FAQs

What does an NTC sensor do in a tumble dryer?

The NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) sensor measures the internal temperature of the dryer and sends this information to the control module. This allows the dryer to regulate the heat and ensure efficient, safe drying.

How do I know if my NTC sensor needs replacing?

Common symptoms include the dryer not heating, clothes remaining damp after a cycle, the dryer overheating, or the cycle ending too early. Error codes related to temperature may also appear.

Is this part an original manufacturer part?

No, this is a premium quality compatible replacement part designed for specific Bush tumble dryer models. It is not an original part from the manufacturer.

What is the part number for this sensor?

The part number for this Spares2go compatible NTC sensor is equivalent to the original part number 32031617.

How difficult is it to install this NTC sensor?

Installation is generally straightforward and involves accessing the sensor, disconnecting the old one, and connecting the new one. It typically requires basic DIY skills and referring to your dryer's manual for panel removal and sensor location.

Will this sensor fit my specific Bush dryer model?

This sensor is designed for several Bush models including BCGBT8DHP, TD7CNBCW, TD7HPNBW, TDT110HP, TDT17CN, TDT18HP, TDT19HP, TDTE110HP, TDTE18HPB. Please verify your model number matches one of these or is listed as compatible.

What should I do if the problem persists after replacing the sensor?

If the issue is not resolved after replacing the NTC sensor, there may be another fault within the dryer. Check other components such as the heating element, thermal fuse, or control board. Refer to your dryer's service manual or consult a qualified technician.

Troubleshooting

Dryer is not heating up at all.

Verify the NTC sensor is correctly connected. If the connection is secure, the sensor may be faulty and require replacement. Check other potential causes like the heating element or thermal fuse.

Clothes are still damp after a full cycle.

Ensure the NTC sensor is correctly installed and functioning. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to the dryer not reaching the optimal drying temperature. Also, check that the lint filter is clean and the vent hose is clear.

Dryer overheats or 'scorches' clothes.

An NTC sensor that is not accurately reporting temperature can cause overheating. Replace the sensor. Ensure the dryer's airflow is not obstructed by lint buildup.

Cycle stops prematurely.

A faulty temperature reading from the NTC sensor can sometimes trigger the cycle to end before drying is complete. Replace the NTC sensor to rectify this.

Error code displayed on the dryer.

Consult your dryer's manual for specific error code meanings. An NTC sensor fault often triggers a specific error code. Replacing the sensor may resolve the error.
