It worked great! Thank you so much!
You're welcome!😊👍
My dryer has been rattling my teeth every time my wife dries a load for weeks now and I was considering paying someone to come fix it. Hell, I even thought about buying a new dryer. But instead, I followed your instructions and now the neighbors can sleep while we do laundry. Thanks!
I love it😊😊😊
Thanks for the great video directions. I have to say this electrolux dryer has one of the worst dryer lint traps i have ever seen. Lint just completely goes around it rather than through. I am going to find and install some seal strips in the gaps to keep this from happening.
Yep,
It’s the worst.
I think they now make an updated filter kit to fix it😊
It took less than an hour to complete this process. I could not believe how much lint was in that fan housing. The dryer is as quiet as the day we bought it.
Thank you for this information and help.
You’re very welcome Erin👍
Ours started rumbling noticeably louder over the last 2 weeks. I removed the filter and filter housing and saw the inlet of the blower. Holy crap it was full of junk. I removed a ball of lint about the size of a tennis ball using a long skinny Dryer Lint Vent Trap Cleaner Brush. I rotated the drum a few degrees at a time and used a stiff wire to break a few big chunks loose and removed them. Not a complete cleaning, but it made a HUGE difference. I will make time to do a more complete cleaning and inspection within a week. Thanks for your video, as it set us on the path for a free and easy repair! (I'm sure a typical repair company would have charged us $200 plus a part that we don't need to replace!)
Nice job Shane😊😊😊
Yes!!! It worked! Noise is gone. Thank you, Scott. ❤ Angie’s list estimate was $450 😮
Wow,
Great job and thanks for the Super Thanks👏
Thank you so much for this informative guide to cleaning out that part. I had used a vacuum attachment to clean out the lint collection area and just ended up pushing a good chunk of lint further into the dryer, thus making to rattle like crazy. This was easy to follow and saved me a service call. Many thanks!
Can confirm this made a huge difference in a very loud rumbling sound on a 4 year old dryer that has never had the blower cleaned. Took me about an hour to disassemble, clean all the lint and dust, and reassemble. Thanks for the video.
Thank you Scott!!! I was able to take it apart and put it back together again. My wife dropped a fabric softener bag down below the screen and it's been retrieved!
Nice job Markus😊
Had a SEARS guy at my house yesterday. He gave me the choice of $500 in repairs (canuter valve and muffler bearings) or to purchase a warranty and get it fixed in 45 days.....watched your video and an hour later (and just a few expletives).....it runs like a dream!
Thanks so much Daniel😊 Sears is now run by Pirates😂
I want to say thank you! We have this exact dryer and it was making a horrific loud rumbling. Watched your video, did exactly what you showed and the problem was solved. Saved us having a repair person come to the house and I’d guess $300. THANK YOU
AAAAAAWSOME😊😊😊
Thanks man! Wife is super happy and so am I!
That’s how you do it😂😊
Worked like a charm. Thanks for helping me feel like a champion today. Dryer now running silky smooth.
Awesome job James😊👍
This fixed our dryer! I followed video completely, thank you!~ Leanna
Awesome,
Thanks so much👍
Thank you for your video helped me out to fixed my dryer Rumbling.
Awsome,
Thank you 😊
Thank you for the information and help with the fix. This was my dryers issue. Works great now but disappointing Electrolux won’t issue a free fix for their design flaw.
Glad it helped👍😊
Excellent step by step instructions, my 2 year old dryer was making the same noise and this totally fixed it. Thank you...
Thanks so Much Kevin😊👍
Thanks so much for this info! My dryer has been making this rattling/rumbling noise on and off for a couple of years. If i pushed on the front door it would make it go away, if I raised the front slightly it would go away and if I stopped it and pushed in on the drum several times it would usually make it go away. I always thought it had something to do with the door, leveling or a drum roller. I've googled it before but never came up with this solution and I'll be damned it worked! Kind of a pain to get the front cover back on with those clips(broke one) but like I said it runs super quiet again, just like new. I just got the wife approval award today too.....Thanks again!
Nicely done ❤️😊
I didn’t think this was my problem because mine was much louder than yours and it was shaking like crazy. I just tried this and totally fixed it thank you so much! Now I just need a video of the washer front seal without unstacking the machines😂
Ahh, omg it worked! The dryer rumbled like it was about to fall apart! Cleaned it out and now its SILENT again! Thank you!!!!!
Nice job Erica😊
Thank you for this!! Just finished using your great instructions! Your step by step was right on.
I did find a couple handy tools to help 1) Mask for dust 2) hook tool for in-between fan blades and the small loop shaped OXO brush from their kitchen appliance maintenance set that fit perfectly between the fan blades.
Look forward to speedy quiet drying! Keep up the great work!
Nicely done 😊👍
Thank you! Found a sock in there. Removed and problem solved! Awesome video
Thanks so much Danny😊👍
Excellent video! Saved us a service call and probably a few hundred dollars.
Thank you for the instructional video! Saved me from calling a repair man and spending hundreds. Very well done!
Thanks so much 😊
Mine was a little different but your video was all the help I needed. Thanks for taking the time
Excellent,
Thank you for your feedback👍
Great video. Helped me out. Thank you sir

Thank you so much for posting this!
Worked perfectly!!
Great video. I was able to remove the plastic filter holder, only four screws, and reach in and clean out the fan. 5 minute fix! Cured the rumbling. PS: I have a skinny arm.
Nice job Rick, that’s a much faster technique👍
Exactly what I needed...so well done. To the point, quick amd easy. Thank you!!!
Thanks Richard👍
You sir are a legend. Thanks so much. Worked famously. Cheers
Thanks so much Ryan👍
Great video, I also ordered the upgraded parts (grill and filter), it’s $170 worth of parts but hopefully that will resolve the problem going forward.

Thanks for the video! Our dryer had this exact problem.
Thanks so much👍😊
Did the same fix found half a dog inside the fan. I do think there is a way to vacuum the fan using a flexible hose might not completely clear it of all debris but if done as a maintenance cleaning it should keep it from building up. -I'm going to make one that can be slid through the bottom of the lint vent. You can turn the barrel to rotate the fan blade to clean it pretty thoroughly. - thanks this was helpful
Thanks for this video. After a duvet exploded in our dryer, the rumbling was unbearable. Thanks to your direction, I was able to clean out a bucketful of buildup from the blower motor. Now it’s practically silent (again). Cheers!
Nice job John👍
Scottthefixitguy can you help figure out how to take the dryer apart when it’s stacked on the watcher? May be attached.
@@sassie790309 Its the same as when it's no attached, only difference is the 2 screws on the front between the washer and dryer....If you used the stacking kit.
Thank you sir crazy how lint which is so light can throw off the balance that easily.. I used a shop vac and a air compressor hopefully I get another 5-6 years out of it!
THANKS! We had the same issue with our Electrolux dryer! Unfortunately our felt gasket on the lint trap fell apart so the lint gets around the sides. I have to find something that will work in its place. I definitely am NOT buying an 80$ lint trap for 5$ in felt.
Yep,
You can fix it for sure👍
@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel I have been searching for a replacement felt bur have only found ones that are incredibly THICK for the drum itself! I can't tell you how nice it is to have a quiet dryer again. I had thought it was one of the support wheels that had a failed bearing or flat spot on the wheel since it was shaking the drum like crazy. I can't believe it was just lint that completely filled the blower. There was so much in there I'm shocked it even dried clothes still!
Great video. Easy to follow and exactly what I needed to do.
I’m back! 😂 I didn’t fix my issue last time but I just figured it out! I took off the back and the pulley arm for the elf is vibrating a LOT. I got a short clip of it but I’m not sure how to fix it.
Can you send that same question along with some pictures to: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
Thanks!
Perfect video. My exact problem. I really appreciate the help. This got me through the process step by step for a great result.
Awesome,
Thank you
Thank you! My dryer was making a loud whirring noise, corresponding with the drum rotating. I suspected something got into the fan housing because one of my boys dried a load of clothes without the lint trap installed. Oy vey.
Instructions were spot on! Easier than I thought. Once I got the top, front and bulkhead removed, I found a pair of underwear caught in the fan.
Your tutorial saved me a lot of time and money!
Awesome, thanks Erik
Thanks! All is quiet now!
Thanks Cindy❤️👍😊
Thank You! We are NOT DIY'ers. We followed your video step by step and viola'--all fixed! I also found another video about ordering some updated parts to prevent this from being a recurring problem (hopefully)....I ordered from amazon: part 5304515376 Dryer Moisture Sensor and Grill Assembly, part 5304513574 Dryer Lind Screen (and 2 #10 2"screws)
Excellent and thanks so much for the info.
Hi, Is there anyway to send you a video of my dryer, it's making a loud clunking sound when turned on. Comparing it to your ones it doesn't sound like the same sound. Please help.
Good video
Thanks so much!!!
i have the same exact dryer and the noise is coming from the blower but it doesn’t have any lint in it, some dirt on vanes but nothing crazy, should i take the blower apart?
I think there’s some chunks of lint that you can’t see yet until you do some disassembly 👍
Thank you!!!
Our Electrolux dryer is brand new; what could be causing the ear piercing rumble/vibration since there's no lint buildup ?
Something is misaligned.
Do you think it may have been run without the lint filter?
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel
😊
Thank you for your response.
The lint filter has been in place since before anything was dried.
(Well .... out of place when removed to clean it ! You ARE referring to the lint screen ?)
Will be disassembling mine to find the rumble, maybe lint, maybe rollers.
Anyone with the old style lint filter (like the one in the video), should install the updated lint trap. Too much lint in the heating element could cause a fire.
It’s a whole lot of lint caught in the blower wheel.
🙏🏾Thank You!
You’re very welcome😊
Hello, we have had ours for 2 months and it’s doing the da thump da thump and has a grinding sound with it. Could it be the blower full of junk in only 2 months?
Yep,
They clog up fast😊
What if the noise and rumbling continues after the blow house cleaned?
Could be the support rollers.
Followed all of the steps exactly from the video. I have full power but when I press start, it triple beeps and nothing happens. Any advice?
Can you double check that the door switch modular connector has been plugged back in after reassembly?
The controller thinks that the door is still open when you press start.
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel double checked the door switch modular connector. Still doesn’t work.
I think it’s a broken dryer belt.
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel Broken belt would cause the motor to spin, but not the drum. It is something to do with the door.
@@camps311 I have the same issue after the repair with the 3 beeps. Door Connection is good. What did you need to do to fix it.
Have u had electrolux dryer e91 code
Hi Ed,
This might help: www.tophomeapps.com/electrolux-dryer-error-code-e91/
@Scott The Fix-It Guy DIY Appliance Videos mine blower was full of crap when it happened to look like a bracket is broke too tryed to add a picture on here
The bracket that bolts the bockhead to the blower is broke on mine and the bracket that bolts the blower to the bottom of the dryer bottom is broken to dont know what they called or if i can get the parts or not thats when i got the code e91 after that happened plus the blower was full of stuff like u have in video
Hi Ed,
Can you send me the model number so I can look up the parts for you.
My email is: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
My maytag dryer rumbling and clothes getting stuck in sides
The problem isn't with the lint buildup as much as it's the design of the blower itself. There is an updated part from Electrolux that replaces the current factory blower wheel. 5304513609. Trust me....I've been fixing this problem for 4 years. (I work for an appliance repair company)
Thanks so much Corey,
Do you think they just engineer it with the vanes being too close together?
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel yes and no, yes they were too close together, but I think it was their shape more than anything. Its shaped more like a turbine fan meant to push backwards (into the housing which creates back pressure) instead of a squirrel cage (which pushes air sideways.
Thanks!
Thank you😊😊😊
