    6.3AMP FUSE GONE,WHEN YOU PRESS START.
    IS THIS A MOTOR OVERLOAD FUSE?
    PUT NEW MOTOR ON AND ALL OK FOR ABOUT A WEEK.
    BEEN BACK TODAY SAME FUSE GONE.
    COULD THIS BE A FAULT ON NEW MOTOR?
    HAVE I MISSED SOMETHING?
    THIS DRYER IS ON 24/7 IN A REST HOME!
    ANY HELP!

    Yes it is a motor overload fuse, I had one that blew 3 fuses in the space of a couple of weeks, I chaged the motor and all was ok. The motor part number is: 481236138027 – £126 at Masterpart.

    Also try taking the cowling off at the front and clear all the crud from the filter housing and fan, may be just getting to hot (Assuming you havent already done that)
