My tumble dryer has lost heat, i have been told to reset the thermostat. Where is this located

peter coulthart, August 2008

I've just opened mine up - it's under the back panel - it's the bit that 'bulges out' - approx 8 screws.

Inside you will see some heating elements with two disk-like sensors screwed onto the element chassis.

It doesn't look like they are repairable (one of mine is faulty - it's permanently open circuit) so I'm off to do some research to find a replacement.

Not a good idea to bypass it!

Hope this helps.
