    Squeaky Clothes Dryer
    I have a horribly squeaky (high pitch, mind altering squeak) Kenmore stackable dryer – model 417-98802890. I have read your other posts about squeaky dryers but the parts mentioned do not seem to exactly correspond to the ones in the parts list I have. I would love to be able to fix this myself, but the dryer is in a pretty tiny closet & I doubt that I can move it much at all – can I do this all from the front? ANY help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Hello,

    This problem sounds very similar to the problem I had... and yes you will need to "unstack" the units to safely repair the problem. Your problem is possibly the rear drum bearing. This is not very difficult to repair yourself.

Squeaky clothes dryer [ 2 Answers ]

I was reading your post in "squeaky clothes dryer" and I had a question. I have the same problem. I have an older model "Simplicity" gas dryer. I think that it is also the rear drum bearings, but how can I check to tell if that is actually the problem and if it is the problem how do I repair it...

Whirpool Model #DDE6500GALAD. I have removed the back access panel and can see the drum belt and two pulley wheels through which the belt is threaded. I do not see any way to tighten the belt or do not know how to replace the belt if it needs replacing. Any ideas??
