My dryer just started making noise. It seems to come and go. It’s a model 110.87692100. Here is a video with the noise. It gets the worse around 3 seconds. This just continues in a cycle, sometimes being quiet for a while. Here is the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVthYKjg… Here is a picture of the full SN label.
I trying slowing the drum with my hand (carefully), and it doesn’t make the sound worse or better, but it does change the sound because the speed changes. I tried pushing the drum up down left and right and that didn’t trigger the noise. It’s a pretty fast sound (rotationally), so I was thinking about the motor. Any thoughts? Also doesn’t anyone have the repair manual for this unit?
Hi, It may also be that the drum roller bearings or drum roller axles are worn. I couldn’t find a free service manual online but I did find a video on how to replace the rollers and this account of how to access the motor (and also the rollers?) which may be of some help.
