Hotpoint TCL780 tumble dryer

[AMS]

This machine displays no signs of life at all. Got power to the main module. Is this a straightforward module change or am I missing something? Is this a common fault on these machines? Do the modules come pre-programmed?
Cheers all,

Dave

Re: Hotpoint TCL780 tumble dryer

Would that be on the element or the front one Jim?

Catches a few out this. As above go with the one shot.

Replace and fin the cause of failure. Air flow blockage, filters, motor capacitor.

Re: Hotpoint TCL780 tumble dryer

Yours should have the later A2 module, neutral is not routed through the toc.

PM me an e-mail address and I will send you some info.

Jim.
