part no 8996470716805

AEG are showing as not available but gives a number to ring

https://shop.aeg.co.uk/search?q=:rel…nc:91601107702

the website you listed above lists no stock either

lamp could have a short on it causing this

you will never get schematics for any board you just have to work it out

Dave

[electrofix]

your not looking for diagrams
find the relays and check all solder joints

bought a faulty AEG dryer off ebay some years ago for £8 and one bad solder joint in the motor circuit stopped it

Dave

as a quick tip
to hold the cap in place when you only have one hand use string looped over the top of the cap which holds it in place while you put the nut and washer on

Dave

[electrofix]

I doubt it too
am expecting at least 12V

did you test with lamp in or out of circuit ?

Dave

[electrofix]

ok that makes more sense

full model no is LTH37700

overheating problems are often the front stat

https://shop.electrolux.co.uk/laundry/tumble-dryers/thermostats/tumble-dryer-thermostat/p/8996471603812

the dryness is set by a conductivity sensor which consists of 2 brushes running on the drum to 2 electrodes that should be electrically isolated

check brushes and isolation

never even knew that firm existed and am only 5 miles away lol

later belts are elastic so dont need adjusting, these early belts do not stretch so the motor hinges on 2 bolts while the third is in sliding slot

loosen the bolts and slide motor to closest point to drum, then put the belt on, pull motor out to tention belt ( no too tight) and re tighten bolts

Dave

[electrofix]

tried to look it up but the model is incomplete

are there any other numbers like a pnc number ?

Dave

[electrofix]

correct belt is this one

https://shop.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/hp0825-washing-machine-drive-belt
the motor needs to be adjusted to get correct fit

Dave

[electrofix]

you would have to ask the shop directly
but a lot of suppliers will not give a warranty unless it is fitted by a manufacturers approved engineer. I have the same problem as any part i fit i have to guarentee and no recourse to the supplier

you will have rights under the sale of goods act to say it must be in good condtion and fit for purpose etc

have you looked at the old switch to make sure its the fault ?

Dave

[electrofix]

short answer is with great difficulty

you have to take the complete front off the dryer and the front seal unit and you can just about struggle a bit to get at it by wedging the drum up to create maximum room. you can still only get one hand it which makes getting the nut off and back real fun

to get clear access you have to remove the drum

Dave

[electrofix]

think the pump cover is under or just behind the motor

Dave

[electrofix]

my next job would be to check the motor windings for continuity

if ok

check pcb relays for bad solder joints
