How Whirlpool Dryers Are Built
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

- Dryer won't start. Press and hold Start for a few seconds, confirm the door is fully latched and Controls Locked is off, and check the household fuses or breakers. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Dryer Not Starting or No Operation
