My dryer makes a loud rumbling noise when running. Besides noise, the dryer is working very inefficiently, taking much much longer to dry items. I've replaced the belt and the felt pads that line the drum, to no avail. When I open the dryer, the noise continues for 1-3 seconds after the drum stops turning. Also, if I manually turn the drum I hear the noise. Could this be the motor, or possibly the blower fan?
Please help me!
Peace,
Mark

Give that man a Bud Light for the correct answer.
Very easy job and an inexpensive part.

Oh, how wonderfully easy that was! And cheap, too! Guess I didn't need to replace the belt and the pads, but they were pretty worn anyway.
Happy dryer!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So how do I buy you a beer?
Peace,
Mark
