Screeching noise and burn smell how do I open dryer to repair

Any burning smell is not good. Indicates that something in there is too hot and perhaps melting something. Could even catch fire......

Could very well be that whatever is responsible for the noise can be causing the problemo.

sounds like the service station siezed and the control circuit to the motor has burned out- common fault for this machine- unfortunately this means its cheaper to buy a new machine than it is to repair- sorry

Two things are likely going on here,1- something is dragging down your motor check for a twist in the belt, idler pulley bad, belt installed wrong or wrong belt. Also check your front drum felt and glides if the felt is bunched up that will drag down the motor. Now the smell you probably have some felt or lint in the burner clean it carefully you do not want to damage your igniter.

problem could be the gearcase or the motor, to find out remove the motor and turn it with your hands to hear any abnormal sounds coming out, and also try to smell the motor see if it has a burning smell

When i put clothers in my dryer it does not move and it make a sound when i push the start buttom

1)check for something stuck between drum and dryer housing 2)check for stuck vent flapper at exhaust opening outside 3) check dryer lint screen

The tension on the belts might be too low. They might not be properly aligned too.

Belt, and skid plates very easy to change and not much money

It sounds like your belt needs to be replaced. You're smelling the melting (burning) rubber.

How old is this dryer? If it is older that 15 years get a new one. You don't want to deal with the headaches. The motor may be going bad on it and the wiring could be melting. I assume it is not working now. Have him check the breakers. Make sure the connections are o.k. in the back. Clean out the lint piping and look for lint underneath it as well.
