    Siemens WT46E386gb/02 condenser Dryer
    Was stopping, thought it was pump flout assembly but its not.
    I have it in workshop,Started to cut out,
    Now it stops after a few minutes and flicks on and on and off including display for about a second and i can hear click from PCB i assume is the relay,PCB is over £200.
    Can anything else cause relay to cut out on PCB,

    Whip the board out and take a close look at those relay pins, I would. 😉

    Everything points to the board or connections too or from it. If the machine was ever exposed to damp at any point then chances are there’s verdigre on the contacts or a capacitor is discharging or a relay pitted and not staying engaged. I’m convinced the board is the issue and unless it can be repaired I would scrap it at this point…!!! 🙁

    I had the same proble, turned out to be the transformer on the board cutting out. Machine scrapped.
