How do I fix my Whirlpool dryer?

The F3E2 error code on a Whirlpool dryer indicates that there is a problem with the dryer's heating element. The heating element is responsible for heating the air that circulates through the dryer, and if it is not working properly, the dryer will not be able to adequately dry clothes. There are a few potential reasons why the heating element might not be working properly, such as a blown fuse or a faulty thermostat. If the heating element is the problem, it will need to be replaced.
