Hello, we have this washing machine for 8 months, been using every day. A few days back after washing clothes, the drying program didnt do its work. Clothes was still wet, we tried few times more, still same problem. Instruction says check air filters, check water drain filter. As we checked and cleaned everything (i think so), the problem repeats again. Of course, we will go for warranty, but still, what could be the problem?

AEG L9WBC61B washer dryer not heating on dry cycle

The problem
An 8-month-old AEG L9WBC61B washed normally but stopped drying. After several attempts, clothes remained wet. The user stated the air filters and water drain filter were checked and cleaned, but the problem continued.
Likely cause
The accepted reply said that if the laundry is cold, the most likely issue is that the dryer heater is not working. Probable causes mentioned were a failed heating element, thermal overload cut-outs (TOCs) having operated, or blockages leading to the TOCs cutting out. This was not confirmed by test results.
What fixed it
Use the warranty and have the appliance inspected by an engineer. The thread points to a non-heating dryer circuit as the main diagnosis, but no exact repair was confirmed in the discussion.
Checks to try
  • Air filters checked and cleaned
  • Water drain filter checked and cleaned

Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Hello. If the laundry is cold it's probably caused by the dryer heater not working. It could be that the heating element has failed, or that the TOCs protecting it have cut out. There could be blockages that caused the TOC's to cut out. Probably best to get an engineer, but I have this article for general advice Washer dryer not heating on dry cycle
