    Guys

    need urgent help..

    Twice I replaced thermostats, it works for a day and again it breaks and blows with cold air.

    Any help on this highly appreciated.

    Thx

    At a guess you’ve got a problem with airflow, check it’s all clear.

    Thx Kwatt

    I have cleaned the condenser part etc., how do I check the airflow at all?

    Help appreciated.

    Clean inside the door panel ducting, take out the condenser unit and ensure all the slats are clear of fluff (best cleaned with a high pressure hose!). Clean the fine mesh filter thoroughly (may need a rinse through if any of the tiny holes are clogged?). Reassemble that lot and run the machine again.

    You should feel a strong flow of cool air being drawn into the front right-hand inlet once everything is clean. Replace the thermostats again (I guess if they’ve blown?). Always allow the dryer to finish the last 10 minutes of each and every drying cycle. And clean the fine filter after every load.

    That should cover it…? 😉
