Bosch WTE84103GB/08 Fault codes

[GlassMango]

I have a Bosch WTE84103GB/08 which has ceased to function.
When plugged in and the dial moved from the off position, there is a few seconds’ of silence and then three of the four status indicator lights begin to flash (i.e. “Drying”, “Iron Dry” and “Anti-Crease/End” flash but NOT “Cupboard Dry”) and the unit sounds four rapid beeps three times over (i.e. 12 beeps in all).

I have:
Cleaned “air cooler” condenser thoroughly (a bit of fluff but not too much)
Emptied condensation collector
Cleaned fluff filter (was fairly clean)
Powered down and unplugged the machine and waited for 24 hours.

I now expect I have to go into the machine to clean out more.
But I guess the fault code of the flashing and the 4+4+4 beeps must mean something? Previous similar but not identical posted queries seem to suggest it might be any of:

Thermal fuse tripped/blown
Congestion in pump or pump inlet/outlet hoses
Jammed sensor on water float switch

Is anyone out there able to furnish anything more specific on what this fault code might mean for this specific model or how I might clear the fault?

Any help greatly appreciated. Needless to say the unit’s out of guarantee or I’d be on the ‘phone to Bosch already!

Thanks!

Re: Bosch WTE84103GB/08 Fault codes

I have a Bosch WTV7410 tumble dryer with exactly the same problem: drying + iron dry + anti-crease lights flashing after a few seconds from switching on but no other activity. Does anyone know what this fault code is? I assume it is one of the temperature sensors but would be good to get confirmation before buying replacements. Any help would be much appreciated.
