We have a Maytag dryer that began incessent chirping today. It's driving the
wife crazy. Any suggestions where to start?

Thanks in advance.


Two ideas:
1) Support rollers (most likely)


I'll go with idler pulley as #2.

2) Motor (less likely).


If I was pulling it apart, first I'd buy the support rollers- idler
pulley & some lube. [get it from the parts place- it is a special
high-temp lube that doesn't attract lint]

Once it's apart they are fairly cheap and easy to install.
