Most likely causes
- A worn mechanical part at end of life

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Do this first — it takes two minutes: unplug it for a minute and try again, since a simple reset clears more faults than people expect. Once you've ruled that out, if the basics check out, the fault is inside the control system or a sealed component, and diagnosing that safely takes a technician's tools and training.
How we fix it
We start with a full diagnostic on the Whirlpool dryer, confirm the real fault, then price it flat. Whirlpool OEM parts are extremely widely available through authorized distributors, but sealed-system refrigerant repairs require an experienced technician. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.
