Look to see if you have the little access panel on the back,you can remove this and have access to the belt and pulley system,if not there let me know and we'll try something else-mike

I have a stacked Frigidaire FEZ831CA washer/dryer combo and when running the dryer it makes a very high pitched (AND LOUD) screeching sound. Any ideas as to what might be the problem? Thanks, Sean

screeching sound
Sean, Bad felt gasket body to drum, if belt drive on dryer, it could be worn and slipping, making a screech, or if not the belt, the drum may have a worn bearing on its hub allowing it to run crooked and rub where it should not.
Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

I think a overloaded the washer and it wouldnt spin.

Frigidaire washer will not take a overloaded tub without causing belt problems.
Unplug the washer.
Remove the 2 screws on the very bottom of the front washer panel.
Slide the front panel down slightly and remove it from the cabinet.
Inspect the belt around the motor pulley and transmission.
If it is worn at all it needs replacing.
You could plug the washer back in and set it to Spin cycle and watch for the motor to turn and the belt slipping to verify a bad belt.
Keep your hands,fingers and tools away from all moving parts.

Need belt for stackable frigidaire washer and dryer. Model is FEX831CS The washer jerked and threw a breaker. Now the dryer won't work and the washer lets water run in and the inside starts jerking hard

If you think that the washing machine belt is the cause of your troubles you can find it in the very bottom of the machine (behind the front panel)
Would need more info on the dryer problem, (Is it running with no heat or not running at all)
the washer drive belt is the only easy fix on this model.
Good Luck

My dryer is making a very loud skreeching noise. it sounds like metal on metal. What could that be?

belt is probably off the drum. Take the back off and put the belt back on unless the pulley is bad then you can replace the pulley.

How do I replace the washer belt

Remove the front panel to the washer. Screws across the bottom. Push down on the front panel, then pull it out. Belt should go around transmission, motor pulley and tension roller.
