Dryer model lgs37awf is making alot of noise when turning

Take the dryer cover off somehow. Chances are your belt may be wearing out, or a belt tension pulley may need lubricating. There are also rollers I believe the "drum" travels on. You'll know alot more with the cover off. Good Luck!

Go to Partselect.com. they will ask for model number and serial number of your dryer. They have every single little part for appliances but better yet they have video's on how to make the repairs. They also have schematics for every conceivable appliance made. the prices are very reasonable and the customer service is top notch!


Mine was making alot of noise too. It turned out to be bad drum idler wheels and a worn belt. I got all of the parts at Partselect and I watched a video on how to make the repair. great website!

That model of neptune dryer had a problem with the blower housings cracking. When the housing cracks, it binds forward into the blower wheel making a loud "rumble" noise and vibration. If you open the door and manually turn the drum and you hear a rubbing noise and feel alot of resistance, then you have a cracked blower housing and need to replace it. It is not an easy job to replace, so if your not familiar with dryers, you should have a technician replace it. Let me know if you have any further questions. shane

check the felt around the inside of the door to see if it needs to be replaced

yes the rollers can wear down and make alot of noise I believe there are 2 on yours.

Did you remove the shipping bolts from the back of the machine
