Filter Care Light is on Hoover TV630 Tumble Dryer?

The filter care light is staying on and the dryer will not heat up
although it does still turn.
There is no fluff in the filter.
I have lost the manual and cannot cure the problem.

Just like to add that I bought a replacement Hoover tumble dryer heater etc, followed above instructions, and it's working again.

Big thanks guys, so glad I came across you!

Thanks, David

You need to order a new heater element and therostat ( same unit), only about £35, and fitting is very easy- undo the screws to the rear silver cover, this exposes the element which is held in by two screws. The next bit is a bit fiddly but just be slow and patient. Disconect the old unit, then connect the new- just push fit connections. Then screw back on cover and job done.

the filter light staying on constantly is almost certainly a sign that the heater element is not working.the filter light is wired through the element and if the element is faulty a signal is passed up to the filter warning light.this causes the warning light to stay on constantly.
