Whirlpool Duet Dryer - Squeaking Fix

My Whirlpool dryer was making an awful squeaking noise whenever it was running. In this video I show how to find the cause of the noise and also how to fix it.

    Thank you! My model is older and looked different in the back so I went through the front via another video for that part. But your video was crucial because it gave me the view of the belt and idler I needed to be able to take the belt off, replace the idler and put the belt back on. The view is limited from the front. 😅

    Would you happen to have the confirmation email that has the part number of the whirlpool replacement part?

    It's silly, but I can't find the order confirmation email. I've searched for whirlpool, pulley, wheel. Nothing comes up. If I remember correctly, when I bought the part, I did a google search on the whirlpool model number. I found somebody that had a schematic with part numbers.

    Great Video: What was the parts number on your video. I have the same dryer and I am having a hard time finding the parts on your video. I have to replace the belt too, could you help me with that?

    Take a look at www.partselect.com. You'll have to type in your model number. I like this site the best so far because it has assembly schematics that allow you to see where the part goes and make sure you're buying the correct one.

    You removed the belt and spun the drum, please explain how you were supposed to indicate the motor bearings or what the purpose was without the belt? Just curious

    When I spun it by hand the first time, the only thing I was checking was the drum wheels/bearings. If it still squeaked when the belt was disconnected, we’d know it was the drum and not the tensioner pulley or the motor bearings. But, you’re right. I didn’t eliminate the possibility of the issue being the motor bearings. I basically moved forward on faith that it was the tensioner pulley and not the motor bearings.

    Is yours also a gas dryer? I don't mean to insult you, but if you disconnected the gas to do this project, did you turn it back on?

    I have a problem with the dryer that looks like the one on the video that you show. The lights come on, dial in the instruments are set but when I hold down to press start. It does not start to turn on. The only difference is that the sensing light comes on. Any help
