2. To check the component you have to lift the top of the dryer.
3. all heating component located on the back of the drum.
4. The problem could be one of the safety thermostats or heating element.

Fault code f8

Without having full information about exact model number
Problem could be defective main board or heating element or sensors
Best way is visual check and check for any faulty component and parts and check all thermostats and sensors and look for clogged vent or any damaged or rusty or cracked components and use step by step deduction method for trouble shooting
F08 Lower tumble dryer element energised when it should be off
  • Check security of module connector J4
  • Check connector for signs of shorting due to moisture
  • Test heater elements and wiring
  • Replace module (F08 would normally be caused by a faulty module).

I keep getting error code F-14 on Hotpoint condenser dryer model CTD85

Hi.

F14 means that control board does not sense that machine is heating:

F14 - A fault with the water heating has occurred

When you get F14 the fault is usually either the thermistor or the heating element (electric dryer). Both parts are tested removing the part from the dryer and reading impedance at the part contact. If the part returns infinity, then the part is defective. If you need to contact a qualified technician use the phone number listed on your owners manual or check Hotpoint website.

Regards.

My hotpoint wdl520 washer dryer is no longer drying my clothes. I still spins but there is no heat for the clothes to dry. Is there a reset button on this model or is it going to be more serious??

Often a dryer heating element burns out, but doesn't trip the circuit breaker or blow a fuse. The heating element is simply a long coil of special wire. You can check it for continuity with an ohm meter. No continuity means the element is bad and you need to replace it--electric heating elements aren't repairable. On many dryers, there's a thermal fuse mounted to the exhaust duct inside the back cover panel. The fuse--which is about an inch long--is usually embedded in black resin and mounted in a white plastic housing. If the fuse has blown, you need to replace it. (You can't re-set it.)

My hotpoint dryer dried a load of clothes perfectly and then the next load would not dry at all. The dryer is running just fine but there is no hot air. Nothing is blocking the vent. Did the pilot burn...

This sounds like the thermostats
This is not help is not on your model but should guide you in the right direction. All the best APART4U



You-Tube video "sfGInKA3yp8" placeholder (do not delete)




Common faults -
1 The heating elements can fail (meaning open circuit)
2 There are cut-outs (T.O.C's) that might need resetting
3 The thermostats (stats) can trip out or burn out (meaning opencircuit)
4 Moderntumble dryers also have sensors and pcb's (Printed circuitboards) thesehave programs that can fail and circuitry although most should produce an errorcode showing you were the fault is.
5 Faultyconnections and burned wires may also be the fault.

Long time to dry clothes

The dryer has one of its rows of heaters open. Open up the dryer and check the coils behind the drum. read more

Hotpoint aquarius ctd40

most likely, there is a blockage in your exhaust. take it apart and check every inch from your dryer to the outdoors. i clean mine once a year, it keeps the dryer running efficiently. when lint backs up in there, the heat cannot get out and there is a sensor that will shut off the heating element when it gets to a certain temp, so your clothes will take a long time to dry

Not heating up

This looks like it is an older model. The normal place I check for parts doesn't stock the heating element. I found an alternative place but the part is $90.

The element is in the large round area that surrounds the drum assembly. Here's a diagram. The heating element is part number 512. The line doesn't reach all the way there but I think the element is the two dark rings inside the housing. Here the page with the parts listing. You'll note that the model number is the same but the brand is GE. GE makes hotpoint.
