Any tumble dryer experts on here?

[gti-ted]

I have a 14 Month old hotpoint dryer and basically it will work fine for approx 15-20 mins then trip the breakers in the fuse box.

Flip the switch and it works again for 10 mins and then trips again.

I have removed the rear cover and cleaned the fluff of everything, so before i call the engineer does anyone have any ideas

Cheers

Faulty heater element/thermostat ?

[NDA]

No expert at all but I'd check the following:

1. Plug wired up OK - correct fuse in it etc?
2. Does the tumbler spin around freely? Nothing caught up in it?
3. Can you trace the wiring all the way to where it's connected at the back - right through to the terminal block?

Could it be getting too hot perhaps?
