[QUOTE="Merlin72, post: 1885940, member: 9538"] I am an appliance repairman and I also agree its your motor going out. What I would like to add is that before you order your motor is check and see if you can get the blower wheel off without destroying it. More often then not on dryers of your age I actually have to dremel the blower wheels off because they are locked on the shaft and tear up while trying to remove. Just figure I would save you a couple cuss words when you have the motor and make time to replace it only to find you need another part. Since your already in there I would also order a tune up kit consisting of new rollers , belt , and tensioner. The kit is cheap and after that stuffs done there shouldn't be any need to open the cabinet and remove the drum for any future repairs for awhile. [/QUOTE]
