I have a hotpoint aquarius TDC32 & I have changed stats quite a few times, if anything like mine its very easy, my stats are just at the back of the tumbledryer & you have to change the pair at the same time, the only important thing is to mark where which stat goes mines has one with green dot & one without, I once put them in the wrong way & it started smoking, so pen the colour on the back of your tumble dryer so you dont forget, the stats for mine, hotpoint sell them for £20 but I have been on amazon today where you can get them for £3.00 per pair plus postage, the local electrical shop sells them for £15 just shoes you the profit that they make. I'm not sure if yours will be the same stats but you can find them on ebay where you can see a picture of them ( ebay maybe a little more expensive there selling mine for £5.00 plus postage. If I can change the stats anyone can do it!
