Bosch WVD24520 GB/01

Hi, This machine is fine on all but drying.
When set on timed drying, water valve operates for only a short time, dryer motor then moves a fraction then stops, 1 min later machine stops, no fault code displayed then 1.5 mins later interlock is released as if there is no power!
When dryer is set on auto dry, water again only goes in for a short time then stops, dryer motor then fires up…but stops a few seconds later.. heater doesn`t come on at all.
Power to heater but no switched neutral..
Not worked on one of these before and am pulling what little hair I have left..
Can the team shed a little light?
Thanks
Paul

Don’t know for absolute certain mind you, but as a rule the valve coil (duff valve) is a regular cause for these symptoms.

Thanks for that Martin but regret have already changed the valve.
By the way, are these machines prone to creating a lot of steam from the soap drawer?..

That would suggest a problem with a toc, ntc, or stat.
And so would a steam-deformed soap drawer 😉 .

All condenser dryers have this problem when no cold water is passing through the condenser. So time to look at that flow of water through the condenser I reckon. Either the nozzle is blocked, it’s bunged-up with fluff or BOTH!
