Default Dryer makes loud rubbing noises
Brand: Frigidaire
Age: 1 - 4 years

Hello all. My dryer (Frigidaire FER341AC0) is making a loud humming noise a few minutes after start-up. I tore into it (Not too hard, since I replaced the heating coil a month ago) and think I narrowed it down to the motor bearings.

Even with the belt off I still get the noise(even louder) when I plug the motor in and turn it on. Online price for the motor assy is 125.00, but I didn't know if those bearings were replaceable, or sealed from the factory.

(I can't seem to find a price on bearing, so maybe that's a hint?)

Thanks for any help.

Adam

Hi,

The motor can not be repair and will have to be replaced.
