Is F25 urgent?
Product Help is silent on that. The code is given for commercial-grade residential Whirlpool dryers, together with a reset but without any cause, which makes the reset your starting point.
Reset steps
Leave the dryer’s breaker or breakers off for a full 5 minutes. Switch them back on, run a time dry cycle, then keep watching the dryer for one minute.
When the code comes back
Arrange a technician visit, noting the code and the model number beforehand.
F28 comes after that with nothing beyond the reset.
Service for your dryer in San Francisco
Should F25 reappear, (415) 687-4102 reaches us from anywhere around the Bay. Quote the code and model number, and describe the reset you ran; Whirlpool dryer repair has the appliance overview.
Model compatibility: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so F25 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
