Pumps working but it did cut out again after a about 20 minutes running.
Not sure I can face stripping it right down.
Yeah I’ve just been watching a video! Not sure if there’s a way I can test it other than putting a load on and seeing if the door fills up
I wonder if there is an issue with the pump? It’s running perfectly at the moment. It certainly hasn’t run this long since the fault occurred. Does the reservoir fill up and then get pumped in to the door for emptying?
Ok, so I checked the suppressor. It’s like new. But. I decided to lean it forward and have a look underneath to see if I could get to anything else and a load of water came out. So I guess there is some sort of reservoir in the bottom which I think I can see. Is there some sort of float switch or something in there? Surely that wouldn’t trip the breaker though would it? I guess it could be causing condensation inside though causing a short somewhere. I’ve emptied it best I can and stuck a load of kitchen roll in to soak it up. It’s currently running and has been for a few minutes.
if this has fixed it, what would be the cause for the build up of water? Poorly maintained filters? We probably don’t clean the front filter or the condenser as much as we should.
Thanks again. Yes I did try another circuit because the socket was part of a new circuit we had fitted in the kitchen. It was my first thought. It made no difference.
The heater seems dry. It all seems dry.
I’ll can’t really get to any more parts without removing the drum so I might have to get it in the garage and strip it down. No doubt the mrs will be nagging for a new dryer
