DRYER BUZZING NOISE - Dryer For Sale

Sounds like a over heated motor which starts when the motor is cool but not after it runs and stop. Burning smell comes from the heated windings on the motor coils.
Make sure that the pully is not binding...which i doubt.

I would change the control thermostat. It is mounted next to the skinny white fuse on the filter housing under the dust cover on the back side.
I worked on a dryer like this that had a heat problem and wrote about it HERE

The buzz is probably coming from the control switch drive motor. If it is not turning the switch, the dryer wont run.

SOUNDS LIKE A MOTOR BUT SOMETHING COULD BE CAUGHT IN THE BLOWER WHEEL SHROUD

This dryer has a circuit board that controls virtually everything. If it makes a buzzing noise when you press the power button to turn on the control panel, it's probably not going to be an easy fix. When you hire a professional, you avoid buying expensive parts that you might not need, such as a control board. If it makes a loud buzzing noise when you press the start button, it's possible that it could be a motor or belt problem. But again, I'd recommend a service call for this one.

Hi,
It sounds like your motor has gone bad....it will buzz really bad when it is trying to start and cannot...

Asker's Testimonial " Thanks so much for your help. Now that you'v mentioned it, the buzzing does sound like it's coming from the motor. I'm,now, more comfortable in call " -

Sounds like something you will need a repair man for.Unless you are mechanically inclined it sounds like it's electrical.

The drive motor starting capacitor is likely dead. This can be tested if you are competent enough to take the thing apart and use an electronic multimeter. Otherwise it is a cheap part to replace, depending on how much the repair guy charges for labor and to be called out.
