Clean the Lint Filter or Condenser

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:

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.

If your Grundig tumble dryer is taking a long time to dry clothes and not getting as hot as it used to, there are a few things you can check:

1. Clean the lint filter: A clogged lint filter can prevent proper airflow and cause the dryer to take longer to dry clothes. Make sure to clean the filter before every load.
2. Check the vent hose: Make sure the vent hose is not kinked or clogged. A blocked vent hose can also cause the dryer to take longer to dry clothes.
3. Check the heating element: A faulty heating element can cause the dryer to not get as hot as it should. You can test the element with a multimeter to see if it is working properly.
4. Check the thermostat: A faulty thermostat can also prevent the dryer from getting hot enough. You can test the thermostat with a multimeter to see if it is working properly.

If you have checked all of the above and the issue persists, it may be best to contact a professional appliance repair technician for further diagnosis and repair.

Unsure if your model has a front housing to be checked.

Dear Arland,
Here are a few common answers.
1) Be certain the clothes from the washer are already "half dry".
If the washer is not extracting enough water like it used to, it may be the problem. (For example: A loose or slipping drive belt).
2) Your dryer vent may be clogged with lint.
Check the total run of the exhausted air ( From the machine to the outside air)
Any blockage can slow, or nearly stop, the drying process.
3) Check the inside of the machine.
Newer machines often clog up inside where you cannot see the problem.
You must completely dismantle the machine to clean it.
God bless your efforts.

Here is the list for the DRYER not sure what model... guys please post MODELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dryer

Failure Code Condition Check/Repair

F1 Condensate drain overfilling.
1. Check condensate reservoir pump and drain tube.

F2 Maximum drying time exceeded (3hrs) 1. Check for tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse
2. Check ductwork for lint build-up
3. Check hi-limit and cycling thermostat
4. Check heating element

F3 Thermistor fault 1. Open thermistor, replace
2. Bad wiring to thermistor

F4 Too much lint in the lint filter, front housing, or in the condenser.1. Clean lint from lint filter and/or condenser

F5 Fault in the moisture sensor · Lint covering sensor in front of housing1. Bad sensor
2. Bad wiring to sensor

Check The Ducting To Make Sure There Is No Obstructions Inside. Find The Outlet Outside Where The Duct Goes And See If Your Getting A lot Of Air. In Some Cases You May Have To Remove The Back Of The Dryer To Remove The Biggest Lint Ball In The World.
This Huge Lint Ball Builds Up Over Time And Quickly For Users Who Do Not Clean The Lint Trap On Every Cycle.

All Of The Above Will Cause The Dryer To Not Be Able To Get Good Air Flow Thus Causing The Machine To Have To Much Back Pressure.

you need a dryer vent brush first,bought at home depot cheap,and clean the entire vent to the house,then clean where the vent hooks up to the machine,if your filter is where your door is pull out the filter and stick the brush in there and pull out lint,also use your vacume,remember you let some lint out when you let the hose blow out but theres a lot more there to clean,and also unplug your machine as you do this,if this helps please give me a fix ya vote

You will need to remove drying condenser filter and clean

That button with the 1/2 on it and then the time dial works and it sounds as if it is washing your clothes, but it is actually drying the clothes but heats up water in order to do it. It is kind of insane actually but it does work and that is the way to do it.

 

 

 

Do you know if there is a place to clean a lint filter? Is there a lint filter somewhere?

The Bosch Dryer has a temperature probe in the heater exit and in the exhaust area visible when you open the door. If the temperature difference between the two gets to high, the lint filter is assumed to be plugged and the alarm goes off.

It seems that the temperature probe at the heater, can end up with a faulty connection to the control panel over time due to corroded contacts or lint build up. When this happens the control panel thinks the filter is clogged and it may also not turn on the heating elements properly. Remove the back cover over the heating element (12 screws) and then remove the one screw holding the red wiring connection to the dryer body. You can then wiggle out the wiring connection and clean / unplug and replug in the connector for the sensor. (plug with two small wires only). A little hard feeding the connector back through the hole so take your time and don't damage the wires). Should all work again. May want to inspect inside the heater at same time and make sure the overheating switch is not tripped. ( press in the red button).
