Bosch Axxis WTL 6508 Electric Dryer Questions & Answers
Bosch Maxx7 sensitive - WTV74100ME/15 - stop after 1 minute , 3 beeps all the time , flushing lights together for heat and open door icon.
The issue you are experiencing with your Bosch Maxx7 sensitive dryer could indeed be related to a faulty heat sensor or a clogged vent. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
- Check the vent: Ensure that the dryer vent hose is not clogged or blocked. A blocked vent can prevent hot air from circulating in the dryer and trigger the overheat sensor to shut down the machine.
- Clean the lint filter: Remove the lint filter and clean it thoroughly. A clogged lint filter can also cause the dryer to overheat and shut down.
- Check the heating element: If the heating element is faulty, the dryer may not heat properly or may overheat and trigger the sensor to shut down the machine.
- Reset the machine: Turn off the power to the dryer for a few minutes and then turn it back on. This may reset the machine and resolve the issue.
If none of these troubleshooting steps resolve the issue, it may be best to contact a qualified technician to inspect and repair the machine.

Water tank full (!) in bosch tumble dryer WTE86301gr
As a matter of fact I have solved the problem. The dryer is now fully functioning again. :-)
I'll try to explain how to fix the problem:
The water that condenses in the condensor (doh!) drips down into a container situated below the condensor. The moist air that passes through the condensor is the same air that circulates via the clothes, thus it also contains some lint that the filter doesn't catch. Over time there will be some build-up of lint and mucus (?), clogging the tank AND a sensor that sends a signal to the electronics to start the pump that evacuates the condensed water to the removable tank in the upper part of the machine. This messes up the function of the water evacuation system.
Alright, pull out the condensor and find a hatch in the 'floor' in the farther part of the compartment. Below the hatch you'll find the container that collects the condensed water. Start by cleaning it as thoroughly as you can. There are a few 'nooks and crannies', take your time, also flush with some fresh water and maybe some gentle cleanser to get rid of the mucus. The pump and the sensor for the pump are located in the left part (viewing from front of the machine) of the container. Try to flush there as well.
If this procedure doesn't solve the problem you'll have to disassemble the machine to also be able to remove the pump and sensor housing. I had to do this on mine. Quite a few screws to remove and keep track of, but pretty straight forward if aren't too uncomfortable with 'fixing things'.
I have some pictures of the 'project' somewhere, let me know if you would like to see them or if I may help you some other way.

Bosch gas dryer WTMC6500UC doesn't heat.
It is a gas dryer, it can only be fixed by a registered gas technician. The grinding noise is likely to be bearings or drum rollers. Solenoids click, gas valves work silently, or not at all. Call them out - Imm Besser.

Bosch tumble dryer, model wta 4100 , no heat,
If the
dryer isn't heating, check for a blown thermal fuse or a faulty heating element. Both components can be tested using a multimeter or ohmmeter. Check for continuity. A lack of continuity indicates a faulty component. Both components are located in the rear of the
dryer. The thermal fuse is about an inch long and is usually attached to or near the exhaust duct. Hope this helped and best wishes.

Bosch 300 series condensing dryer. Hitting start gives two beeps, and it won't start. I tried cleaning the lint filter and the condensing unit. It is 3 days old.
After cleaning the sensor, filter screen, heat exchanger and still having the filter beeping problem, I saw that the reservoir where the condensed water gets pumped out was blocked with wet lint. The lint accumulated in the back wall (big circle) falls off and blocks the exit (small red circle) after cleaning that with a small wire brush (used for cleaning water bottle straws) the problem was solved. When this is clogged, it gets too hot and the lint filter goes off. Same goes for if the heat exchanger is heavily clogged. I take it out and hose it. Running under the faucet might not do it. You need pressure to blow all the lint out. Hope this helps.

My Bosch dryer WTl6500AU/07 is stuck on wrinkle mode
OP Text edited for clarity and spelling. Moved Category from Computers to Bosch Dryers.
This is how you reset. If that doesn't fix it, you will need a service call. It may need a main board, but they are expensive and should not be just changed on a guess.
