Thanks

ugh...my dryer is very old. YEARS ago I replaced a pulley in it due to squeaking but that was so long ago, I forgot how I did it. Thus, I searched and found this video. I think I'll give the PB Blaster trick a shot first though I was able to find the idler pulley and rollers on a Sears part website.

[@CharlietheHandyman]

Check on Amazon too. Might be a little cheaper for the kit.

[@awshortclips]

@@CharlietheHandyman That is true, but then I may run into the issue you did of the part not fitting. The good thing about Sears, Maytag, and Whirlpool appliances is that there is a website where users can put in the model # and get an exploded view of everything that can be purchased. I've used that site before, and it's always spot-on, with no mismatched parts. However, before I do that, I'll use your trick. I'm sure it'll work, and I happen to have some of that PB Garage Door Blaster sitting around.

Good fix, that squeak can get annoying

[@CharlietheHandyman]

It was worse than nails on a chalk board. Thanks for watching!

[@Beardown2154]

Has yours started squeeking again? I wonder how long this fix can last?

[@CharlietheHandyman]

It hasn’t squeaked since I made this video. Almost a year later🤷🏻‍♂️

[@pricilag.lopezgonzalez6274]

Will my dryer worsen if i don’t get this fixed?

[@CharlietheHandyman]

It’s possible anytime it’s squeaky something is going on. Could squeaky for a long time and not breakdown or could squeak for a short and break down.

[@pricilag.lopezgonzalez6274]

@@CharlietheHandyman mine just started and I can’t afford to buy a new dryer so I’m stressed. 😭😭

[@CharlietheHandyman]

@pricilag.lopezgonzalez6274 it’s pretty simple to grease up the wheels. Just need some basic tools and take your time. Take pictures as you’re taking it apart so you can put it back together. You got this, I have faith.

You really should have done a better job of explaining the belt installation. This really didn’t tell me anything..sorry.
