Hi,
I have a problem with my Mother In Law's Creda T601CW Tumble dryer (electric). It blows hot then a few minutes later blows cold five minutes later back to hot. I've taken the front (exhaust?) thermostat out this is located inside the door hole. There is continuity across it. I then taped the two wires together and started the dryer up and it stays hot all the time. My question is does anyone know if these front stats reset themselves, if so then this would be the answer to the problem as by the time I remove the stat it may have reset itself and so showing continuity on the multimeter.
Also i notice the heater element coils are red hot at the top and hot but not red on the bottom of the element. Is this normal and is it due to the top one being sheltered from the main blast from the blower?
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks to any replies
Jon
