Possible Causes
Clogged condenser unit (for condenser/heat pump models), Blocked lint filter or air ducts, Faulty dry heater element or fan, Defective dry cycle temperature sensor
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool before accessing dryer components.
- Clean condenser: If your AEG washer-dryer has a user-accessible condenser, remove it and rinse thoroughly under running water to clear lint and fluff. Let it dry and refit.
- Check lint filters and ducts: Clean any accessible lint filters and inspect air channels for blockages.
- Avoid overloading: Dry smaller loads and ensure the spin speed is set high in the wash phase to remove as much water as possible.
- Test dry heater and fan: If there is no warmth or airflow during drying, the dry heater or fan motor may be faulty and should be tested and replaced if necessary.
