My whirlpool tumble dryer is an older mode purchase new in 2000, suddenly it's only blowing cold air, i've cleaned the filters and tried the reset but mine doesn't have a setting at 6 o'clock so not sure where it should be pointing to do the reset, could anyone help please or is it time for a new one?? Thank you

If older model could be heating element has failed. Unplug remove back panel and if older mod probably has element embedded in aluminium casting, looks like a radiator if you get it out , before that check the 2 thermostats attached to it are not burnt out, then the continuity across the element tags with wires off. I,m guessing which model you have hope this makes sense. Cheers
