- Notes: Strong noises from the dryer suggest that the belt is worn out and the drum rollers or the blower wheel have become damaged. Thumping noises during operation require you to check drum rollers for possible replacement. The squeak of high-pitched tones indicates that either the motor bearing or belt needs replacement. Replace the blower wheel or tighten it to avoid additional damage when it shows cracks or looseness.
