Possible Causes

Dryer not level, Worn or missing feet, Uneven load distribution, Loose internal mounting screws

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before adjusting feet or panels.

Steps:

  • Check that the dryer is on a solid, level surface. Adjust the leveling feet so the cabinet does not rock.
  • Avoid drying single heavy items (e.g., one large towel) that can cause imbalance.
  • Inspect the feet for wear or damage and replace if missing or perished.
  • Check internal mounting screws for the motor, drum supports, and panels; tighten any that are loose.

After adjustments, run the dryer empty and then with a normal load to confirm vibration is reduced.
