Creda T622cw wont stay on with heat

[leeroypenmut]

Last week my tumble dryer blow the main house fuse, after opening it up i could get the heater working or the motor but not both(Fuse blow if tried)!!

Worked out it was the timer so got new one, but now the front switch wont stay on when on cold, and when on warm or hot it wont spin(tries to but only moves couple of mm)

So:-

wont stay on – Cold, Warm or Hot
wont spin – Warm or Hot

Any help please

maybe Capacitor, Relay

Thanks

I hate to say this, but it sounds more like you’ve dropped a stitch when wiring the timer. Better double check on your diagram.

thanks for your reply, but the wiring is ok(double checked & checked again)

when it kept blowing the fuse it was arcing across the front switch??

Is the front swicth some sort of latching switch??

if i bypass the switch(join wires together) it stays on when on cold, but when on warm motor goes half speed and stops on hot.

Would that be the capacitor??

thanks for your quick reply 🙂

Relay not switching!

checked the old timer and the contacts inside were all burn out!

When removing the front panel the Warm/Hot switch & On switch may have got mixed up, Two red wires to the relay & two Blue/Grey to the heater?

Relay not switching on?

Any help Please

Thanks
