If i turn it on with no clothes in it, it won't make any noise.. I think the noise is coming from the right front top side.... that's were i hear it when i try to see were the noise is coming from... We sprayed WD-40 on the belt and the noise wasn't as loud any more... You could barely hear it....But after a dry or two it started with them same noise... Sometimes the noise gets louder than other times while its drying... I was going to buy the new belt but then i have read that it could be a lot of other things causing this noise.. What parts should I buy and replace to stop the Squeaking? What could be causing the squeaking??

In your case the top has to come off first to do so. Then you will slots where these pads slip into, and the drum rides on them to make a nice smooth ride. Yours are either worn, or gone. There are 2 different pads on your model, and there are 2 of each. The part #s are WE1M481, and WE1M333. Tom ApplianceEducator.com
