RE: Siemens WT2100. Need to sort the wiring to the ring heater element at the back.

Russell, October 2013

Hi Russell sorry late reply been ill, you have a crosslee tumble dryer marketed by siemens. I didn't realize you had all the wires off thought it was just the heater. When I change these heaters I make a diagram before dismantling every time so don't remember all leads. I can tell you one blue from the reset goes on the double terminal of the element(the one that joins both element ends together on right) One black from the thermostat goes on the left element tag, the red goes on the middle element tag. But cant remember the configuration of the terminal block off hand. I will see if I still have one of my diagrams but usually when I have finished the job I discard them. Otherwise when I next meet one of these I can relay it to you but that may not be very soon. Cheers

Yes, you are right it is a double element but its more complicated than 3 wires. There are the following wires. From the reset button - 2 blue wires. From the thermostat - 2 black wires. From the machine - 2 black/white wires, 1 earth, 1 red, 1 black, 1 blue. Really appreciate your help.

Is the ring element a double ring element, and what are the wire colours . If its the one i'm thinking of they will be red, black and pale blue (3 wires) if so I can advise.
