Dryer Making Loud Noises
Same-day diagnosis and repair for a dryer making loud thumping, squealing, or grinding noises in San Marcos, CA and North San Diego County.
Why a Dryer Makes Loud Noises
A dryer that thumps, squeals, or grinds during a cycle is signaling wear or an obstruction somewhere in the drum support or blower system. Worn drum support rollers produce a rhythmic thumping or squeaking as the drum rotates over a flat spot, growing louder as the roller wears further. A worn idler pulley bearing creates a higher-pitched squeal that changes with drum speed, since the pulley keeps tension on the drive belt as it turns. A loose or damaged blower wheel causes a rattling or scraping noise near the back of the dryer, often with reduced airflow as a side effect. A foreign object such as a coin, button, or underwire caught in the blower housing produces a sharp metallic clicking or grinding sound and can damage the blower wheel if left unaddressed.
