  My Bosch WTA3606GB sensor dyer kept stopping and the empty filter warning alarm kept sounding, clothes wouldn't dry. I was just on the verge of buying a brand new £400 machine when a guy at work said that if the old thermostat low down inside the door reveal was faulty it could register higher temperatures indicating restricted airflow, hence indicating the filter is full when it wasn't. I ordered the sensor from E Spares, it came within 3 days. Fitting involved unscrewing the top and the right hand facing side panel of the machine, from there just a simple push fit connector to change the sensor. Machine fixed, £400 saved. I can't believe something so simple can cause someone without knowledge to have to either replace their machine or pay a fortune in engineers fees, mine was fixed in 25 mins and under £20. Well done e- Spares, I will definitely use you again - Excellent!.

• Q I have changed the heater element, but still no heat, how do I know if the thermostat is faulty, what should the resistance readings be for hot, warm and cold? 1 Answer

  I have checked the sump pump and it is running, everything else has been cleaned.

    Hi there. The first thing you need to do is make sure your multimeter is set to the 'ohms' function and the range is set to the lowest ohms range. Attach the multimeter test leads to the connection terminals on the thermostat. For a fully working thermostat with an open circuit, the LCD should read 'OL', '0.00' or '0.5'. If it's a number higher than 0.5, the thermostat will need to be replaced.

    Hi Veseyan6, if the element hasn't solved the problem, it's very likely going to be the thermostat causing the problem. Check out this video for help: http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/tumble-dryers/a/9/1284/how-to-fix-a-dryer-thats-not-heating-up-hotpo.html

• Q does this control the heater for the dryer? 1 Answer

  model wtl6106gb/07. I recently replaced the heater element but still not working properly. Is this easy to fit?

    Hi Hondacivic, this thermostat monitors temperature in the dryer - it ensures that the element is heating to the correct temperature. As for fitting it, I wouldn't attempt it if you weren't 100% confident. The stat sits at the bottom right in the frame where you enter the clothes.

• Q is this the right thermostat 1 Answer

  is this the thermostat that turns off machine if your filter is blocked model No wtv74104gb0/1

    Hi, in extreme cases a blocked filter will cause the temperature in the dryer to become so high that the thermostat will cut out. Most of the time a measure of a fault thermostat is if the temperature in the dryer is either too hot or too cold. Check out this help article on how to clean your tumble dryer for help with your blocked filter: http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/tumble-dryers/a/9/120/cleaning-your-tumble-dryer.html
