Hoover Candy tumble dryer empty water Indicator flashing, runs for a few seconds then stops

Hoover Condenser Tumble Dryer VHC380-80 Stops after approx 60 minutes with empty water light on
Hello. My mum tells me her dryer is doing the following.
– Runs for approx 60 minutes then stops and the empty water light turns ON.
– Check of the water tank finds there’s not a lot of water in it.
– Emptied water tank.
– Dryer won’t restart after 5, 10 and 15 minues have passed but will start after 20-30 minutes has elapsed since stopping.
– Dryer then stops again after approx 60 minutes with empty water light ON.
– The above repeats.
– The dryer is heating up, turning and changing direction.
– There are no other lights on except the empty water when the dryer stops.
It appears the dryer is cutting out and with it being able to restart after 20-30 minutes perhaps though this was the thermal control cut out but the empty water light is a question mark given the water tank is no where near full – to quote my mum ‘there’s hardly any water in the tank when it stops’.
I’ve watched your excellent video about servicing a Hoover dryer and hope you’ll point me in the right direction before I buy the parts to fix it. I see Hoover supply pressure switches, NTC’s and heater but not the thermostats (that I could find in the spares list).
Any advice about possible cause and parts would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.
