My Maytag Clothes Dryer has a squeak in it . After it is on for about 10 minutes it gets softer but it it is still there. Help!

Squeaking normally indicates a problem with the teflon gliders (replace gliders) or with the drum bearing (replace dryer). You can not economically replace the drum bearing.

You have to do a little research here.

To check what is going on in your dryer :

Remove the rear panel, and have a look as to what is going on.
Check the drive belt : is it frayed?
Is the drum running against something?
Does anything look lose or broken?

Please be careful : do not touch anything while the dryer is connected to the power.

If you can not find anything, remove the power - take the power cable out of the socket and put it on to the ground.
Note down how the belt is connecting the drum and motor.
Remove the belt (by taking away the tension from the belt this is easy).
Spin the motor a couple of times by hand, as fast as possible. Is it running freely? No squeaking?
Spin the (empty) drum a couple of times by hand, as fast as possible. Is it running freely? Is it squeaking? Than check the teflon "gliders" between the drum and the door window.
If these are OK, than check the drum bearing.

Also spin the motor a couple of times by hand, as fast as possible. Is it running freely?
Of course you can also come back to the board and discuss your findings!

Success !
