- How I fixed the squeaking noise on my Samsung Dryer. If you have a Samsung dryer making noise such as ticking, squeaking or squealing noise, your roller or tension bearings are probably worn out. I show step by step how to take the dryer apart and remove and reinstall the rollers, tensioner and belt.

*NOTE 1: A Lot of parts in the dryer are are sharp, especially panel edges!* *NOTE 2: When re-installing the Drum, avoid touching/bending the electrical connectors on the right side heater element.* Keep belt & drum away from the connectors when re-installing. *Note 3: The water hookup is to the COLD water, not hot.*

Just installed the repair “kit” for my Samsung dryer. With the assistance from this excellent video, I was easily able to get my dryer up and running, even after the pulley arm had totally fallen apart and the dryer stalled. All of the parts were easy to replace, thanks to the clear step-by-step video guide. Thank you for talking the time to produce this superb tutorial. Saved me from spending big bucks for a repair service.
Thank you for the great step by step video. Sears wanted 500 bucks to fix the dryer. I needed the 17 mm socket wrench which I got for 3 bucks and the kit from Amazon was 35, and 3 hours of my time ( I’m slow at age 73) but got it done thanks to you.
Wow, great!
I'm going to piggy back to your reply - and yes!! Amen!! - service repair wanted $395, and a new dryer was $650 - I'm older and a bit slow, but did exactly the same thing - bought the socket and repair kit from Amazon, two hours later it was finished and working great! Awesome video!! Very detailed, which was much appreciated!
Thank You is all I have to say for this video. Not only for making this video, but how detailed the video is and the fact that you have also included a list of parts that you used, which is I was able to cross reference and make sure they fit my model dryer as well. Took me about $40 or so dollars in parts and less than 3 hours for disassemble, cleaning, repair and reassemble. Thank You again!!!
I want to thank you for putting this together, my dryer was making a banging noise and I searched and ordered parts and then found your video and was glad to see you had the same parts. Followed all your steps and was able to do this all by myself. Thank you!
Fantastic step-by-step instruction! A repair guy charged me $180 only to tell me we needed to “load less clothes.” I now realize he was just lazy.
Last Friday my wife told me to go to Lowe’s and buy a new one. I found this video while sitting in the parking lot, saved me at least $800. Thank you!
You gotta be more firm with somebody that does nothing and wants $180. Next time ask what they'll charge to give an estimate BEFORE they come. If it's not free, tell them not to come. If nobody will come for free, at most I'd pay $50 for an estimate... but really an estimate will never be $180!!
Of course he didn't fix anything, why fix anything when you can go house to house and get $180 without doing anything.
Good thing you fixed it yourself.
My dryer used to sound like it was about to launch to space. Bought the repair kit off Amazon and used your video for the disassemble, replacing the parts and reassemble. It saved a lot of time and $$. Thank you for the great video and instructions.
Thank you, I have never done a repair and replacement of parts to any equipment but by following your video I was able to fix the noisy dryer, really appreciate your great work. You saved me couple of hundreds and have sense of satisfaction by fixing it. The edges of the panels are sharp and need to be really careful, THANK YOU SO MUCH 😊
Thanks so much. One of the best repair videos I’ve ever seen. The instructions were easy to understand, very complete, the camera-work was excellent. The only time I got in trouble was when I forgot to follow your instruction (drum orientation, tensioner spring). The replacement wheels had a different sized nut from the OEM wheels but otherwise was exactly as you described. Thanks again.
Fantastic video. Step-by-step instructions that were so easy to follow. Made what appeared to be a daunting maintenance activity really easy. I was really afraid I was going to struggle getting the drum back in, but, with a bit of patience, was not all that difficult. Thank you for taking the time to help so many others.
You're welcome!
Although there were a couple of differences with my dryer, I was able to take it apart and check all of the likely problem spots. It turned out that the blower fan was caked with lint and I think that was the source of the noise. A thorough cleaning followed and it seems that all is well once again. Thank you for your video. It was surprisingly easy to take all apart and re-assemble. I shudder to think what it would have cost me to get a repair man in.
This video was unbelievably helpful! I tried watching 3 other similar videos, and this was by far the easiest to follow.
This took me exactly 3 hours, but I would have been done quicker if I wouldn’t have dropped the final screw for the front panel into the dryer right before finishing. Haha
Local appliance company wanted $180 just to come out and look at it. Highly recommend just using this video!
THANK YOU SO MUCH. 2 hours and $40 and we’re back in business! Very helpful. Step by step instructions were spot on.
Great job! Glad the video helped.
This is by far the best instructional video for repair I have watched on UA-cam. Thank you for showing the step by step process.
You're welcome!
Still so helpful 5 years later, you saved me buying a new dryer, thank you!
I wanted to let you know thank you for the video. It helped me so much. I bought a complete tune up package from Amazon . I had broken wheels , belt was all cracked about to rip and the tension wheel was broken off. I followed your steps and now runs like a champ. My dryer is 13 years old . Thanks once again.
Thank you so much for the great video. We have the same model as you do and we just finished changing the rollers and belt/tensioner etc. Of note: The nuts that came with the new rollers are 9/16, not 17mm and the threads are different on the new rollers. Everything else worked fine. The front rollers are fine, just the back rollers were shredded. Thanks again!
Flawless video. Absolutely perfect. I hope you’ve got affiliate links set up for that repair kit, and if so enjoy the commission. It was well earned. Two rollers and the pulley were what was making mine squeal like a banshee. Took me ~1 hour. Thanks so much👍🏻👍🏻
This video is spot on! My dad and I worked on this together and got it done. Directions were very clear and I feel accomplished getting this done.
Be careful of the edges, they are sharp.
Check the direction of the spring before you take it out. We confused ourselves a couple of times.
That front panel clips were stuck and hard to remove so make sure not to break them.
Getting that right back roller off was hard because of how it’s situated but watching the video and how he angled his tool in the back was helpful.
Thank YOU for this video. I had a technician quote me $400 ($230 for the kit) to repair so I decided I was going to just buy a dryer until someone told me to check UA-cam for videos to see if we could work through this instead of buying one. Thank You! Money well saved!
Awesome! Glad you got it done. Thanks for the comment.
This is it!! You my friend, saved me. I ordered the parts, got super frustrated at putting the belt back on,, and fixed my dryer. Last dude charged me $340. I did this in an evening. Buy a friend a beer and have them help. You don't need them that much but it will help with the belt.
Amazing video! This was the exact issue my dryer was having. It was going to be a two week wait for a repair tech so I called around for parts - which were going to cost over $300! I came across your video and ordered a parts kit off of Amazon for $59.99 (CDN). Thanks to your easy to follow steps I now have a dryer that’s working like new!!!
Nice! Great to hear you got it fixed!
Excellent video. Just did my dryer and your instructions were spot on. Thank you.
Aboslutely the best detailed "how to" video I have ever watched. Thank you!
Awesome Video! Super detailed and easy to follow. Had the dryer running in no time and it runs as good as new
Awesome detail. Very easy to to follow along. One of the best DIY videos I've ever seen. Thanks!
This was one of the best instructional videos I have ever seen. Great Job!
Just fixed my dryer with this helpful tutorial and the recommended kit from Amazon, whisper quiet now!!! Thank you so much! Took me 2 hours and 1 cut on my pinky finger, lol.
Awesome! Glad it helped.
Wow! the hubs and I repaired our dryer....we could not have done it without this video. the instructions were excellent! i'm a subscriber now! you saved us a lot of money. thank you!
Awesome, Glad it helped!
Had to replace the drum wrapper in our DVE45M5500P/A# dryer. This video was incredibly helpful with the step-by-step instructions to take the dryer apart. THANK YOU!
2 hours, top to bottom, with tablet running this video nearby - awesome instructions. I also appreciate the calm and steady demeanor and clear video. My dryer was a different model but close enough - and I plan to follow this channel from now on. Great job!
Thanks that's great to hear! I'm glad the video helped and you got it fixed!
Thank you so much for this incredibly detailed, easy to follow tutorial. We were able to follow along and replace the parts ourselves, saving hundreds of dollars. You are awesome!!
Just want to say thank you for making such a smooth easy to follow guide to changing these out. It took me no time at all to take apart but mannnnnn those roller nuts are rough, at one point I almost just left the back ones because I found my tensioner pulley was the cause but finally got the back rollers and took about a hour and a half start to finish. Cheers!
You're very welcome!
This was absolutely the best video I have ever seen for doing a project on youtube!!!
Thank you for making such a great video! The step by step instructions were perfect and helped me fix my noisy dryer.
This video is much appreciated! Got the ol dryer back up and a running, thanks very much!
Great video! Thank you! The rear rollers and the tensioner pulley were the source of my squeaks. Some of my bolts and clips were a little harder to take off than it appeared in the video, and I would recommend using gloves of some sort. The sheet metal inside is similar to a razor’s edge. I have a few cuts on my hands and I may have cursed a couple of times, but there was something about the way you talked that soothed me back to sanity. Thank you again. $33 repair kit on Amazon and about two hours is what it took me.
Thanks, glad you got it fixed and it all worked out.
Thank you !!! ... Your video was great , ordered the parts ($37), Amazon delivered overnight, got if fix next day ! ... You Rock !
Thank you very much for taking the time to make such a well detailed vidéo. I never would have thought that I would be able to fix it myself, yet I did by following your video. One point I really like is all the "don't forget to..." which I would have forgotten if not for that mention. One tip for the others, clearly identify which screws came from which part. I took it apart, then order the parts and waited a few days before reinstalling it. Good thing that my wife made me put the screws in many well identified bags.
Good tip! She was right.. Glad you got it working.
Thank you for the content! This helped me fix our dryer and saved my family some serious $$$.
Thanks to this awesome step by step video (take apart and put together) i was confident enough to take upon this task and just finished installing the parts. Everything works A1! Thx ( I feel like a donation for your assistance is in order) you saved me $$$
Thank you so much for your step-by-step instructions! For $37 and a couple of hours we fixed my dryer. I almost scrapped it by you saved me. Again, thanks!
Fantastic! Glad it helped.
Thank you so much for this precise step by step. You saved me a huge headache!
Absolute Legend! No extra nonsense and great details. Super helpful. Really appreciate you making this.
😀Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad the video was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much. One of the best repair videos I’ve ever seen. The instructions were easy to understand, very complete, the camera-work was excellent.
Great to hear!
Best how to video I've ever used. Your instructions were on point. Easy to follow and your break down was perfect. Thank you so much. If you have a Samsung dryer that needs repaired this is the one to watch.
I'd like to state that during the rear bulk rollers were a pain to take off. I had to take out the rear drum brace to get mine off. I watched another video to disconnect my steam sprayer and had to get it from the back all but 1 roller wouldn't come off so I resorted to taking it off. But used this video from start to finish. You saved me about $200. Thanks man. Appreciate it. Keep making more videos!
Thank you! Yes I know some people are not able to grab the nut behind and end up removing the back.. I thought it was easy enough, but I think some dryers are a bit different than others. Glad it helped and you got your dryer back!
@@CleverFix We did the same repair and removed the rear bulkhead. I would have tried your method, but did not have a wrench like you used. We didn't replace the belt tension roller and we still have a bit of noise.
@@timkr66 It's definitely recommended to change all parts, especially the tensioner. But now that you know how, it will be easy next time.
I had the same issue with one of my rear rollers. I couldn’t get it removed as it appeared Hercules tightened it on. Took the back panel off to get to it. My drum rollers were in good shape. My tensioner froze up and the belt burned through the roller. I can’t believe the belt didn’t break.
Appliance repair people refused to service my dryer because it was stacked in a closet. With your video and a $36 tensioner & belt, I did it without even taking the unit out of the closet! Thanks for this awesome video, you're a lifesaver.
Awesome, Great job! Glad it helped.
Thank you!!! What a great help this was. Saved us a lot of money too. Very kind of you to take the time to make it. Thanks again!
Just repaired last night step by step thank you! I had to use a flat metal tree support to reach and dislodge the control panel and also unscrewed the back of the dryer off to make it easier to change the rollers. Without this video I'd call a repairman or buy a new one so thank you!!
Nice work!
Awesome details Sir !!! Wife and I did it together in a couple hours. Yay !!!
Thank you so much
Ordered kit from Amazon (get the upgraded version) and changed everything
Tip 1). Be careful taking control panel off
I broke two plastic tabs but it still went back on ok and tight
Tip 2) - put screws on separate pieces of paper with descriptions of the parts they go with
3) to put the belt on the tensioner
Do it the way you did it but do it from back of dryer - was quick and easy
Saved me spending $1,000 for a new one
So very much appreciated
Great step by step video. This was very helpful and easy to follow. Saved me a repair call and I learned something along the way. Thanks!
God bless you!! The repairman was booked 4 days out and the laundry was piling up. I overhauled my entire dryer with a $35 kit from Amazon. You saved me $200+ and a trip to the laundry mat.
Nice job!!
You’re the man!! I had this done in no time!
Thank you!
I do not know your name but let me thank you. I follow your instructions, changed a bad roller and so far the dryer runs smooth. The most complicated part was to install the new tension pulley and the band because in my dryer you cannot uninstall the back. Thank you again.
Thanks very much for posting this! Followed your excellent instructions and got my pulley and one busted roller fixed up in no time. Greatly appreciated!
Nice! Glad it helped.
Excellent video - everything was spot on and helped my wife and I with this job. Thanks!
Great video. Watched step by step. With my wife working on the top side me work on the bottom completed the job at a slow and easy pace in less than an hour and a half. My wife just pointed we are talking about fixing the dryer. Lol. And boy are we tired
Cool, good video. My issue was the tensioner it had ceased up. Got it done in about 2 hours, thanks!
Today I fixed my dryer myself! In my case, the dryer turned on and heated, but the drum would not spin. The belt was broken. I watched this informative video twice and decided to try to make the repair myself. A kit was purchased from Amazon for $35 which contained more parts than I needed. Turned out the rollers did not need to be replaced. At each step, I watched the video and then completed the step myself. I thought the drum would be heavy, but it was very lightweight. Instead of sliding the belt on the drum after positioning the belt on the pully, I followed a recommendation from another UA-camr named 'wagslick' and went in from the back. It was super easy. Thank you so much for the well-produced video. It saved me lots of money, and I can now add 'appliance repair technician' to my resume. Ha!
Nice work! A few people have had to go in from behind, good to know.
Well done and right to the point. Very well scripted and easy listening voice. Thank you, Mike
Thank you very much for your step-by-step details and advice as you made you presentations i replace exactly the kit except thw spring.
You helped me saved from paying someone to do it by an appliance repair company could have cost hundreds.
And maybe close to a thousand if I Had to buy a new dryer. 👍🏼 👍🏼
Thank you for your detailed video. I used your link to buy a new tension pulley (my one had cracked and broken off). I followed along with your video and had my dryer up and running like new!
Nice, Great job!
Thank you for this video. I was able to fix my dryer and save getting a new one.
Your instructional video saved me $350!! Thank you for such a detailed video you made the repair very easy!!
You're welcome!
Thank you for such an incredibly informative video! Was quoted $250-$300 CDN for the fix but ended up spending $40 for the Drum rollers, ultimately only needed 1 but didn’t want to chance it and changed all 4! Thank you thank you !!!!
Nice! Glad the video helped. I also could've left the 3 also, but surely if one is gone, the others are ready to go as well.. They are very low quality rollers.
You’re so right ! Thanks for the helpful advice, might as well change them exactly ! Just an eventuality !
The best step by step video. Thanks
Thank you a million times. Your Instructions saved me time and money. Had to only clean the blue rollers. They were dirty (used w40)
Glad it helped! I really recommend replacing if you're doing so much work, but hopefully they last for you. Opening this dryer many times is not advisable, the sheet metal wears out and screws strip eventually if you're not very careful when tightening.
Thank you for your detailed instructions to tackle this job. It took me about 5-6 hours with a few breaks to put bandages on when I'd cut my finger on the cheap sheet metal. I can't believe a $2000 washer/dryer is a piece of crap.
Just letting you know people are still getting use out of this video! Just finished replacing my belt and it runs like a dream now. Thank you - I used your links to get the parts 👍
Wow that's amazing! Thanks for using the link, and I'm glad you got it fixed.
Thank you so much for posting this video. It was very clear and helped me save hundreds of dollars by repairing my dryer myself.
You're welcome! Glad it helped.
Excellent video. This and $50 on Amazon for parts and my dryer is super quiet again. Medium difficulty on the rear roller replacement and reinstalling the belt/drum.
Brother, I can’t say “THANK YOU” enough! Such an incredible video, with great detailed instructions and fantastic filming. You saved me a few hundred bucks and it only took a couple hours to fix. Thanks again!
Glad it was helpful!
Same here. I just fixed my dryer today. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
First class “how to video “. Thank you!
Just changed all of that because of your video man. Thank you!
Nice work! Glad you got it fixed.
Great step by step video. Thank you for saving me a lot of money.
Thank you so much for this video, my husband and I were able to fix the squeaking noise in our dryer with your help! Thank you for making this video! 🙏🏽
Fantastic! Glad you got it working.
Thank you, I really appreciated, your instructions was clear and very helpful.
Best step by step tutorial of any video. 👍🏾👍🏾
Glad it was helpful! I appreciate the comment, and thanks for watching!
Wow, I followed your video and fixed my dryer. Saved some $$$$ too. Thank you for making such a great video.
You're welcome!
Awesome video, straightforward instructions. Thanks for posting!
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU!!! Great video very thorough well spoken. Thanks again
Thank you for the step by step instruction, everything went perfectly!
Great, Glad it helped!
Excellent video. Thank you for making this.
We followed the steps - great pictures and instructions! The idler was shot and one wheel not running smoothly (we changed them all). We put the dryer back together, all went well. Our dryer has a wobble now - any suggests. Feet all appear level and in good shape.
The removable panel wheels were tough to undo but a lil wd 40 helped, the belt is a pain in the ass but I kept doing it until I got it. Dryer is smooth as new. Thank you.
this helped me out so much, i really appreciate the time you took to make this video. this is exactly the issue with mine
Thanks for the comment, glad it helped! 😀
Thanks for the great step by step video.....was able to take the squeak out of ours by oiling up the roller spindles and tensioner bushing. Also note....the tin on the top ledge of the door is razor sharp so be careful
Nice job! Good tip on being careful!
Thanks very much. Perfect step by step directions.
WOW, very detailed instructions. Thank you so much for sharing. I believe this is exactly what is wrong with mine. It works, but boy is it loud! And I will gladly support you by ordering through your link if I decide to fix it myself.
Glad it helped! Thanks for the comment.
Thank you very much! Because of your post, I did it for myself!!!!!!!!
Thanks for your comprehensive video. First video that showed me I do not have to move the dryer to expose the back screws by using a 17mm wrench to hold the rear roller nuts.
Thanks! Yes, I like this shortcut. There have been a couple of people who were unable to grab the nut with the wrench the way I did, but given thousands of views, I would guess more than 90% have been able to do it this way. You have to place it precisely over the nut, it may take some wiggling.to get it in the right place.
My dryer just started making noise so I decided to order the repair kit before puling it apart. Thank you for such an excellent video!
You're welcome!
Excellent video, THANK YOU! Saved me hundreds of dollars!
Nice work, excellent instructions. I really appreciate your succinct style.
My pleasure! Glad to help.
This is the best Samsung dryer disassembly video on UA-cam. I used it in July 2022 to replace the roller wheels and idler pulley, and in Dec 2023 to replace the heating element. No-pro tip: Use a trigger clamp to hold the idler pulley under tension to slip the belt on one handed. Remove the trigger clamp before installing the front bulkhead.
Thanks for the tip. Glad it helped.
Amazing video, helped me repair our noisy dryer for the cost of the repair kit and a new wrench set. The tensioner was the squeaky culprit for us, but I replaced everything that came in the kit. Couple of points for others attempting the repair - it's possible to do this without unstacking the dryer if you have it stacked, actually might have made it easier. Also, check the belt orientation - I did this wrong (ribbed side of belt should be on the inside, facing the drum, with the ribs catching on the motor rod) when I tried, the smooth side of the belt slipped and the motor wouldn't spin the drum.
How did you remove the drum with them stacked. Mine are now and unsure if I need to unstack!?
@@PiTaReX I don't recall the drum being too difficult to remove, once you remove the bulkhead. The drum is not fastened to anything besides the belt. Only awkward bit is removing/reinstalling the electrical console on the top due to my ceiling clearance. Having everything else at eye level was helpful!
Thank you! Very good instructions. It made the job very easy.
Awesome step by step tutorial! Thank you so much!!!! This helped out substantially!!!
Incredible.
Great to hear, I'm glad it helped! Thanks for the comment.
Thank you very much brother we fixed it just trusted your instructions step by step and we made it. How did you even do that single handedly such a great talent.
Glad to hear! I did have a camerawoman helping, so it wasn't single handed.
Thank you very much for putting this out.
Awesome video. This helps tremendously. I thought I would need to buy a new dryer, but after watching you here, I am confident I can do it myself and save $700.
👍Glad it helped. Yes it's always nice to save some $$.
