Medium heat is not as hot as regular.

Hello, I would say that from the sound of things one of the pullyed in the back is dry, put a couple of drops of machine oil on the efected pulley. Use the same sort of oil that is used on sewing machines, however if you see that grease is used you will have to use greas. I hope this is of help to you.

Start devise on motor is defective, replace motor...... call repair tech

Sounds like your problem is with the heating coil.
If you plan to try to repair the problem yourself, then the first thing you want to do is unplug the dryer from the electric.
Remove the back of the machine and try to locate the air tube going from the blower to the drum. Normally inside the air tube you will find the heating coil and the thermostats/thermistor.
Once you have located the heating coil, remove the two wires from it and check the coil with a continuity meter across the two terminals of the coil.
You should read continuity across the terminals, if not you will need to replace the coil as it is faulty.
Good Luck,
Hope this helps

turn breaker off and push off hard till you can feel an hear the click to reset then back on

The start relay itself seals in and keeps you running. If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/craig_3fa289bf857b1a3c

OK. There is only one belt. To open the dryer, pull forward on the TOP of the dryer at the corners. You may have to open the lint filter cover and remove 2 screws holding the lint filter guide in place.

The top is held in place by two clips that, when you pull forward on the top, will release. Pull forward and lift up. I always put a knee up right below the top in the center to aid in making sure the dryer doesn't move when pulling on the top.

The top will then lift up from the front tilting backwards.

you may be running one side of your 240
if its electric please do a voltage on both sides of your plg to make sure your getting 240

if it does not stay red after you open the door then it's ok. but opening the door in mid cycle is not a good habit. turn off heat for a minute first will help the elements last longer.

It's the roller axles and/or the motor shaft. Remove the front of the dryer and lubricate same.

Have you checked the heating element to see if it's bad? The easiest way to determine if it's bad is to turn the dryer on without clothes in it and let it run for about 30 seconds and then open the door while its running and if you see a orange glow then your element is fine if not then it's probably bad. If you don't see the orange glow then you'll need to pull it apart and look at the element and if it's bad you should be able to see a break in the metal.
Good luck!

Squeaking is the rear drum bearing. The rest is the front drum slide supports. After a number of years, these wear and need replacing. Without the model number I can't give you the part numbers that fit your machine.

If the noise is like a shaking of rattling , like coins being shaked , then it is an object trapped inside the drum.

If instead the noise is a loud grinding , that may get louder on high speed, then it is usually a bad drum bearing.

If dryer is not cooling, check that the noise is not coming from the ventilation fan.

Rollers and belt tensioner can also make noise.

OIL

It's usually by the blower.

It's the drive belt that goes around the dryer drum. I hope this helps! Good luck...

starting capacitor

top should pop off use screw driver to pry apart there are 2 clips on the corner then lid should lift up

TAKE THE DRYER APART USE A LITTLE MOTOR OIL TO GREASE ALL SHAFTS ON IDLER PULLEY AND USE A BIT OF VASALINE ON THE REAR BEARING ON THE BACK OF THE DRUM THIS SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THE GRINDING NOISE
