Whirlpool lew0050pq2 electric dryer

A month ago(march 2014) my dryer(LEW0050PQ2)would not shut off when opening the door. Now (april2014)holding the power button down the dryer only started for about 3 seconds. i decided to try and unplug it for 10 minutes(and also tried over night) to see if maybe it would reset, if at all possible. now when i have the dooor shut, the power light, will not turn on and the dryer will not start at all. any suggestions? im new to fixya, so bare with me on responces Rob

Dryer turns off a minute or two after starting it. It heats during that time just will not stay on.

The next time it happens check to see if your door is latch. If it does come open it is your latch not holding the door in place. Take some painters tape or plain tape and tape the door shut to see if it will stay on longer than two minutes.

My duet dryer's door will pop while drying and then the door is not shut tightly. The door never completely opens just not shut tight and the light comes on in it. When this happens the dryer quits, and...

We had the same problem and surprised how rampant the issue was after referring to the internet reviews / troubleshooting, etc. The problem started after about 6 months and the solution came to me after much "headaching" over the problem. There were no 'codes' coming up just the door popping open during the cycle. I purchased a (2) twenty pack of 1/2" diamerter x 1/16" thick N42 Neo Earth Magnets and placed them along the top edge and bottom edge of the dryer opening. Instant fix in less than a minute. The thickness does not interfere with the door opening and the strength of the magnets is obvious. Hope this helps. Fix was less than $10 bucks and no service man, etc.
