hi i have just replaced the heater element to my tumble dryer as clothing wasnt warming/drying have changed a new part as it was obviously broken but they are still not heating / drying any idea what could be causing this ( could it be a thermostat needs replacing to )
this machine is only 18 months old
2 sensors behind the rear cover about the size of 20p piece cost £13 to replace part number 1701583 one of them will have a grenn dot on the reverse. Simply remove old replace with new. Regards.

It may the thermostats, which are located just above the element. If you are looking at them one has a green dot, could you tell me if the wires going into that one are orange or blue as I pulled mine appart but didnt realise they were different until I had them in my hand
