My Whirlpool Ultimate Care II gas dryer began taking longer to dry clothes. After about 2 weeks, it has no heat on any setting. I have had it for several years and dry 6 to 8 loads per week. Could it be the heating element, and if so, can that be replaced? If not, should I just buy a new dryer or call a repairman? I do not want to pay a repairman if he is going to tell me to buy a new dryer. Thanks. Debra
Long dry times are a venting problem. if no heat at all it could be your ignitor, a thermal fuse, or the secondary gas coils, all are replaceable and reasanoblyy cheap between 30-90 dollars usually so its up to u it u want to repair it.. if long dry times i would unplug the venting from the rear and dry a load if it heats faster than u know ur venting is clogged and u might wanna clean ur ducting and replace that venting tube. also u can go outside while running and see or feel if air is being pushed out while its running hope this helps let me know how it goes
