hi this guys is coming up e 11 the pot state dryer limiter state is reading 37.8 ohms that normal ? also the small connector with the thin wires .the wires have come out while taking it off 😡 . wonder if its that . but what is the best way to fix the wires. ?i had a few spares of heater ones , cut some off with the wire still in .and just bullet connected them .got none left . any one got any other ideas to fix the wires ?i connected the two wires together . to see if customer could just get a few washes done , didnt help still got e11:rolleyes:?

connecting the wires together wont help as it looks for shorted or open ntc’s

hoover only sell complete harness but you may find similar connectors somewhere else. these connectors are called insulation displacement connectors as the insulation is broken as the wire is pushed into a metal fork. you can use a small screwdriver to try to ease the wire back in

hi can you get the wires back in decent enough its so tiny tho 37,8 ohms normal for these states ?

58 quid for a wiring harness and probably take about 3 hrs to fit all the other connectors .. rediculous:mad:

can you buy the we connectors anywhere ?:rolleyes:

Does anyone know what the ohms reading should be on this dryer heater state limiter ?

[electrofix]

the overheat stats are just switches so zero ohms when closed meg ohms when open

hi i mean the one at the front off the dryer heater casing ?the thermal limiter ntc ?

[electrofix]

if you are telling me the NTC on the front of the duct is reading 11 ohms when not in circuit i would say thats too low by miles

Hi it’s reading 39..6 ohms

[adv]

It’s a e11 fault code

[electrofix]

i would say that far too low
41032956 should be the part no

never seen such a rangs of prices for the same part

Qualtex £5.58
connect £15.53
aswo £16.29

although Aswo and Connect have alternative non gen parts

as for the connector, had a look around but no luck yet. see if you can see a make on the old plug

hi yeah ave got a spare connector will have to join it .39,6 ohms i thought that might be normal ?as you said if it was faulty you thought it would be open circuit . i have a zanussi type one it only reads 5.8 ohms mmmm ?:rolleyes:

[electrofix]

have had them short and open circuit

5.8 ohms is really suspect. most of the times these things go down in resistance when hot and at 5 ohms there is not much room to be accurate

have you got an old heater ntc to link across as a maybe test

going up later to have another look..:eek:
