Barrel tumbles and everything dries but it makes a loud noise. Lessens slightly towards end of drying cycle.

is your laundry getting rolled into one big pack? My dryer does that and it sounds like someone is stomping their feet.

My dryer is displaying F70, and will not work, other than drum light. The dryer is a kenmore smartheat quietpak 9 model 11087081601

The F70 error indicates a heartbeat failure of the central control.

If the error occurs while the washer is running then likely it is a problem with the interface. If the error occurs while nothing is running then the central control is most likely at fault.

If the error occurs while the motor is running then the console/membrane is most likely at fault.

This problem can be caused by a short in the low voltage circuit.

It is a difficult problem to pin down and the parts are to expensive just to replace so I suggest a technician check and repair this problem.

Control locked

Mine has an "auto dry" button. It says underneath, "Press & hold 3 seconds..." to unlock control. I did it, it worked.
