BOSCH WTE84105GB/31 Clasixx 7 Tumble dryer Stops prior to end of drying cycle

On starting the machine it runs through the drying cycle, DRYING, IRON DRY, AND CUPBOARD DRY, but then cuts out prior to starting/ completing the ANTI-CREASE/END cycle.

I will try and help with this problem BOSCH WTE84105GB/31 Clasixx 7 Tumble dryer

Good morning Ken, there are several things that can cause problems with your Bosch tumble dryer. First, let's look at the two silver bars inside the drum. These bars are sensors that detect the amount of water in your clothes. The wetter the clothes, the higher the electrical conductivity between the bars, and this information is sent to the circuit board to determine how long the drying cycle should run.

If these bars get covered in a film, they might send incorrect readings to the circuit board, causing the dryer to finish early. I've included a video below to help you clean these bars.

Additionally, there are drain holes and an NTC sensor that can be affected by fluff build-up, leading to false readings. I suggest watching the full maintenance video below to learn how to maintain your Bosch tumble dryer properly. These dryers are similar to Siemens or Neff models.

Condenser tumble dryers need clean airways to work efficiently. It's a good idea to do a full maintenance on your machine at least every 18 months, depending on usage.

I suspect cleaning the sensor bars inside the drum will help, but I recommend doing a full maintenance on your tumble dryer for best results.

Ken, you're lucky because I have some second-hand spares for these tumble dryers. Below, I've added a few videos about common problems with condenser tumble dryers. I hope this helps you fix your tumble dryer. I have also added some exploded diagrams of your dryet to assist you in locating any components. If you need more help, don't hesitate to contact me.
