Most likely timer, might be worth checking cap’s ok first though.

If you’ve got a plug in energy monitor you can easily check if heaters switching off by monitoring the amps (or watts).

Re: hotpoint dryer

Replace the heater complete with stats & you should find that will cure it……DON’T ASK ME WHY!

But it works!

by the way stats should be 1703200 for this one 😀

Or get a clamp meter (Maplins) and you get a meter and a clamp. I’ve used one for14 years and couldn’t do without it.

Got to agree with Rob on this, whilst I have both devices, the clamp meter scores far better than the 13amp plug-in meter due to the simple fact you don’t need to plug it in! 😀
