Hi,
I was hoping that someone could help with an issue with my tumble dryer, I recently bought a new element as my old one had gone. Although it is the correct part, which has 5 wires going to a block. It also has 2 additional blue wires and I am unsure what I am supposed to do with these. I have copied the wiring from the old element, mimicking the connection to the white spot thermostat and the one that looks different, presumably the thermister which is on the right (middle on the old element) Everything now works but the dryer will only work on high heat. Would anyone happen to know how these should be wired exactly? When the new element arrived, the 2 blue wires were connected to the centre thermostat, the one with yellow spot on it. This thermostat is now connect as a loop through from the first as per the old element, but I fear this may be incorrect.
Any help would be appreciated!
Many thanks in advance
