Good afternoon everyone,
The above tumble dryer appears fine for around 15-20 minutes, prior to the above fault developing.
I’ve cleaned the ducting/flow sections of the dryer, which weren’t bad, and the problem remained.
So, I renewed the front NTC sensor, as I suspected it was faulty, although the Ohms readings of old and new sensors were similar when cold.
However, the fault remains, and I don’t know where to concentrate on next… the heater TOC’s are both fine.
Any help appreciated…
jontyI like you would assume its an NTC or the difference between 2 NTC’s that tell the machine the filter is clogged. since yours is a vented machine it will be drawing cold air so we can eliminate the air being too hot as it leaves the filter. my guess would be the element NTC. was that the one you changed ?

Good evening all,
Well, I thought I’d cured the fault with the above dryer as I replaced the suspect element NTC, and it was fine when I tested and monitored the dryer for 20-30 min’s on a couple of programmes.
However, customer has now called to report that it has the original fault! (i.e. runs for around 15 min’s prior to aborting cycle, with “filter light” lit)
Should I now suspect main board, as struggling to diagnose?
