Things I remember about washer driers ..they were Carp ..
often had to take half the load out to dry it !
---
General drying -depends a lot on how effective spin was ..
(none of these quick washes -need to add a long spin)
---
Seasonal variation , once start wearing thicker cottons , from synthetics -- Cottons take for ever !
---
(I always love a no detergent - Empty hot wash to de-gunk ..all these Fabric softener slimes )
Modern machines barely seem to have enough water in them these days.. ffs
 
May be an interesting project to post pics of what ends up in
door filter trap / wagos /screws etc.
After a few cheap tissue disasters , I wonder if things are clogging somewhere.
(will only discover if can strip old machine ! )
(That exploring part of me -still very adventurous )
(If it doesn't need to go back together )
(Enemies include -ceased metal / welded plastic )
 
Pure speculation...Sounds like reduced performance from the blower fan or some obstruction. I have read how fabric conditioner can become coated on the temperature sensors which then acts as a layer of thermal insulation - if this was happening then the circulating air would be hotter and maybe detected by the over heat sensor as such.

I have coped now out from fixing our home's white goods and have insured them all for repair of replacement. Too difficult to kneel, bend or contort my body to be able to wrestle with modern machines.
 
Drunken thoughts.
Do these "snake oil "- Cure all - Washing machine "Survival pills" ..actually work on washer driers ... ?
Never owned -( nor wished to) a W/Drier
NOR bought AS advertised Snake Oil !
(Don't believe TV ads - the truth may be out there -but in a distorted form)
--
a) Other thoughts are you in a hard or soft water area ?
b) Do you have a water softener .... (Visited plumb forum --oops)
 
Random ,hunt for factors un-known.
(probably brain washed -by advert of "Crusty machine" ... )
Water flow good , heat transfer suspect ?
Do like too much softener /Bold theory.
(realization low temperatures will probably nullify those "sheet" products .
,just leaves that sticky goo product -For fresh tumble dried fragrence !)
