Hotpoint TCYL 757C Flashing

[Adge]

My dryer started flashing all buttons and the lights on the right flashed on the 3h light.
I read that it could be the thermostat so I changed the whole heating element as it looked a little worse for wear.
Now I’m getting an the error lights flashing again but the light on the right has changed to the light that shows the condenser symbol.

It works and heats fine for a few minutes and then shuts off.

I can post a picture of the dryer if that would be useful?

yes pic would be good although due to size constraints you may have to hose off site

your first fault was fault 4. not heat detected this was because light 3 was lit counting from the bottom

which light is lit now ?
if its one light above then its fault 8 heater problem

What would cause fault 8?
ive had a mooch and says to check the J4 module but i don’t know where that is.

Any help is appreciated

[electrofix]

well first off check your heater as you have just replaced it

I e just checked the wiring to the one a took off and the orange and brown and the blue and grey were mirrored the wrong way. I have taken the pins out, swapped them around and just testing it out.
