Thanks nomadpaul & helo_75.

Looks like you were correct with the element, it looks shot without even measuring the resistance!

Can you just confirm that there should be 2 x male spade contacts on the element which join the round metal bits that disappear inside the machine?

My element has one with a grey wire attached and just the round metal on the other side with a grey wire hanging there, not connected to anything. I did find a few bits and pieces under the wm the other day, but assumed they were from a previous under warrenty repair and have thrown them. If memory serves me correct, they look like they may have fallen off the element!

PS. Cannot find a new element for my machine. Any other machine with the same element?

Really appreciate everyones help.

Thanks for the reply.

Will have a look at the element later today (with wm unplugged), but thought we would give a tumble dry a bash and i can feel heat from the door.

Is this a sign that the heating element is ok or does the heat from the tumble dryer come from elsewhere?

You may note from this question, i am not a wm engineer!
