The heating element on my 3 year old Whirlpool Cabrio WGD7800XW dryer will not come on during any of the automatic (moisture sensing) settings, but dryer works fine using manual (timer based) settings. The vent duct seems fairly clean and exhaust air flows well, but no heat when using AccuDry.

it sounds like your heating element is gone bad. there is no heat if they burn out or get corroded
SOURCE: gas dryer intermittently heats.
most likely solenoids after a few firings they tend to open up and not work again until after cool down replace both they usually come in a kit
SOURCE: whirlpool dryer: supreme Not heating up

1. Open dryer door and remove the phillips head screws at the 5 and 7 O'Clock positions. 2. Remove three screws at very back, allowing top cover to be moved back about an inch and lifted off. 3. remove screw at top left and top right from front top panel. 4. pull plastic front panel along top edge to release front top panel. (watch for sharp edges) 5. Swing top up and over onto top of dryer. 6. Unplug light and door switch. 7. remove four screws at top of large lower panel. 8. lift panel up a bit and off. 9. unplug sensor plug at bottom allowing panel with door to be set aside. 10. gas dryer has dime sized high limit thermostat on left front side of burner chamber. Has two wires on it, with a small pin in the center. Push the pin in. Reassemble and clean out vent, eliminating flexible venting, replacing with rigid aluminum piping and elbows. Outside vent should have a four inch vent flap opening, not just a two inch if it is that style.
