My tumble dryer (a Bosch WTL 5500) "FILTER" light keeps coming on although I have cleared the door filter of any lint. I suspect some lint is caught somewhere inside the machine. Is there anyway of clearing it? Or do you think there is anything else I should look at? Thanks!
this is the first time i had this dryer today.the on light on but can,t get it to work when selecting programme for it

Just taken the filter apart (didn't even know it was there!) and the machine is working perfectly. Thank you so much for posting such relevant advice.

Thank you so much for this answer. I just found the button. I found a soft vacuum brush worked well.

I had the same problem... but now the machine is back in full function again.

I've got it fixed. There is a "button" like thing on the front just as you open the door - on the bottom right. Just press it in hard and the door at the bottom in front will open. Then just unhook the big filter and clean it under a tap. Do NOT scrape the inside with a knife.
