Zanussi Condensor Dryer TC484w - where is the thermostat?
I have replaced the broken drum belt but now the dryer does not appear to be heating up. I do not know the history of this machine and so do not know whether or not it heated up before. I assumed it did and that the snapped belt was the problem.
I would be most grateful if anyone can tell me where to find the thermostat. I have the drum out, but there is no sign of it, or wires going to it.
I took the heater off. The thermostats appeared to be solid and not squeezable - and, in this case, are not open-circuit.
I read a post that suggested that there might be a stat in the ducting. Any ideas about this?

Ah, thank you, somehow I managed to miss your answer before I posted. I didn't see anything like that but then I wasn't looking for it. I will take it apart again and see if I can press anything!

Ah, just found one, inside the door/drum at the top. There appear to be two more on the heating element case. None of these appears to be open circuit.
That probably leaves one more thermostat - or something else that I have missed - and which is causing the no-heat problem.
Your help would be appreciated.
