Hi Dave,

Both sensors arrived this morning and I have now fitted both……… unfortunately it hasn’t fixed the issue.

Any other thoughts? There’s hot air going into the drum, air is being passed over the condenser, the filter is clean so is condenser, pump appears to be working, the heater is clear, the air inlet is also clear.

Thanks for your help!!

No fluff on the heater…………….. lots of bloody screws to undo lol 😀

Thanks for your help, I’ll get 216 and 207 ordered and see what happens.

Dave you’ve been a massive help and it is definitely appreciated!! Stay safe!!

Thanks Dave, I’m think if Im going to order some parts I might as well do it all in one go, what would be the 2nd and 3rd parts if the replacement front NTC sensor doesnt fix it………….

Hi Dave, thanks again for helping, Im happy to spend up to around £100…… what would you recommend?

Thanks again

[Willow19]

Not working unfortunately, still finishing with damp towels, getting dryer each time though lol

What is the connection between the silver bars on the inside of the drum and the sensor beneath the filter? Do I need to replace both? I dont suppose you would have a link to the correct part?

Just used a scouring pad and gave them a good go over, have turned the dryer back on……….. lets see what happens

[Willow19]

Hi Dave,

The cycle to dry the towels was short lived as it finished rather quicker than normal and still leaving the towels hot and damp. The silver bars appear clean but will give them another go over. Any recommendations on how to do this properly or is it just the case of get a cloth and wiping? Theres no build up on them and they do look clean, but I can also appreciate we cant always see what is coating the sensor.

Thanks again Dave, could you do me one last favour and point me int he direction of which sensor I need to buy? Thank you again, you’ve been very helpful!

[Willow19]

So the kids shouldnt be playing with then lol

Which sensor, the silver bars on the inside of the door?

[Willow19]

I appreciate the help by the way

[Willow19]

I’m currently running the dryer with side off, is this ok or would mess with the hot / cold cycle of the condenser?

So located the sensors on the inside, they appeared clean but gave them a wipe anyway. Just put some wet towels in to see if anything we’ve done has changed anything.

In the meantime if you have any other suggestions I’m happy to have another look! It’s a good distraction from my actual job lol

Hi Dave,

The clothes are hot and partially dry, similar to a hot towel at a restaurant. The container does have water in it but not as much as I would expect to see, which is why I checked the pump. Could it be the pump isn’t working as well as it should, but then if thats the case would I not expect pooling by the condenser?

[Willow19]

Hi Dave,

I can see through the condenser in both directions albeit its slightly trickier looking through left to right as the gaps are tiny, still clear though. I’ve ran the dryer without the condenser in place briefly to check that air is being blown from the air intake to the condenser and this appears to be blowing.

Thanks for your help so far, any other suggestions?

[Willow19]

Morning Dave,

Thanks for replying again. I washed the condenser in the shower so I’m hoping it should ok.

what would be the next place to check? I’ve had the lid and side off to check if the pump is clogged which pushes the water to the water container but all seemed ok.

Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks again

Hi Dave,

Thabks for the reply, all is clear, you can see through the condenser and intake is also clear…..
