Went to this the other day, Vent hose was blocked at the wall, Unblocked, reset stat, All seemed ok but a few weeks later and cust says it keeps overheating – The machine and the clothes etc feel red hot and it pops the stat (which they have reset themselves a few times but feel its getting too hot to use now).
I’m sure there’s no blockage and the drum seem to be turning fine, Any ideas?Re: Bosch WTA3003GB/01 Overheating Issues
Not sure if this is the Crossley type from the model number (not all that familiar with Bosch mod no) but if it is I had one not so long ago where the vent stat which is by the filter had all crudded over inside the chamber and wasn’t sensing the tempreture properly and overheating – worth a check and might save a headache 😉

Ollie, check that the motor start capacitor is ok. A weak cap can stop the drum rotating when loaded and cause safety to trip due to lack of airflow. Wiz
