Frigidaire Dryer Symptoms and First Checks

- Dryer making noise. Frigidaire says to fasten buckles and metal fasteners, check the drum for coins, then run an empty load; if the noise continues with the drum empty, contact service. Source: Frigidaire - Is it normal for my dryer to make sounds or noises?
Signs Your Frigidaire Dryer Needs a Technician
