The machine washes fine but does not dry the clothes. It goes through the drying cycle but there is no heat produced and no error code just the word error.
Disconnect the power before attempting any work. Use of an RCD (plug in power breaker) is recommended.
Most likely a blown heater element in the drier unit. Also check the fan in the drier unit - if its not rotating, the element will have overheated and possibly triggered a thermal cutout device which removes the power to the heater element. Some thermal cutouts can be reset, most need replacing. Only way to test is to disconnect the wiring and take resistance readings across the element and any thermal cutout device with a multimeter.
