Whirlpool Dryer Lines and Features
What a Whirlpool Dryer Technician Deals With

Whirlpool Dryer Symptoms and First Checks

- Dryer not heating. Make sure a heated cycle is selected rather than Air Only, then check both breakers and the 240-volt supply on electric models or the open gas shutoff valve on gas models. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
