A loud squeaking sound coming from a dryer is not just an annoyance - it is often an early sign of mechanical wear that should not be ignored.

In this service case, the dryer began producing a sharp squealing noise every time the drum rotated, gradually becoming constant during the cycle.
After inspection, the issue was traced to a worn belt tensioner. This component is responsible for maintaining proper belt pressure and smooth drum movement. When it wears out, friction increases, strain builds up, and the dryer begins to operate noisily and inefficiently. Left unaddressed, this type of problem can lead to further damage to the belt, motor, or drum system.
Our technician replaced the faulty belt tensioner and checked the surrounding components to ensure proper alignment and movement. Once the repair was completed, the dryer returned to quiet, stable operation with normal performance restored.
