I think you may have a bad relay on the motor, where power is re-applied after the push start is released

SOURCE: Dryer does not dry clothes

On the top of the heater box there is a thermal fuse that blows if the dryer overheats, on this model it could occur if the air circulation fan is faulty, or the condenser valve is faulty, alternatively the sump hose filter may be blocked, only a closer inspection of these items will determin which the problem is.

SOURCE: dryer does not tumble, but heats up

Dryers have a drive belt that turns the clothes drum. If the belt breaks, the drum stops rotating. Then you need to replace the belt, and often the idler pulley, because the pulley tends to wear out at the same time.

Click here for a belt installation diagram.

Motor If the dryer motor only hums when you press the Start button, the motor may be burned out. Here's how to test the dryer motor:

  • Remove the belt.

  • Check for obstructions in the blower fan housing.

  • Manually rotate the shaft of the motor.

If the motor is very stiff, or impossible to rotate manually, and the blower fan housing is clear, you need to replace the motor.

If the motor rotates freely, run the motor momentarily with the belt removed and the blower in place. If the motor runs fine with the belt removed, there may be a problem with the idler pulley or the clothes drum. Try to rotate the drum by hand. If it is very difficult to move, correct any problem with the rollers or pulley, and then reassemble the dryer and try it again.

If the motor hums but doesn't rotate on its own even with the belt removed--yet you can turn it freely by hand--you usually need to replace the motor or the motor start capacitor.

Door switch Your dryer can't operate at all if the door switch is defective. It's inside the dryer main housing near the door frame. Sometimes you need to raise or open the top or front of the dryer to reach the switch. If it's defective, you need to replace it.

If your dryer doesn't tumble, check these:
Belt,
Motor,
Door switch.

Bush td7cnbcw tumble dryer, always worked perfectly. Only trying to turn it on the morning and the 3 and 9 hrs lights started flashing after 3 turns. Anyone know what this means?

The flashing lights on your Bush TD7CNBCW tumble dryer could indicate an error or fault in the machine. While I don't have access to specific error codes for this particular model, I can provide some general troubleshooting steps that may help you identify and resolve the issue:
1. Check the user manual: Refer to the user manual that came with your tumble dryer. It should contain information about error codes and their meanings. Look for any reference to the flashing lights you are seeing.
2. Power cycle the dryer: Turn off the dryer and unplug it from the power source. Wait for a few minutes, then plug it back in and try turning it on again. Sometimes, power cycling can help reset the machine and clear minor glitches.
3. Check the door switch: Ensure that the door of the tumble dryer is fully closed and latched. The machine may not start if the door switch is not engaged properly.
4. Clear any obstructions: Make sure the drum inside the dryer can spin freely and is not obstructed by any items or lint buildup. Clear out any debris or lint that may be blocking the drum or the lint filter.
5. Check the water tank and filter: If your tumble dryer has a water tank or condenser unit, ensure that it is empty and clean. Additionally, clean the lint filter to ensure it is not clogged, as this can affect the dryer's performance.
6. Consult customer support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a resolution in the user manual, it is recommended to contact the Bush customer support or a qualified technician who can provide specific guidance and assistance for your model.
Remember, safety should always be a priority when dealing with electrical appliances. If you're unsure or uncomfortable with troubleshooting the issue yourself, it's best to seek professional help to avoid any risks or further damage to the appliance.

Candy Condenser tumble dryer model GVS C9DCG-80 31100907

The E22 error code on your Candy Condenser Tumble Dryer model GVS C9DCG-80 31100907 indicates a problem with the drainage system. This could be caused by a few different things:
  1. Blocked drain pump: The drain pump may be clogged with lint or debris, preventing it from properly draining the water from the dryer. Check the drain pump and make sure it is not blocked.
  2. Drain hose: The drain hose that carries the water from the dryer to the drain may be clogged or kinked. Check the drain hose to make sure that it is not blocked or kinked.
  3. Drain filter: Make sure that the drain filter is clean and not clogged.
  4. Control board: The control board manages the dryer's functions and if it's faulty it can cause the E22 error.
To reset the error code E22 on your model, unfortunately, it seems that your model doesn't have a reset button or an option button to reset it. The best course of action would be to contact the manufacturer or an authorized technician for further assistance on how to reset the code and troubleshoot the problem. They will be able to diagnose the problem and provide you with a solution.
