[unplug the appliance before proceeding] At the back of the dryer close to the floor there is a white cap secured with a spring coil lock. Use a pliers to loosen the spring and remove that cap [make sure you have a towel in place as there will be water]. After it has drained fully [you should tilt the dryer on it's left side when viewed from the rear and then tilt back towards you to get all of the water] replace the cap and secure it with the spring lock. Now tilt the dryer on it's left side and let it drop from about 5cm. See if that resolves the problem, if not remove the left side panel - when viewed from front [ you need to remove the lid by unscrewing the two retaining scrfews at the rear and sliding it back, then remove 4 screws from the back panel that connect to that panel, there is one more screw at the top front of the panel]. Unplug the two hose pipes [red and clear] and remove the small retaining screw then pull out the complete housing [it will slide]. You can then see the black float which triggers the tank full switch. Clean it and any other gunk that is in the reservoir. If there is a lot of dirt then you may have to clean your condensor [see operating manual for instructions on how to do that]. Put it all back together and the 'full tank' issue should be cleared.

Why is there no water in the tank after use, even when clothes are wet going into the dryer?

The pump sits in a sump behind the condensor if it is not blocked , then the pump is faulty

My tricity bendix tm320 heater wont heat on half heat but will heat on full heat

It may be as simple as checking your lint filter.
If you use fabric softeners sheets, they tend to clog the lint filter holes. Washing it with soap and water will restore it back to normal and will allow the circulation that the dryer needs to properly dry your clothes.

My tricity bendix dryer TM 320W is heating up but it's takeing at least 3 full cycles to dry the clothes and the water tank is hardly ever full, whereas i had to empty it after ever few loads before. any...

check the condensor is clean.the most overlooked reason for this is failure of either the seals at the front and rear of the drum allowing the closed cicuit heated air and there condensing air mixing. check the seals its usually the rear one.

I think the pump is full of lint, and is not able to pumpe the water from the bottom container to the container in the panel. Check that;)

The tank full light stays on so the machine thinks it needs to be emptied

find the power source (usually at the circuit breaker panel)-then turn the breaker for the dryer off and return to on after 10 minutes and try restarting.
