AEG model T59870 dryer needs two turns to dry clothes

[Haramo]

We have a AEG model T59870

Type P502867 tumble dryer. Prod no: 916 096 618 00

I ‘m not sure if somethign went wrong, after replacing motor pulley and tumble belt.

I opened the dryer once again to see if somethings wrong: tumble belt is firm and on its place, motor pulley is showing something as if it’s getting pieces away from if , bit by bit.

and an item almost touching the Tumble, I pushed it a little bit to the tumble then it has contact, I pushed it back, but have the feeling that it will keep making contact if the dryer is active.

See pictures dropbox link to show you the motor pulley how it looks like after two weeks use. the belt is correct installed.

I’m from Belguim, I found it online from a Dutch (The nederlands, our neigbours) online shop:

It should be a original one, … .

So I should send them the picture?

or can it be that something else causes this ?

[electrofix]

i cant think of anything that will cause it

does look like its gen but cant read the language very well

AEG and spares should be here somewhere

Dear

the clothes are still not completely dry.

and when the dryer finishes, there is a noise, this time it was higher and I recored it.

see dropbox link as I’m not allowed to upload aiff files.

if i read it correctly then this noise is there when the drum is stationary

if yes it will very likely be the pump

Dave

[Haramo]

Stationary = drum stopped

if I understood correctly then yes this noise only to hear at the end when drying is finished . Not always .

Could you send a link to this part ?

Thanks .

what is the function of this pump ? Can it cause the issue ( not drying good )I have ?

I have seen many names of pump : heat pump , condens pump , water supply pump, I want to know if one of these is the same as the one in the link.

[electrofix]

that pump pumps the water into the draw at the top. they can make a heck of a noise somtimes when they go wrong

heat pump is what does the drying. think of this dryer more like a dehumidifier in a case

Dave

[Haramo]

Ok thanks . So the waterpump needs to be replaced so the water can leave. We don’t use the draw but directly F to the drain , i read again the user manual , the tube that goes to the drain must not be to long , I never Cut the tube . Should this be a cause then I can cut it . As the drain is behind the dryer. Not even a 10 cm.

i also took some time to watch videos and started to clean : don’t know the name, see photo :

om the videos they could take it out and wash it . Mine is full with dust and don’t know how to disassemble this part , any help ?

[electrofix]

you cant take that out its part of the refigeration system

dont worry about the hose its fine. the noise if it is the pump, and its likley is due to worn bearings. had a few do this and the noise in beyond belief for something so small

Dave

[Haramo]

ok about the tube. The worm bearings , are they part of the pump or do I need to order them separately? I didn’t understand the latest sentence.
