When my dryer starts and at periods during running it squeals like a stuck pig. I have had the dryer rollers/cylinder assembly changed three times at my expense. Which causes it to quit for a while. Appliance repairman said these dryers are prone to do that, lucky me! I have the part to repair the dryer but where do I get instructions to do so? At this point I would never buy a Maytag appliance again.

Well, first of all the Maytag techs are not correct. Even if the dryer is prone to roller failure it should not do so three times in less than five years. Something else is going on here, which you need to find or you will just be making repairs constantly until the real problem manifests itself in a failure.

Please post your model number, and let's see what we have.

I received a reply but the individual wants to know the model # etc of my Maytag dryer. model # SDE4606AYW sn#12771448ED Hopefully this is helpful.

Ok, here is the service manual which will explain how to fix your dryer.

Again, let me emphasize that when you take this apart you need to try to find out what is causing this, or else this will just be a regular procedure.

Good luck and let us know what you find when you tear down the machine.

I have the same dryer and same noise problem but when i clicked on the link you sent for the manual, i got "page not found". Would you be so kind as to re-post the link to the manual for the Maytag dryer # SDE4606AYW ? THANK YOU

Unfortunately Maytag has taken away free and open access to the their tech and repair manuals so I cannot link you to them.

Here is another source for that manual

You may have to join the site to download the manual but it is free and has lots of manuals for all appliance types.
