Heats the drying air and uses the thermostats to hold it at a safe temperature.
Tick the symptoms your appliance is showing. We’ll tell you how confident we are this part is the fix.
Error codes are model dependent, so the same brand may have more than one listed.
| Code | Brand | What it means | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| F13 | Ariston | Means a dryer circuit malfunction involving the NTC temperature sensor, a heating element failure, or a lack of airflow. It is usually caused by a faulty sensor or a blockage in the condenser or heater unit. | High |
| F4 | Ariston | Means a heating circuit fault where the dryer cannot heat up or has detected a faulty water sensor, leading to cold air production. It is usually caused by a tripped thermostat, a faulty thermal fuse, or a damaged heating element. | High |
| F6 | Ariston | Means the thermal overload thermostat has tripped due to overheating, or the door switch is failing to register that the door is closed. It is usually caused by a heating circuit fault or a door lock issue. | High |
| F7 | Ariston | Means the dryer cannot heat properly or at all, or on some models a motor circuit fault prevents the drum from turning. It is usually caused by a heater relay fault, a heating element failure, or a control board malfunction. | High |
| F8 | Ariston | Means a heater element or heater relay fault. It is usually caused by a burned-out heating element, a faulty relay on the PCB, or wiring damage. | High |
| E2 | Hotpoint | Means a serious heating fault that causes the dryer to overheat or fail to heat. It is usually caused by a faulty thermistor, a broken heating element, or a control board issue. | High |
| F8 | Hotpoint | Means a heating circuit fault, where the heating element is energised when it should not be. It is usually caused by a faulty thermostat, thermal cut-out, or a malfunctioning control board. | High |
| F14 | Indesit | Means a heating circuit fault, specifically that the heating element is not activating. It is usually caused by a faulty heating element, a tripped thermostat, or faulty wiring or control board. | High |
| F4 | Indesit | Means a serious heating circuit fault that leaves the dryer producing no heat, usually within 3 to 5 minutes of operation. It is usually caused by a failed thermostat, a heating element, or a blocked airflow system causing overheating. | High |
| F8 | Indesit | Means a heater fault that pauses the cycle partway through. It is usually caused by a heater relay fault, a shorted or open heating element, or wiring damage. | High |
