What a fantastic forum! I am so glad to have found it.

My dryer is making a strange noise. It starts about two minutes after the flame ignites. (no noise on air fluff).

The noise starts at the 0:08 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4MSol832NE

I checked continuity on the high limit and cycling thermostats. Replaced drum rollers, pulley wheel and glides. Blower wheel seems fine.

Thank you for any help you can provide!

I hear 2 noises going on in there. One sounds like it's electronic related almost like a relay and the other sounds like a normal tumbling sound. I wouldn't of thought it would be rollers. Very strange sound to say the least.

Thank you for your reply! I actually took that video before replacing the above mentioned parts, so the tumbling is much quieter now, but the noise that starts at 0:08 is still there. It is definitely heat related since it only happens a couple minutes after it fires up. It will continue when the flame goes out though (cool down cycle) so it is not related to the gas valve (?).
