About this model
Model overview
The WED560LH is a Whirlpool 7.4 cubic-foot front-load long-vent electric dryer, 27 inches wide, that needs 240 volts, 60 Hz and a 30-amp supply. Its maximum vent length is 160 feet, and venting can run right, bottom or rear. Wrinkle Shield continues tumbling for up to 150 minutes after drying. In the Bay Area, the usual calls are a drum that stops, a cycle that ends early, or squealing. For the booking, write the symptom plus the rating-label number, extras included, and mention if the 30-amp circuit was tested.

Service notes for the WED560LH
A drum that does not turn is traced to the drive belt and rollers, and a technician removes the front panel for those tests. Squealing or grinding usually comes from the idler pulley. No heat is checked at the heating element and thermal fuse, after confirming the 240-volt, 30-amp supply. Cycles that end too soon are reviewed against the moisture sensors and the vent path. The owner can clear the lint screen and the vent hose before calling, with the dryer unplugged. Long runs also need the exhaust outlet and clamp inspected at the wall.
