!. I replaced the rollers and put it all back together and now i have a slight burn smell..is that normal when replacing with brand new rollers?

Thank you !!!!!

What if the dryer is making all that noise and then it hums? I thought maybe it was the belt so I got another belt but if it’s something else, I have no clue.
