We recently completed a dryer repair on Parkview Street NW in Canton, OH for a customer experiencing extended dry time. Our diagnosis revealed no heat and a failed timer that was preventing proper cycle operation.
The Problem
The customer reported extended dry time with their Whirlpool dryer. Clothes were taking much longer than normal to dry completely during regular cycles.
Diagnosis
No heat. Timer failed. Our inspection also revealed the vent is heavily obstructed and needs cleaned, which would contribute to the extended drying times even after the timer repair.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: Wpw10185982 — Timer
- Work performed: Replaced timer
- Result: Good to go
Is It Worth Repairing?
This Whirlpool dryer model is a reliable mid-range unit worth repairing when major components like the timer fail. Timer replacement restores proper cycle control and heating operation, extending the appliance’s useful life significantly.
Maintenance Tips for Whirlpool Dryers
- Clean the lint screen after every load to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating
- Have your dryer vent professionally cleaned annually to prevent obstructions that cause extended dry times
- Check the door seal regularly and clean around the drum to prevent lint buildup
