My Indesit Tumbledryer ( model IS60V) has a fault... it has two heat settings..but the blower blows cold air on both settings...
Is this an easy fix ...wot parts do I need ?

heater coils broke, thermostat sensor open, there are 2 or 3 sensors ontop of the heater channel, some are resetable with a pin though the small hole in the back of the sensor, some are not, some reset themselfs, some are not resetable, when u look at face of the sensor, it should dome out slighly, dont be tempted to push the dome in, if u do and it stays in, u will have to buy a new one, unless theres a pin hole in the bk. dont push a pin in the hole with unit pluged in. to test a thermostat sensor take off one spade clip and test with a meter on beep, if u hear a beep across the 2 two tags then its good, no beep, no good.

Only thing to suggest is, make sure there is more than 10 minutes on the dial as it only blows cold for the last period of the drying session. Confused me for a while when I was testing it out at the beginning.
