Beko tumble dryer DTKCE80021 loose piece found on cleaning

[nic11]

Hi,

I have a Beko tumble dryer and was cleaning the condenser for the first time. When I was about to put it back in the slot I noticed a small white plastic cap with a yellow stick (see image) on the floor, but I cannot see where it's come from.

Its 15mm long has a two way arrow embossed and top part is flat so as to allow someone to hold twist. Can anyone please help or have a suggestion? The dryer model is DTKCE80021

Looks like a wire crimp someone has used to insulate the end of a wire. Any sparks in the family that could have had it in a pocket?

A long shot, but do you have a diabetic in the family?
It looks similar to a safety lancet...

No, but it seems that it's likely one of those (now thinking about it), thanks.

My wife had a stroke almost two weeks ago, so there was an ambulance crew round and I think they did a test as part of their assessment.

I'm so sorry, I hope she is recovering well.
That does seem the likely explanation - it really doesn't look to be anything broken from the drier itself.
