Frigidaire Dryer Vibrating

[melissa30]

Model# FLSE72GCSA

It is a frigidaire gallery laundry center with a washer on the bottom and the dryer on the top.....we recently cleaned all the lint out of the dryer where it had accumulated in the ring around the heating element......we also had to replace the felt strip and drum glides.....after we put the dryer back together and started it up it ran for about 30 mintues with no problems........then it started shaking horribly and made a LOUD vibrating noise.......we've looked at the belt and the pulley assembly while it's running and everything looks normal.......we don't want to call someone to come out if it's something simple.......any idea what could be causing this.......it only does it when the dryer is going........

Thanks
Melissa

As I have said in earlier post I have never worked on the smaller stackable washer dryers so I don't know these. But if it is anything like the larger model just on a smaller scale you have have a bad tub support roller or missed putiing it in the grove of the drum when you put the drum back in.. Sorry I can't be of more help on these stack units But they are not a big mover here in Baltimore area so I stayed away from them.

Thanks for replying.......we ended up taking the entire drum completely out and cleaning the drum bearing assembly...added new grease.....realigned the grounding ball and then put everything back together.....we also realigned the felt strip with the glides because the drum was rubbing against one of the glides crooked.......we think this is where the drum was misaligned and was getting caught causing the vibrations.......so far it's running with no sign of the vibrations.......thanks again......
