EDIT: Trying this again
Hi folks
Got a 3 and bit year old Smeg WDI12C7 and an ongoing problem with the TOC tripping. I replaced it last year and it worked for maybe 6 months but now keeps tripping again. At first it was maybe every 3 times we used the dryer, but now it's every time after about 10 minutes.
I've replaced the thermistor now, and the TOC again in the last month but still no joy. Had the lid off the drying tunnel thing, cleaned out any fluff, same with the fan. Hoovered out what I could see.
I've run the dryer with the door open and seem to be getting reasonable airflow in to the drum but it cuts out after about 10 minutes or so.
Any ideas what the problem may be?
I also think on a wash cycle that the clothes are perhaps slightly wetter than they have been previously. Could this be related?
What happens to the heat in the drum? Where does it go?
