How to fix Whirlpool Dryer when clothes are not drying?
- R
  Ricky BowenAug 16, 2025
  To address clothes not drying well or drying times being too long in your Whirlpool Dryer, start by cleaning the lint screen before each load, as a clogged screen restricts airflow. Ensure you've selected the appropriate cycle for your garments, consulting the 'Cycle Guide' if needed. Avoid overloading the dryer; separate large loads for better tumbling. Check the exhaust vent for blockages; clear any lint and ensure the vent isn't crushed or kinked. Confirm the exhaust vent is the correct length and diameter (4 inches). Finally, ensure the dryer is in a room with a temperature above 45ºF (7ºC) and, if in a closet, that there's adequate ventilation with openings at the top and bottom of the door.

Why is my Whirlpool 7MWED1800EM not heating up?
- E
  Elizabeth MartinAug 19, 2025
  If your Whirlpool Dryer isn't heating up, even though the drum is turning, start by checking your household fuses or circuit breakers, as electric dryers use two. Replace both fuses or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, consult an electrician. For gas dryers, ensure the supply line valve is open.

What to do if my Whirlpool 7MWED1800EM Dryer will not start?

  Eric HowellAug 22, 2025
  If your Whirlpool Dryer won't run, first ensure the door is completely closed. Then, press and hold the 'PUSH TO START' knob firmly until you hear the dryer drum moving. Check your household fuses or circuit breakers, as electric dryers use two; replace both fuses or reset the breaker. If the issue persists, consult an electrician to verify you have a 240-volt power supply and that you're using a time-delay fuse.

Why is my Whirlpool 7MWED1800EM making noise?
- Q
  qbrooksAug 26, 2025
  If your Whirlpool Dryer is making unusual sounds, it could be due to several reasons. If the dryer hasn't been used recently, a thumping sound might occur during the first few minutes. Check for any small objects like coins or buttons caught between the drum and the dryer's front or rear. For gas dryers, a clicking sound from the gas valve is normal. Ensure the dryer is properly installed with all four legs and is level. Also, separate knotted or balled-up clothing to prevent bouncing and vibration.

How to prevent lint on clothes from Whirlpool Dryer?
- J
  jimenezchrisAug 28, 2025
  If you find lint on your clothes after drying in your Whirlpool Dryer, the lint screen is likely clogged. Make sure to clean the lint screen before each load to ensure proper airflow and prevent lint from transferring to your clothes.

Why does my Whirlpool 7MWED1800EM cycle end too fast?
- D
  Diana WoodAug 31, 2025
  If your Whirlpool Dryer cycle is ending too quickly, it could be that the load isn't making contact with the sensor strips. Try leveling the dryer. For very small loads, use the Timed Dry setting. You can also adjust the Dry Level setting on Automatic Cycles to increase or decrease drying time.

What causes stains in my Whirlpool Dryer?
- L
  Lori PetersonSep 3, 2025
  If you notice stains on your clothes or the drum of your Whirlpool Dryer, it may be due to improper use of dryer fabric softener. Add dryer sheets at the beginning of the cycle, as adding them to a partially dried load can cause stains. Drum stains are often caused by dyes in clothing, like blue jeans, and these stains typically won't transfer to other clothing.

How to prevent wrinkles in Whirlpool 7MWED1800EM?
- H
  howellsharonSep 6, 2025
  To prevent wrinkles when using your Whirlpool Dryer, remove the load immediately after the cycle ends. Use the Wrinkle Shield feature to tumble the load without heat. Also, avoid tightly packing the dryer; smaller loads allow clothes to tumble freely, reducing wrinkles.

Why does my Whirlpool 7MWED1800EM Dryer smell?
- R
  Ronald JonesSep 9, 2025
  If you notice unusual odors coming from your Whirlpool Dryer, especially if you've recently been painting, staining, or varnishing nearby, ventilate the area. Once the odors or fumes are gone, rewash and dry the clothing. If it's a new electric dryer, the heating element may produce an odor that will disappear after the first cycle.

Why is my laundry too hot after using Whirlpool Dryer?
- S
  Sara WhiteSep 12, 2025
  If your laundry is too hot when removed from your Whirlpool Dryer, allow the Cool Down cycle to finish before unloading. If a high temperature cycle was used, select a lower temperature and use an Automatic Cycle to prevent overdrying.
