Tumble Dryer Help Forum

Hello

What does it mean if a tumble dryer isn't getting hot?

Other than it won't dry the clothes, I mean...

It seems to get warm initially but doesn't get beyond that after about 10 minutes, then just seems to be lukewarm from then.

Are they controlled by a thermostat? I presume so.

Thanks in anticipation; you people have never let me down so far! Our Bosch fridge is still going strong 5 years after I repaired it.

Make sure the vent is not blocked and has good airflow.This model has a thermostat at the front which can give trouble sometimes

Thanks! Vent seems OK.

I had a brief look for the thermostat but I couldn't find it...

Well, I found it, but I don't see how it could come out without taking the thing apart...

I didnt say you didnt have to take it apart of course you do !! ( At least take the right side panel off any way )
