I just got a brand new whirlpool washer and dryer. I tried to dry a comforter that was extra wet. I squeezed out as much water as I could, but it was still soaked. The dryer it seemed to be OK, but I have a European model that does not drain on it's own, but rather it has a reservoir where it collects the water and that must be emptied after each dry cycle. I figured that I may have to empty this a few times. So when I checked it after the dryer had been running for a while there was water puddling up inside the drum. I removed the comforter and tried to mop up the water with a towel and I emptied the reservoir but now the "empty reservoir" light goes on when I try to start the dryer and it won't start. I thought that maybe the dryer was water logged and I aired it out over night, but it still will not work. :( Any help work be great.

Why didn't you just give the comforter extra spin dry time to get out excess water?
