Re: Hoover TV630 – Filter Care Light on TOC not o/c

My TV630 had exactly the same fault. I ordered a spare heater from the online shop after reading comments on this forum.
This has done the trick and the dryer is working perfectly. Many thanks for an excellent service.

The original had a blown (o/c) thermal fuse. The replacement heater is slightly different in construction – there is a black cylindrical component with 2 tags marked with a temperature (I assume a thermostat) but it does not have the same thin metallic tubular thermal fuse as the original but instead there is a metallic cylindrical component about the same size as the black one, also with 2 tags. What exactly is this?

The replacement is also heavier and more robust than the original, so maybe it will last a bit longer.
