Possible Causes

Dryer not level, worn drum rollers, missing leveling feet, loose blower housing or motor mounts

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug dryer before adjusting feet or accessing internal components.

Steps:

  • Level the dryer: Use a level on top of the dryer. Adjust the leveling feet until the unit is stable and does not rock.
  • Check floor: Ensure the floor is solid and not flexing. Avoid placing the dryer on soft surfaces.
  • Inspect internal supports: If vibration persists, inspect drum rollers, motor mounts, and blower housing for looseness or wear. Tighten mounting screws and replace worn parts.
