When the dryer has finished the drying stage everything seems to be working ok even going through the cooling down stage. when i open the door alot of hot steam comes out and the clothes are red hot and are still slightly damp. An engineer has been out but he reckons there is nothing wrong with it. Any ideas thanks sharonj1969

Your water supply to the machine has been turned off, or the triplewater valve has gone open circuit on the condensor solaniod if you have a multimeter you can test the valves unplug the machine from the mains and turn the cold water supply off , take the back panel off take 2 wires off at a time and test each solanoid they should read around 3800 ohms if you nget no reading on 1 of the solaniods thats you problem change the complete valve. good luck

Hotpoint aquarius washer dryer wd63 1100 spin - my fuse went just as i was switching the machine on - so the door locked and wont open - changed the fuse, door was still locked so thought id let the wash...

Try buttons "dry" & "spin" together for a few seconds. This is the child lock display.

Or press "end of cycle" for over 3 seconds.

Or press "options & select" till the light goes off.

Works for other machines..............And please rate me if helped

Dryer problrm

The sympoms are typical of a couple of reasons.
  1. Blocked condenser.
  2. faulty cold inlet valve, not letting water in to condense steam back to water.
When it is on the drying cycle, see if you can see water pumping out of the drain at. a slow rate.
If you can see no water at all coming from outlet hose, then chances are it is a faulty valve, and you will have replace same.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.

Door wont open on my hotpoint aquarius washer/dryer

Turn the dryer dial to off, making sure you can hear it click off, wait 1 min, and then try door. If it will still not open then you may have faulty door lock, or a prob with the door handle.

Wd63 door

The main cause with this model is water still in machine. Try a spin and look for water in drum. To empty manually lower drain hose into bowl untill empty. Door should then open.

Clothes wont dry but gets really hot

Hello, sounds like your cold water feed hose has got a kink in it. The machine needs cold water to condense the steam. Just pull out the machine and slowly slide back into place.
