- Video covers how to fix a Samsung dryer that is making weird/loud noises. In the video I show how to replace the idler pulley and drum rollers which can lead to squeaky, grinding, and rumbling noises. The video is applicable to a wide range of Samsung dryers gas or electric the dryer in the video is model number DV45H7000EWA2. This video is part of my series "Free on Facebook" which is a series of videos in which I repair, reuse, and recycle things I find for free.
Update!
Link to dryer kit part has now been placed inside the video as a pop-up link. It should pop up at the bottom of the screen when you watch the video.
My dryer has this exact issue and this was the first video I found that actually got to the point. Ordered myself a kit from Amazon. Some kits claim upgraded ball bearings which may or may not be true but was only an extra few dollars so I'll give those a shot.
BRO THANKS U SAVE MY LIFE U MADE IT SO SIMPLE. 💯 %ON POINT.THANK U SIR.
I never comment on videos, but wanted to thank you for this! I watched this one time and i was able to complete the repair. It ended up being the bearings in the rollers going out. The whole kit that includes 4 rollers, belt, idler pulley/bracket, and spring I got on Amazon for $35 shipped overnight. This video saved my mother $1000!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Comments like this keep me going! I'm glad it helped!
This video is the one. The talking through troubleshooting during disassembly, along with the re-assembly video. *chef’s kiss*
Glad I could help!
Thanks for superb video. My Samsung DV45H7000EW/AC was making a very loud grinding screeching noise. The problem was a dry, worn out rear wheel bearing, just as you indicated in the video. Your disassembly and reassembly instructions made my job fast and easy as they matched my model exactly but as you say, it applies to a wide range of Samsung dryers that share a similar mechanical design. All rollers on my unit have plain bearings. They have been lubed as recommended. Parts were obtained locally, over the counter, from a small appliance parts dealer a few minutes from my home. I figure your video saved a $250-300 repair bill. Thanks again!
Great job with the repair! You are right, any appliance repair person would have at least charged $250 for this repair.
I am going to fix my Samsung dryer now and I wouldn't have known exactly what to do without your excellent video. Some videos claim that the blower motor assembly is the cause of the problem, but the noise I hear is consistent with bearings that are going bad and those rollers. Thank you!
Glad to help! Best of luck with the repair!
Thanks. Clear and concise step-by-step instructions made my DIY job so much easier.
GREAT Video!! My husband was able to fix our dryer with your step by step instructions. Thank you so much!!
That's awesome to hear! Kudos to your husband! Glad I could help
My sister's dryer will require a kit about 7 bucks more. But it's ordered and I look forward to tackling it next week. Your video made it so much more direct and to the point. Usually I'll tear into things blind. Still come out with it repaired but videos like this make it sweet and simple, Thanks. My cousin been pushing me to make repair videos. I might make one of my repair. My sister don't trust just everyone to make repairs on her items. Thanks for your video it has proven to be helpful a week before the project. Liked and subscribed 😊
Thanks! Best of luck on the repair!
Thank you so much. I used this video for the repair on my Samsung dryer, it was so helpful. Very detailed and yet to the point. Thanks again, our dryer had been noisy for months.
I'm glad to have helped! Comments like these keep me going!
This is the first such video that I found that has the noise recorded. Thanks for that!
Now I'm pretty sure one of these components are what's failing in my Kenmore.
Thank you so much for making this video! I watched a couple different videos but yours was the most helpful! Made changing all the wheels and the belt a lot easier!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much! Thankfully our parts were good. Come to find out it was a nickel and dime in the fan motor. Wouldn’t be able to correct it without your video showing how to disassemble.
Awesome work! Glad I could help a little bit!
You are a professional brother. Thank you for saving me a large sum of money and one less argument with the wife! 😅
Glad to help! Happy wife, happy life!
Thank you for this video. It definitely helped today. I've had to replace the idler pully, but never had to pull the drum. It was nice to have this as a reference
Glad to help!
Great video but the Amazon parts in the description are the wrong ones. Video was still extremely helpful!
Thanks brother!!! This video took me step by step. Before videos like this on TH-cam, I guess I would have just been buying a new dryer.
That's awesome! Great job to you as well!
The motor mount bushing was worn on mine. It was the one with a c-clamp on to hold the motor. There is no parts for that replacement, they wanted to sell the entire motor. So ended up cutting a tires rubber and use it as a bushing. 3 years now there is no problem. Those rollers they dont go bad easily. My dryer is 10 years old, with the same model you have it was built 2012. The 2nd problem was the heater core that i replaced last year which cost $12.00. It has long way to live ^_^
Love the innovation! Great job!
The kit is a good kit but as an upgrade version with ball bearings you must change out all four shafts not just the rollers!
This is a lot more extensive than you have described
Good tips!
This man just saved my sanity! My issue was the exact same
Only suggestion is explain the best way to put the belt back on - because I must have tinkered with that for 20 mins trying to find the best leverage. Otherwise - spot on and this worked like a charm!
Appreciate the tip!
Great instructions fixing this dryer! Fixed mine in no time. I did change the wheel axles, I didn't have to. Still works tho! Thanks again!!
Great job on the fix!
That might be a good location to hide small valuables.... under the drum. Hmmm... Sorry, scenes from Breaking Bad flooded my mind. Thanks for the video!
Well, until the dryer starts to heat up and burns it all! Lol
Thanks for posting! My dryer is no longer screeching at me
Very nice!
My Niece & her Husband, morons lol! And why, I pulled the dryer apart knowing what I would find. Loose change was an understatement. Pulled the drum, you could hear it falling out of the channels of the dryer drum. $40.00 in change; and charge them $120.00 on top of that LOL. I have a SAMSUNG dryer 2009 my self, I changed the belt twice, the rollers doing great. My dryer never look like that with all that dust you had... Dust kills bearings. Good job!
Exactly the same problem with my pully-- the belt had worn right through it. Lousy plastic garbage piece, but a great video-- thank you!
Glad it helped!
Thank you, saved me a repair bill
Great to hear!
Thanks so much for this video! Finding that kit was really a lifesaver
Awesome! Glad to help!
This vid was great!!! I literally had the exact issue with the exact dryer haha great walk through
Awesome, I'm glad I could help!
The OEM Samsung parts included in this kit are many, many times more expensive than the kit you used. My original dryer parts lasted about 5-6 years before it started to rumble. In your opinion, are the OEM parts much higher quality? I don't really want to do this again in a year.
Thank you for this great video. It is easy to follow along and understand.
I have had good luck with the Amazon kits but then again I have not tested them for 5 to 6 years. It is a risk, but I would read the reviews and go from there. Hope this helped!
Thanks so much for sharing your expertise and knowledge.@@DuctTapeMechanic
Thanks for the video. My dryer had the exact same problem. Great info.
Your welcome. Glad to help!
Looks like a lot of work to get at the rollers, but well worth doing so. How much time involved in tearing this dryer apart to replace rollers, and putting the machine back together? Oh and thanks for these videos.
Yes, the rollers on these take probably twice as much time as they would on a whirlpool/maytag dryer. I appreciate the support for the channel!
Great video.. step by step thank you
Wife’s hair tangled up everywhere that may have been part of the problem lol!
And I’m 3 cents richer, 3 Pennie’s found in the base of the dryer
Right on!
Very easy to follow steps thanks. But after I put back together it won’t start, has power but just keeps blinking and nothing happens
Did you remember to plug the door switch back jn?
Thanks
Follow the instructions step by step and I fix the problem on my dryer 🙋♂️💯%
Awesome Job! Glad I could help!
This is our exact dryer. I am having trouble finding your link to get the kit from Amazon. Would you mind letting me know, please?
Here u go. It was in the description , if you scroll all the way down.

Hey should I put lube on the rollers or not a lot of forms say not to and if so what lube should I apply?
Personally I believe a couple drops of silicone based lubricant is the way to go. Otherwise metal on metal is gonna start makes noises!
Is the screw on the pully supposed to be tight?
Yes
mine started to make a lot of noise when tumbling. Belt was ok and the one roller I could see in the back was ok. It made noise only at certain points in the drum rotation. Removed front cover and found one roller had a flat edge because the roller likely wasn't rolling smoothly. Until the new roller arrives I smoothed out the roller edge and added grease to the shaft and it's quieter that was definitely the problem.
This video helped a lot. Thanks
Awesome! Glad I could help!

Thanks Very much U R The Man.
Thank you soooo much!!! This really helped.
Glad to help!
Thank you for the video!
Your welcome!
Do you think Samsung internationally makes poor dryers?
Planned obscelescence is a problem with electronics after all.
I don't think they do it on purpose. I think they just use the cheapest production parts possible. At the end of the day, it has the same effect, appliances that have issues within the first year or two
Thanks for this!
Really helpful
Thank you for your help today
No problem!
You don’t have to remove the back screws 1:20 the front will pop up if you take your palm and push it up
Replace the Rollers! Don’t go cheap ! Alot of work to disassemble !
Good suggestion!
or a 1b of lint in the blower cage!! Now where did that left over baby (3/8) screw go? yup one left over.
Been there!
How should my belt look on the drum
Did u take a picture before taking it off?
Our dryer can grind real loud when it first starts up and when it runs with a very light load. We jolt the machine backwards and the sound usually goes away. Any idea what this would be caused by?
Thank you Boss
No problem sir!
We did this today and Jesus Christ we pulled out so much lint it looked like a giant cat 😅
Gotta make sure to clean lint trap every use
