Either front ntc or heater by the sound of it check with customer if it’s heating up

thanks it heats up ok the customer thought it was getting too hot but i ran it a few times and it worked ok except it stopped several times can the ntc be tested easily

Yes can be tested from pcb I think from memory it’s two yellow wires that goes down to ntc where is it kept if it’s not stored in a house more than likely ntc fault as this dryer is designed to work at ambient temp

this might sound silly but I once had a machine that had a special feature to do just what your describing in order to prevent creases forming at the end of a cycle. cant for the life of me remember what it was but are you on a fully timed or auto cycle?
