The front felt came out when machine was on I tried to refit it but kept falling out so I ordered a new one and thought I could just stick the new one into the groove I managed to get it in but quite sticky n when I switched it on it wouldn’t turn so I took it out again and it’s working but I’m worried that I’m doing damage to the dryer. It’s a candy gbc590 condensor five years old.
Hi i have a Hoover HD vision 8kg condenser Tumble dryer it makes a real loud bang and with it a sort of electrical burning smell,i can turn it off and restart it and it will produce some heat for a short time and then it will repeat the loud bang and smell,i cannot find anything on the internet that explains or matches my problem,i have of course now left the dryer off till i can find a solution as i fear a risk of fire,the bang is very loud scary even.
Best Regards Terry!
