Question posted by custer1876 on December 27th, 2014

Whirlpool Cabrio Dryer Exhaust Is Not Working.

The dyer heats up and spins and after a few minutes an AF code appears. The clothes get hot but do not dry. I inspected the exhaust system and it is completly free of lint or obstructions. I removed the back panel and noticed that the blower wheel does not spin. I removed the exhaust hose and no exhaust comes out. The wheel can be spun by hand but will not run during the heating cycle.
