Unhappy Maytag dryer help
Model Number: MDE9606AYW   Brand: Maytag   Age: 5 - 10 years   

Hello!
My Maytag electic Intellidry dryer makes a screeching metal-on-metal sound on-and off.
How do I open the lid to look inside?
What are a few possible sources of the noise?

Maytag Bob

Hi Bob,

Remove the one screw from each door hinge and remove the door.

Remove the two screws on other side of the door frame.

Grab the top of the front panel on each side, pull and turn it from inside out to release it from the clip. Pull the top of the front panel toward yourself to release from the bottom clips.

Remove the screw on top on each side held the security hook. Remove the security hooks.

Remove the two screws on each side held the shroud. Remove the shroud.

Remove the belt from the motor pulley and pull out the drum.

Inspect the idler pulley, the drum support rollers (on the back), the belt and the drum bearings (in the front) for wear and/or damages.

Check the blower wheel.

Replace all worn out and/or damaged parts. Clean the dryer inside.

- The part number for the bearing kit is AP4037304

- The part number for the drum support roller is AP204721

- The part number for the belt is AP285924

- The part number for the idler pulley is AP285227

- The part number for the blower wheel is AP285234

Here are the break down diagrams for the Maytag dryer Model MDE9606AYW

Gene.
