Whirlpool condensed tumbler dryer

Is the dryer vented properly? If not, the unit will not dry properly and the humidity in the clothes will stay in the room and condense on the metal of unit.

Unplug the unit and take the top with the screws holding the lid on. Take a look at all of the wires on the top of the machine. You might notice broken/burnt wires on the safeties that are close to or that directly activate the heating element located in the blower housing located at the top of this washer/dryer condensing unit.

The element is shorted to frame or the motor cent switch is bad.Or both. Might be a busted spring or lint has the switch stuck in the on position. My low cost production epic cent switch video shows how to check that. On my youtube channel is a bunch of whirlpool videos from various models.

check the filter is clear and the access vent from heater fan to tumbler is not blocked - have seen a sock blocking air flow -
drier is only a fan blowing air over a heated element & through a duct or pipe into the tumbler - on exit the air passes a filter and if this is blocked - through passage is obstructed and hot air will escape backwards

Sounds like you have a blockage in the venting from the dryer to the outside and the moisture from clothes is probably not exiting the dryer and causing the display panel to condensate. Take the vent off the back and dry a load with it off and see what happens.

You may have lint issue with the vent hose. If your vent hose has alot of lint in it the dryer will not properly dry clothes. Clear it out really good, take it outside and shake it all out so that its as clean as you can get it and then give it a shot. If it still isnt drying at that point you may have to replace the thermal fuse which regulates the temperature inside the dryer.

It could be the tumbler. Also check the vent coming from the back of the dryer (make sure it is not clogged)

common problem result from you having a clog in your home vent.....wil need to check outside vent while unit is running on air dry for air flow....could also be a vent motor failure....depending on unit it may have a motor just for the exhaust fan.

Sounds like your heating element is burned out (acually burned threw) I can walk threw it with you if you like.First find a replacement element.Everytime you turn it on the element gets weak from contraction and expansion.
