The dryer does dry clothes.
However, the drum turns slowly and makes a growling sound. The sound seems to originate in the back. We took it apart and found the belt okay. The rotator "sleeve" (?) was not frayed.
I don’t want to take it apart again and find out that everything else (minus the motor) is okay.
Any ideas welcome. Thank you very much.
