What a Whirlpool Dryer Technician Deals With
Electric Whirlpool dryers run on 240 volts from two breakers or fuses, one feeding the motor and one the heating element, so a single tripped breaker can leave the drum turning with no heat. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
Clicking from the gas valve on a gas dryer is a normal operating sound. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Sounds or Noises in a Dryer
