Why my Whirlpool 27' won't start?
- MMarisa BradfordJul 27, 2025
If your Whirlpool Dryer won't start, there could be several reasons. It might be due to no power to the unit, so check the voltage supply. The door switch may not be making contact; in this case, check the door switch wiring and continuity. Also, the thermal fuse might be open, so check the fuse continuity. A broken belt or belt switch could also be the cause; inspect for a broken belt or check the belt switch for continuity. Finally, the timer motor push-to-start relay could be faulty; check the timer contacts for continuity. You can also check voltage to motor, contacts 4 & 5, (120VAC); check motor windings for continuity, (2-4 ohms); check PTS contacts R1 - R2, while pushing start switch; check PTS relay coil R2 - CT1 for continuity.
