Default dryer squeaks

The little idler wheels in the back of the drum are the usual suspect. Dry
silicone or graphite helps. For awhile.

Usually a PIA to get the dryer apart.

The drum on my Maytag dryer has begun to sqeak. What can I do to lube it?


Hi,

Model#, approx age??

The "drum" won't likely squeak...but the drum support wheels may. Belt
won't squeak either...idler pulley and motor are next common trouble
makers.

Lube -usually- won't last long and may attract dust/dirt. Replacing the
effected part(s) is usually best.
