    hoover washer dryer

    model hnwl 6136-80 s/n 31000897 0512 0620


    customer complained that her machine was not getting hot enough to dry her clothes but the manual reset stat on the dryer element box cuts out. the elements/thermister and blower motor all apear to be ok (thermister has resistance) i had a visual inspection of the small module at the base of the machine which appears to be ok.wiring looms look ok. dryer valve is working, no blockages found in ducts, pump runs ok. any ideas???

    Double check for blockages in the right angle duct where the condenser pipe mates to the drum.

    I had one that kept tripping the reset stats, even fitted a higher rated Hotpoint TOC as a test. It was a Candy produced machine about 2 years old. Eventually had to change the dryer fan motor, even though it apppeared to run perfectly. It must have been seizing after getting hot because it cured the fault instantly.
