I have an indesit IDC75 condenser tumble dryer and everything appears to be working ok
press start button and it starts spinning
does it reverse tumble at periodic intervals
heats up ok (heat switch toggles between high and low heat and working ok)
timer switch rotates as time passes by
However, there is one issue, it does not switch off when the timer goes back to "0', or 'off' if you like. Just keeps going. It will only stop if the door is opened, then closing the door requires the 'start' button to be pressed again to get it started.
I dont know the history of the machine so unsure if its a genuine fault with the timer switch, which I believe is the issue, or perhaps previous owner maybe changed the wiring to the timer switch.
Any ideas? thanks
No other electronics involved (so no relays) only the basic components:
water pump, flood switch and neon lamp
motor and run start cap
heating element with thermostats
door interlock bitron type switch
drum vent thermostat
heat hi/lo switch
momentary start button
timer switch
Photos of door switch and timer.
