    My Bosch WFT2800 washer dryer makes clothes wetter on the drying cycle. I have tried wash and dry cycle and then dry cycle only. It happens on both.
    The machine still gets hot and the drum spins. I have drained and cleaned pump at bottom and ran a dry cycle and it worked, the clothes dried. After that it went back to making them wetter again. Does anybody have any further suggestions other than drain the pump before every use!
    Thanks

    Does your drain go into a seperate outlet or into the sink trap?

    Condensors require cold water to work, does your drum start to fill with water during the dry cycle?

    If the pump is not restricted (sink trap?) then overfilling with water could be the fault, some dryer water valves have restrictors in them to prevent overfilling whilst in drying mode. Try partially closing the cold water supply whilst on dry to see if it works with less supply, simulating a working restrictor.

    your condenser is blocked, I think that appliance has a cleaning cycle you are supposed to run every so often. Look on the programme guide i think its called a defluff or someting like that. Run that programme a couple of times and see if it makes a difference. If it is blocked badly it will need an engineer as its a major job to remove it for cleaning.
