    Thank you! I read/watched enough to learn that reset switch was in there somewhere, but yours was the only one to explain how to get the top off and show me (exactly) where the switch was. An easy fix! And, curse Bosch (24 screws later) for not putting a simple access plate to get to it. Thanks again for the advice and saving me a lot of money and headaches.

    THANK YOU! Yup. Worked. Depressing the breaker button ... it went in with a very satisfying click/catch. Note to those drying clothes: always clear the lint filter first.

    This worked for me. Thank you. I was thinking that I had lost the heating coils, but pushing the reset button fixed the dryer. Now why in the world they didn't add a small panel that you could open to press that reset button is beyond me. I'd guess if you had to have a repairman fix your dryer it would be between 100 and 300 dollars, and all the repairman would have to do is press that button.

    I am so pleased!! This worked so fast and so easy. thank you for saving me the time. I understood the reset button as soon as I saw what you had explained. Tedious to move all em screws!!! Lord - do you think there are enough of them? ;) I took the exposed back and cleared out all the excess dust that had built up at same time. Fire scares me and that is a great spot for them to happen. I could not easily clear out the draft collector at the initial lint trap in the dryer that the catcher is in, but did throw a blower in there to push out any thing that I could not easily reach. so pleased that i did this. Thank you for your easy correction to what seemed daunting!!!

    Dear Rad 2087, thanks for posting this video as my Bosch Nexxt 500 series dryer (Model WTMC332SUS) recently stopped heating. Cleaned out vents and lint box, hit the red reset button; but the heating coils still did not turn on. Ran a continuity test on coil and temperature limiter - and both had continuity. The only thing I didn't test was the impedance of the sensor (didn't know how). I stupidly bought and installed a new heating unit (which includes the temperature limiter and sensor. anyway) - and installed - but still no heat. The motor still runs, drum turns - just no heat. Are there any thermal fuses that may have blown and need to be replaced? Not sure where to look next. Thoughts and/or suggestions? thank you in advance for your help.

    • @rad2087
      @rad2087  3 роки тому

      just a guess, but it sounds like the control board isn't talking to the heating element... but again just a guess, sorry, good luck!

    • @davidc3930
      @davidc3930 3 роки тому +1

      Dear Rad 2087, Thank you for replying to my question. I really appreciate it. Because the Control Board (OEM#00666016) is one of the more expensive parts to replace; I tried replacing the relay first (part #00422203). Although relays are typically pretty reliable - I thought I would replace the relay first. I tested the old relaying by trying to close the circuit using a 9 volt battery - only to find out that I can't close the circuit without and alternating current. Live and learn....lol. To make a long story short, replacing the relay did not work. I bought a control panel (OEM part #00666016) for relatively cheap ($55 including s&h). After taking pictures, replaced the control board - and the dryer worked!!!! Wouldn't have been able to fix my dryer without your help - SO THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH.
      We were in a pickle, becuase the space for the existing dryer is 28" W x 38" H - and when we went shopping....there were no dryer washer sets that was less than 38" in Height. We would have had to tear down some wall cabinets to open up space for today's modeles of washer and dryers.
      We appreciate you!!! Peace. out.

  • @wattosdeal
    @wattosdeal 8 місяців тому

    If the dryer gets too hot to touch is this reset button bad and needs replacement or does something else control when to turn off the heat coils? My Nexxt 500 dryer stopped producing heat so I used the reset button, and it heated up again but very hot. The coils never stop glowing red.

    • @rad2087
      @rad2087  8 місяців тому

      I don’t know enough to say for sure. But I would definitely suspect the reset is bad due to over temp. You definitely don’t want an over temp dryer.
