Open the front panel, and check to see if this is the case. Also, if it was moved recently, the bottom panel could have gotten bent upwards, causing it to rub on the trans pulley. Here is a video showing that issue, it might help to look at the video for seeing if the springs are shot and it is just hanging too low https://youtu.be/UTeyWEa9LAw?lis...-XSb6kIdHFVt4tDwUgSIJ7t2 Ken's Appliance Repair
