I saw other posts regarding Whirlpool dryers that wouldn't start and the suggestions of checking the door connection, but in our case 1) there are no exterior lights, and 2) the interior light doesn't come on.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ben

Use a meter and check your voltage at the outlet, you should read 240 volts between the hots and 120 between each hot and neutural. If you do not then chances are you may have blown a fuse.

If you are, then check the connections on the dryer cord. You may have a loose connection.
