Dryer Repair

Chef Jason Hill is saving a ton of money on dryer repair by replacing the support rollers himself. What a fun weekend project! After this appliance DIY project, he'll go back to make cooking videos.

The belt that goes around the drum also passes through the motorized wheel. This wheel is usually suspended and is clipped in by a metal fastener. I first place the drum in place with the belt on the drum, then place the belt through the motorized wheel. Hope this helps.

Do I see a plastic type dryer duct attachment at the 25 second mark? That should really be rigid aluminum. Looks like a fire hazard waiting to happen. Be Safe!

Thanks for the tip. I have always used this vinyl vent tubing and never had a problem. Is there a web site that post stats on fire starts due to this tubing?

Thanks for sharing your solution. My dryer is doing this on and off. You just saved me a few hundred dollars! God bless you kind sir. :)

Good luck! It really was pretty easy to fix. Saved myself quite a few bucks doing it myself!

Hey, my hat's off to you, I was searching videos about dryers, and came across this, my dryer is making that EXACT same noise. I checked another vid and it seems like this repair shouldn't give me much of a headache, so I'm going to tackle it. I'm so lazy, I have a newer and better dryer in my garage lol
