I have an older Maytag dryer that had acquired a squeak and decided to see if I could fix it. I took the front door off and the drum support and "partially" pulled the drum forward - just enough so that I could see two wheels. The one on the right seemed to be where the noise came from so I used some sewing machine oil and got rid of the squeak.

The problem is that I'm not sure if I put it back together correctly as now the drum won't turn!

I just pushed the drum back into position against the felt and then put the screws back in the drum support. Everything seemed to fit together alright, but I've missed something! I don't think I took it out far enough that the belt would have been involved, but what could it be?

The drum may not be seated over the right roller wheel and is binding,,,,

I can turn the drum and it moves. I felt for placement of the belt and it is fitting in the groove on the drum, but when I move the drum - the belt doesn't seem to be tight enough and therefore the drum is moving separate from the belt. I hope that makes sense. Thanks for the reply!
