Zanussi Washer Dryer ZWD1471W

[lyndy]

Got a Zanussi washer dryer, ZWD1471W, porduct number 914601126/00

There is no dry on the machine but all dryer parts are working correctly. When putting machine through diagnostics the dry side works but not when in use on normal programme. In diagnostics the machine is giving off random fault codes.

Need to know what the problem with the dryer may be and how to clear the fault codes that are coming up in diagnositcs mode.

Thanks

If it works as a washing machine then the dryer element is probably OK! If it stops at some point in the washing cycle with start/pause flashing, then it may well have a low insulation problem (<40Mohm) which would most likely be the drier element but with the weather like it is could alternatively be condensation somewhere.
Not too sure if it would work during diagnostics if it was this, but common fault with these driers is a disconnection at the ntc, down the bottom on the right, stuck in the tub-to-condenser hose. Two orange wires – they have a stressful life down there.
