I think your exhaust system is clogged. You need heat and air movement to dry the clothes. If it can't breath because of lint, clothing will not dry. Check every bit of the exhaust.

Next, if your dryer uses "sensor' technology to dry, clean the sensors according to the manufacturers instructions. You dont say what make yours is so it is difficult to be more specific. If you dont have the instruction manual, visit the manufacturer web site and look for support.

Testimonial: "yes the water and lint go to their own compartments. i'll try the hose and hopefully theres no snakes in there!"

    I guess I'm not familiar with the term 'condenser dryer'. I dont recall your stating this in your original question. I dont know what it means so I cant give a good answer.



    I do know from a traditional dryer stand point that if the wetness cannot get out, the cloths will not dry. In my case, there is a hose that runs from the dryer to the out of doors. I have removed all kinds of stuff from that hose including a 6 foot snake. The clothes didnt dry very good on that day .. and it was only a few minutes before I replaced the outside vent with one that had a flaper door and it was a very long time before I stuck my hand back in to the hose with out looking first.



    If I were to guess at the term 'condenser dryer' I would conclude that somehow the machine extracts the water and the lint and places both in their own container for later disposal. Great for putting the device in the middle of the house but probably a maintenance nightmare. I hope Im wrong in this interpertation. spell'n dont count



    Thanks for posting atFixYa.com

Hi We have a miele condensor dryer. It is working fine except that you have to put clothes through twice to dry. It seems to cut short the drying process and then you need to put the machine back on...

The first thing you need to check is your vent system. If your dryer vent is clogged with lint, the dryer has a hard time expelling the moisture.
Then, if the vent is clean, try using a timed drying cycle instead of a sensor cycle. If your clothes get dry using the timed cycle, then you might have a sensor problem.
Also, make sure your wash machine is properly spinning out the clothes. I saw that once before where the customer thought the problem was with the dryer, but it ended up being their wash machine's ATC switch adding water at the end of the spin cycle.

Good luck!

Thor laundry system won't dry clothes I have a thor no venting washer/dryer combo machine, that has been working fine for years. Suddenly it is not drying clothes and instead, clothes are soaking wet...

I am having the same problem on a WD9900A. The wash cycle works great. Spins fast and clothes are completely rung out. Dryer cycle heats up well. Fluffs and heats cloths. At some point during dry cycle water is injected on clothes and they end up sopping wet; much wetter than after wash. Filter is clear. Outlet pipe clear and functions well. Possible problem with dryer timer? Or washer timing kicking back on?

Dryer not drying cloths even though it does the full cycle? hotpoint wd63

There are several reasons for this to happen.
  1. Heater element faulty.
  2. Thermostat faulty.
  3. Heater relay faulty.
  4. Blocked condenser.
  5. No cold water going in on drying cycle.
You really need a meter to test the components with, to get the bottom of the problem.
Please rate my solution.
Thanks.

Water remains under rubber seal. Water too high in bleach dispen.

Did you try taking the dispenser tray apart and cleaning it? The exit ports tend to clog over time. Best thing I have found is to remove the tray at the end of wash day, rinse it out, dry it and put it only partially in the machine, thereby allowing air circulation. Some water will always remain at the end of the wash cycle...inherent in the design.

As for the gasket, you'll have to wipe it down at the end of wash day and leave the door open to dry everything out. I leave mine open all the time.

Clothes still wet aftre drying cycle over

It sounds as if the wash cycle isn't terminated by pumping the rinse water out and spinning to rid the clothing of most of the water.
Most dryers sense moisture but I think they all will have a maximum run-time to prevent possible fires if the programmer fails to shut them down at the end of the drying cycle.
I would watch the machine and when it started the drying cycle, I would shut it off and check for surplus water that hadn't been pumped out as it should have been.

Hotpoint Aquarius 1200 Washer Dryer not drying.

Hi, I think the problem you have is with the cold water inlet valve? When your machine dries it uses a small amount of water at high pressure through a restricter fitted in the water inlet valve. These break down letting in to much water which cannot evaporate quick enough for it to pump out causing the washing to become wetter than after the wash/spin cycle. The only way of solving this is to replace th tree way water inlet valve. But make sure that the pump is working ok first and that there is nothing in the sump hose trap which is located underneath the washing machine out the bottom of the tub.
Good luck.................

Drying cycle ma;function

The problem lies with the water valve at the water entrance area; trace the pipe from where the water comes to dispenser. This should be done after opening up the top ( careful not to touch any part which could give you electric shock or anything) The pipe where the water gushes should be traced back to the inlet area, you will have to change this valve. To see the gush gently open the dispenser drawer.
