| I bought a new dryer this past weekend. I had to wire it obviously, so I put a dolly under it and put the dolly to the floor. Dryer face down, wired it and plugged it in. It had a ching-ching-ching sound to it, kinda like change in the dryer. Did I screw it up by turning it face down? Please help me, I don't know anything about dryers. |
| So today, I saw that in the back of the dryer, there is a thin steel plate screwed into the back wall of the tumbler. It was almost falling off. So I screwed it back in and that seemed to help with the ching-ching- ching sound. Now it's making a ert-ert-ert-ert sound. I guess, I'll just have to call in the warranty. Anymore idea's? Thank you for the suggestions guys. |

All white metal, loads from the front, knobs and dials in stuff. |
