Hello im looking to know what readings should you get from the two stats at back of heater. The heating element seems fine but dryer wont heat up.one stat has a white dot on back and the other has a yellow one which means?… many thanks in advance . :rolls:

Both should read closed circuit. One is a running thermostat that cuts in & out all the time, the other one is a safety cut out that can go open circuit if it senses over temperature. Theres another thermostat above the door opening on the inside of drum that controls the heater as well, it is most likely its faulty.

what do you mean closed circuit?iam getting a reading of about 1.6ohms on each then it drops down is this correct.
Re: zanussi td 4113 tumble dryer
A switch (thermostat) can be either open circuit or closed circuit. So if the contacts of the switch are open it will read high resistance, if it’s closed it will read low resistance. 1 ohm by the way is low resistance. Have you checked the thermostat that I advised may be at fault above the door of inner tub?
