Hi,
I seem to be replacing the thermal cut-outs (1701583) on the rear of my Indesit G74C condensing tumble dryer on a more and more frequent basis. The machine is 4 years old and the last set have lasted only 3 months, the set before only 1 month but thought that might have just been a bad set. I hoovered out all the fluff I could find.
Can anybody help?.
Thanks, Barrie...

Check to see if you can see through the condenser filter and make sure the fluth filter is clean. take the back cover off and put your hand at the back of the drum. the hole is above or under the heater element. see if there is any fluth or hair stuck around the drum. remove it. if the problem still persists you will neeed to replace heater element.

I'm having the exact same problem. Not sure if its because its used too much. Trying to decide if I should just get a new dryer.
