TDC32 making a strange noise when running

Hi,

My Hotpoint TDC32 tumble dryer has started to make a strange noise whilst running. It is coming from the back of the appliance and occurs once per cycle. Is this something to do with the belt? The machine is heating up correctly.

Many thanks,
James

Hi there james just check if u can move the inner drum by opening the door and place your hand on the inside with your fingers facing down if the drum moves even slightly when u pull your fingers up then it will more then likely be your bearings which are situated at the back m8

Hotpoint TDC32 Dryer makes a noise like plates sliding

Could be coins in the drum.  Might also be a bad roller bearing.  Hard to tell.
