KITCHEN AID DRYER--SQUEAKING?

My Kitchen Aid dryer is making a squealing/squeaking sound when it is on. When the dryer is empty it does not make the same sound.

The dryer is an electric, Model #KEYE670BWH3. How can I tell if it needs a new dryer belt, drum roller, glider & slider pads or rear bearing?

Thanks.

Hi,

My guess would be none of the above. For a high pitched squealing noise, I would check out the idler pulley which keeps tension on the belt.
