Hello Niah, I've noticed my Samsung dryer is making an unusual noise when the drum turns. Can you help me figure out what might be wrong?
Of course, I'd be happy to assist you with that. Could you please describe the noise? Is it a thumping, grinding, or squealing noise? How frequently does it occur?
It’s a consistent grinding noise every time the drum turns. It seems to be getting louder over time.
I see, a grinding noise could suggest an issue with a worn out or damaged part. It may be that the drum support rollers are worn out or the bearing is broken which can cause such a noise. Do you have any experience in inspecting or repairing appliances?
I do not have experience repairing appliances. Do you think this is something I could manage on my own, or should I get a professional to look at it?
It's typically recommended to hire a professional for appliance repairs, especially if you're not experienced. They have the tools needed to inspect and repair the dryer safely. However, in the meantime refrain from using the dryer as it might cause more damage.
