Hi Rutherford,

The problem is more than likely the heating element or one of the two thermostats on the element. Check each one with an ohmmeter. If the element is open replace it and if one of the thermostats is open replace both of the thermostats. This page will help Whirlpool Dryer Not Heating

The heating element is located under the drum or on the back of the dryer. Without the model number I can’t tell you which one yours is.

Thank you,
