Most likely a wheel bearing on the tub of a front loading washer, or the belt tensioner pulley on a top load washer. Either is not fixed by lubrication but replacement is called for. There are usually 3-4 wheels on front loaders that could be out. Replace all of them if you are going to replace one. The belt tensioner is a single assembly that can be ordered from any appliance parts warehouse or Sears.
Hi, Either the elements have blown, or it could be a device called a thermal overload which has popped. (There may also be a loose wire which connects to the heating elements). Have your drier checked out by a good handyman or technician. Best wishes, Graemevm
its the wrong seal. do not lubricate it at all rubber sweals with any kind of petrolium product.
many door boots look right for the model but will be thicker then needed. and will cause rubber to hit the basket.
HI thanks for your question. check the venting at the back. make sure the vent is clean. as this could cause this thanks the appliance doc. please rate my answer if happy with it.
Your problem is a bad rear drum seal-if these become worn, torn, or missing close can get caught torn or discolored in the space between the clothes drum and rear of the dryer. Replace the rear drum seal.
If the dryer model number begins with 417, the drum is supported by a ball bearing in back, and a seal and glides up front. Often, the bearing will become very dry, either from years of use, or from excessive lint blowing up into the bearing. If the bearing isn't cracked or otherwise noticeably bad, you can usually solve the issue simply by lubing the bearing with a high temp grease. While the machine is apart...(a major pain in the butt), make sure to check the condition of the seal and glides on the front panel, and replace the belt if it looks at all cracked or frayed. If this dryer is not a 417 and/or does not have a rear bearing, it's best to get a maintainance kit (belt, idler pulley and drum rollers) and install all the aforementioned parts, as they are the most likely source of screech. Also, check the motor by spinning the shaft manually with the belt off....if that is squeeking, it's motor time.
Washing machine works fine UNTIL spin cycle. Loud engaging sound and then it makes a squeek, squeek sound...not really a squeek, but if you were to listen to it, eee, eee, eee, eee, eee and loud.
