Possible Causes
Open heating element, Tripped thermal fuse on heater housing, Faulty cycling thermostat, Broken heater wiring connector
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer and allow it to cool completely before accessing the heater area.
- Clean filters and vents: Before deeper work, clean the lint filter and exhaust duct thoroughly to ensure good airflow.
- Access heater: Remove the rear panel to reach the heater housing. Inspect for burnt smell or visible damage.
- Check thermal fuse: Many Ariston dryers have a one‑shot thermal fuse on the heater housing. If open (tested by a technician), it must be replaced and the airflow issue corrected.
- Replace heater: If the element is visibly broken or tests open, replace the heater assembly with the correct Ariston part.
