  • Check the thermal cut outs on the top of the heater as they have probably failed. The heater will probably require replacement as I dont think the cut outs are available for this model. By Sherlock - Birmingham - 22 August 2013
  • There is no heat , does this mean I will need a new tumble dryer relay/pcb ( printed circuit board ) ? And if so, is it easy to fit ? By mandi - - 21 August 2013

    Check if any heat is felt in the drum when it stops as there may be a heater fault.

  • my hoover tumble had the same symptoms - i replaced the relay but it still tripped the mains. Turned out to be a burned out motor causing a direct short circuit one of the windings. By portadownred - Northern Ireland - 15 November 2011

    you would need to test the rest of the dryer heating circuit to eliminate any issues with the wiring but it is likely to be the PCB, check this video for more help www.youtube.com/watch?v=trJXdqNBn7M&t just copy and paste into your browser.

    If the water in the base has not drained to the container it may shut off the heating to prevent leaking and damage. Check the pressure switch under the drum.

Answer this question

I replaced the on on switch fitting but still have same problem. If you hold the on switch in the dryer will work but as soon as you release it is will not stay on. Could it be the PCB or do you have any other advice ?

  • I had the same problem. It's the relay board. By Craig - Yorkshire - 14 May 2012

My dryer was working perfectly - then it just stopped -no power light on. We have checked the fuse in the plug - that is fine - the swithch is also working. Could it be the PCB? Would be glad of any advice. Thank you Leesylou

  • Sounds similar to my problem with a hoover dryer which uses the same relay. Works great after replacing this part. By Anonymous - Sydney - 22 July 2011

    It would be best to call Hoover and get a diagnosis on the phone before purchasing, as it could be a different fault instead of the PCB. Once you've found out which part is needed, we'll be sure to have it.

  • ** Unplug dryer from mains before starting work *** 1. Remove three screws from back top of dryer holding lid in place. 2. Slide lid back about an inch and lift to remove. NB: Plastic edging strips may not be attached to wooden lid panel, so be careful when removing. 3. Remove control knob from front panel. This can just be pulled off, but may require the use of a large flat blade screwdriver to prise it loose. 4. Remove two screws from top front edges of dryer holding plastic fascia in place. 5. Remove two indicator lights from front panel by pulling them back into the dryer body. Take note of which colour wire is in which position. 6. Slide plastic fascia panel right (as you face the front of the dryer) and then pull to remove. 7. Remove two screws from top front edge of dryer holding metal front panel in place. 8. Gently pull front panel forwards and carefully bend top edge down to reveal screws holding relay PCB in place. Remove PCB. 9. Taking careful note of current position, transfer one wire at a time from old to new PCB. 10. Secure new PCB using two screws, but fit from INSIDE dryer (to make future removal easier). 11. Carefully bend top edge of metal front panel back to original position and refit two screws to top edge. 12. Replace plastic fascia panel taking note to line up all plastic lugs (including one near the top of the panel). Refit two screws to top edges. 13. Refit two indicator lights (on my machine, the one with the blue wire was nearest the control knob). 14. Refit lid, lining up holes on edges with brass bolts on top of dryer. 15. Secure lid with three screws at back. 16. Plug into mains and test. By TimYork - - 28 August 2010
