MY CREDA TCR13 DRYER WORKS FOR A FEW MINS THEN STOPS?

TCR13 WORKS FOR A FEW MINS THEN STOPS , IT DOES HEAT UP. I HAVE CLEANED ALL ACCESSIBLE FILTERS AND LOOKED FOR ANY BLOCKAGES CAN ANYONE HELP?

The problem with the Dryer is the Relay. the dryer starts turning forward and then it should reverse the drum but instead it stops totally because the Relay is faulty. the relay can be ordered from

Hope this helps.

I have the same problem. I can't offer a solution but I the creda has two thermal trips. The first just switches the machie off the 2nd whihc is set at a higher temp is like a fuse and only trips once. As they are easy to change I sort of hoped my problem was due to the first of these tripping too early so changed them. ( they come in pairs.) However it did not help. I now think it might be the temperature sensor thermostat if the heater does not go off then it will trip.
