    Question Kenmore Series 70 Elec Dryer making thumping noises

    Hello,

    My dryer is making a 'drying tennis shoes' type sound from start to finish. Haven't noticed any other problems with it though. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem might be and how to fix it??? Please note that I am a novice when it comes to fixing appliances, so please be kind!

    Model/stock # 66722690

    Please let me know if you need any other info!

    Thanks,
    JTStorm

    Hi,

    Model/stock # 66722690

    Drum support wheel is worn/broken, something caught inside of the drum baffles, chunk missing from the belt, something caught in the fan blower wheel ( bounce sheet, etc ) are some common trouble makers.

    Some take apart helps for the model(s) listed above....
