Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Wife and I marked a few more waterfalls off our list. The entrance to the cave is blocked but still cool. Saw a large black bear on the drive in.

Cleaned up its steel bushing and the shaft it rides on and smeared on a bit of lithium grease. Also did the same for the four drum rollers while I was in there. Fingers crossed.
Well, it was worth a try. The dryer ran nice & quiet for a few times, but the screech is back, worse than ever. Gonna get a Maytag kit with new drum rollers, idler wheel, and belt.
That should do the trick. If not, looks like it's time for a new dryer.

New dryers suck, why they need a mother board is beyond me...

Most of the new appliances suck. Most come from overseas too...
The motherboard is for the bluetooth to control it from a phone.
I've had enough negative experience with anything Maytag built in the last 20 years, that I won't consider them anymore. When the Maytag washing machine we got with this house seized the main shaft for the second time in 3 years due to a crappy design with crappy seals and bearings, it went to the crusher. Most of the mainstream appliances have only a 1 year warranty too. I bought a Speed Queen washer with a 7 year parts and labor warranty.
It doesn't have all the problematic bells and whistles, nor can we program it from our phone, which is exactly what we wanted to stay away from. Why the heck does a person need to control a washer from their phone ???

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

It's just nuts isn't it? A while back I was heading through Lowes and I swear I saw either a washing machine or dryer with a monitor in the door. TV or PC or something. Now who needs anything like that? Gizmos and gadgets are ruining everything.
