Neff R4381X1GB Condenser dryer

Hi Guys, above appliance runs for 2-3 mins then the machine stops and the cupboard dry light flashes and machine beeps. Any ideas?

I think (wouldn’t swear to it though) that it refers to an overheat situation, i.e an airflow issue? 😕

Condenser is clean as a whistle.

Hi Guys,
if there are no blockages where do you look next? Is there a sensor of some kind that detects blockages? Where is it situated?

Cupboard dry is NTC 2 overheat i think. This is the NTC situated at the back in the heater area. It’s worth checking the heater as i had a similar Bosch appliance doing the same thing but all airways were clear. Found the heater badly degraded with metal filings all over the back where the heater coil was falling apart- fitted new heater and hey presto! overheat fault disappeared too , prob because the NTC was in the same area.
