Candy CMD 146 Waher/Dryer, no hot air on dryer

[bouncingnrg]

If i put the wash on a 60deg+ i can tell the water is heating up ok as the front door is quite warm/hot. On the dryer cycle there is no hot air what so ever, I've taken the top off and reset the botton on the thermo switchs - That worked for a minute but then tripped again. I've checked the filter behind the bottom/front panel and that's all clear.

It there anything else i could be missing? anyone have any other thoughts? Could it be the Thermo switch itself?

Thanks
Mark

Does the fan actually run? Have you tried cleaning the vapor condenser, fan & heater boxes? Have you checked the NTC & thermostats with a multimeter?
This model was originally equipped with 2 x 172C thermostats. But after problems with random tripping Candy recommended retrofitting 182C thermostats (Candy P/N 41024208).

Thanks for the response.
Yea the fan still goes..... It still makes the same humming blowing noice it always did, but no hot air.

I have done the other things you mentioned yet, do you know if there's such a thing as a service manual for them or a generic one for washer dryers? I wouldn't want to start to pull apart the wrong things

You won't get a service manual but it isn't rocket science. The heater box is the aluminum thing with the thermostats/NTC on top. You may pick something up on the net...youtube maybe?
