Consumer Question: Noisy Dryer Danger


Hi, Joe,


I have a squeaky dryer that keeps getting louder. What can I do? I sprayed belt dressing on the dryer belt, but it didn't help. It's a Frigidaire Model FER231ASO and it is about 9-10 years old. 


Thanks,
Corey

A: Hi, Corey,

Thanks for your note.

A dryer making noises is a huge fire hazard. Stop using it until it is repaired!


There are drum rollers and an idler pulley which could need replacing. The front panel comes off and then you can check these parts.

Regards,
Joe Gagnon
