good at history but not repair I have a 10 year old whirlpool dryer that has suddenly decided its goal in life is to get as hot as it can without actually catching on fire. Any idea what gives? | ||

A possible test While i'm not sure of the exact dryer, try running it on lower temperatures, usually, if all the temp settings are just as hot as high, then it could be a bad cycling thermostat. | ||
