Doubt if squeak is related to not drying. if you are getting heat (you say heating element is ok) take out condensor and hose it down till thoroughly free of lint. check appliance has adequate ventilation as well

Constant loud squeaking

Squeaking is normally caused by a bad bearing or a slipping drum belt.

Squeaking

I have worked on some dryers of my own. The first thing I do is either purchase or go to the library and look at the maintenance/repair manual. These manuals have trouble shooting sections that are very helpful. Also, google it. I found several sites that appear to be very helpful. Squeaking is usually dry bearings some located in the rear of the unit, worn belt, worn carrier bearings or belts.

Check your vent it may be stopped up this will cause the top to get overly hot and the bearing to squeak

Squeaking Kenmore Stackable Dryer

Your rear drum bearing has worn through the plastic and is now hitting the metal support underneath it,
soon it will act like a guillotine and slice of the ball, the drum will fall backwards into the heating element and short to ground causing the fuse to blow the heater element to burn intwo and the whole thang will be dead in the water.

A Squeak

Hi.
Could be dry drum bearing or jockey pulley dearing. take the rear cveroff the back of the dryer, and you will see the rear drumshaft and bearing.
Squirt some wd40 on the bearing, hopefully.this will cure the squeak.

My Dryer squeeks while rinning

If it is a constant squeak no ups or downs then its the bearings in the motor that turns the drum. If the sound is not monotone, meaning up and down squeaks, then the drum is rubbing something foreign.

Kenmore Dryer Model 110.888029 Serial MH1102412 Type 180.00

MOST LIKELY PROBLEM IS A RESTRICTION IN THE EXHAUST. DISCONNECT THE VENT FROM THE BACK OF THE DRYER AND TRY DRYING ONE LOAD. IF IT DRIES O.K.,
THERE IS A RESTRICTION IN THE EXHAUST. CLEAN THE LINT OUT FROM THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF DUCT WORK.

GE DBXR463GB Gas Dryer is squeaking loudly when it runs

one of 2 things can be wrong. Back bearing if bad will sound like a bird chirpping, front bearing glide will be more constant squeek. both need to be fixed by experienced tech.

Over-oiled Hunter Original ceiling fan When I tried to I oil one of my Hunter Original fans for the first time, I obviously did not understand how you measure the oil in the reservoir and, long story short, I added too much oil. I wiped as much of it out of the light fixture as I could, and when I noticed there was oil dripping from the end of the pull chains for the fan and the light, l wrapped pieces of an old rag around the end of each rubber bands to hold the fabric onto the chains. I then put the fabric wrapped chain ends in small ziploc bags and sealed them either side of the chain so they wouldn't fall off. All this was to prevent oil from continuing to drip onto my kitchen table as it had originally. They've been like that for what's probably been 6 to 8 months as I believe the over-oiling incident happened last fall. I haven't really tried to do anything about it until now when it's starting to get to the point here in the Florida Panhandle where I'd really like that fan above my kitchen table to work. But I'm afraid to turn it on because I've read that oil would get all over the flywheel if you to put too much oil in the reservoir, and it would spray out everywhere if you turned on the fan. I didn't worry about it over the winter although I do sometimes reverse them and use them when it's really cold out but we didn't even have that cold a winter so I pretty much ignored it until now. I'm pretty sure there's no more oil coming out of the fan down the pull chains because the small amounts of oil captured in the ziploc bags certainly hasn't increased and I think some of it has actually evaporated because it seems like there's less than there was earlier although it's not like I've measured it. I will, of course, start by measuring the oil in the reservoir. I wonder if it's possible some of it has evaporated. And I was wondering whether if it's still overfilled I might be able to suck out some of the oil with an eyedropper. But the question about there possibly being oil on the flywheel is still kind of freaking me out. Is there any way I can deal with this without having to take down the fan? I simply can't do that myself because it's way up high and they are too heavy for me to hold while standing way up on a I had an electrician install all my 4 Hunter Original fans for that reason. I can call an electrician to care of this if I need to, but I'm hoping I won't need to. Does anyone out there have experience with this situation and what I can do to help get my fan working before it gets even hotter out here in the Florida Panhandle? Is my idea of sucking oil out of the reservoir with an eye dropper, for example, legitimate? Is it possible oil that got on the flywheel has evaporated over time, or that the oil which slowly ran down the pull chains came from the area where the flywheel is and that perhaps there's no more to fly out of the fan if I turn it on? Does anyone know how much oil that little oil reservoir holds or how deep it is? That's all the questions I can think of for now. I hope someone who might read this has the knowledge to help me. I looked all over online and all I could find was about how to add oil - the exact opposite of what I want to do! I should note that I haven't called the Hunter Fan Company because it's not like these fans are under warranty, I don't think as I bought all four of mine on eBay. I guess I have paperwork with the model numbers and that sort of thing but I thought I'd start here because it's easier and friendlier than many customer service personnel are.
