[HOW TO FIX] Candy - CS C8LF-80 - Flashing Lights and Beeping v2.0 also HOOVER model HL C8LF-80

[@annathiam4479]

Hello. For the past 2 years, my tumble dryer went off 4 times for the same reason. Thanks to you, I got it working again. Thank you so much for sharing this

[@charlenenicholls849]

Thank you so much! Single parent here and you just saved me £100’s! Thank you so much. Worked instantly!

[@michaelajohnson1971]

Thank you so much for this video. My 83 year old mums dryer tripped and we would have never sorted it without this. Thanks again 🙌

[@andyf]

Glad to have helped!

[@mariephillips3941]

This method works. If it still don't work take the condenser filter looking thing, out at the bottom by releasing the two blue clips and washing the whole filter. Then put the filter back in. Then take the other filter out , that you are advised to clean after each wash, and look deep down from where it came from and use a hoover hose or find something that fits down in that space and clean out all that clothes fibre blocking and clogged up in the vent. Also when drying, clothes do not overload the drum.

[@toomacchi]

I watched this once and still remember it till this day! So helpful I’ve used this trick with my dryer whenever it started acting crazy lol thanks bro!

[@marbah1889]

Thank you for sharing. Exact same model and for now works. Hadn’t any issues with this machine for over 2 years heavy use.

[@andyf]

Glad it works!

[@BigGoucho]

I've got this dryer and it might help people to take the plate off the intake under the removeable cover at the front below the drum on the right hand side.. Bit of a weird design but mine kept cutting out after a few minutes. I looked at where the air was supposed to be going in and there was a great big white plate over it. It looked like the machine had been breathing in its own hot humid air. I took this off and it seems to be running fine now. Hope this helps.

[@louisecudworth1171]

I was all checking the bottom no way I was for certain it was the top part what pulled out, OMG YOUR A LIFE SAVER THANKs

[@Newdawn1133]

I thought my dryer was knackered. The dryer is working perfectly now. Thanks for this video 😁

[@andyf]

YES!!! Glad to hear it

[@jasonbradford9118]

Mate iv just been to curry’s to buy a new machine came away with nothing thought I’ll wait till next week watched your video and am now buzzing you have just saved me a headache of it all so MASSIZE THANKYOU SO MUCH 😃😃😃😃

[@andyf]

Yas! I love that this video stops folk spending so much money! I’m not even a bloody tumble dryer repair man!

[@nicolarichardbrown6344]

I have to say massive thankyou it took two goes and beating it with the handle of the screw driver BUT it's working atm was not an expense I needed the week before Christmas! Lifesaver

[@andyf]

Glad to hear it! More presents :) or at least not skint hopefully!

[@rebeccaj1310]

[@AndyJMacLeod]

Thanks! It worked! Which I’m glad about, because there 13 screws to undo and redo…

[@andyf]

Only 4 in mine now cause I lost the rest 😄

[@louisecarter1083]

Thanks so much for this video, I'd searched for a reset switch but didn't expect it to be inside. Enjoy a drink on me, merry Christmas xx

[@andyf]

Thank you so much! Merry Christmas and Happy Dry Clothes

[@kalamwaites7342]

It works for the short term but in the end there is a problem for it to keep tripping. Thank you for your help and hopefully it keeps plodding a little longer

[@jozzelynnehughes3607]

Mine was doing exactly the same, my partner went back onto the video read through some comments and found the problem is actually the plate covering the intake at the front underneath the removable cover.

[@kalamwaites7342]

@@jozzelynnehughes3607 this is so strange I literally found that out last week. After I'd taken it to the skip haha bloody sods law

[@ashman3152]

​@jozzelynnehughes3607 is that the intake to the right of the filter/water tank? What was the actual issue? (Mine was working fine until we moved this Friday and after a while it keeps tripping this fuse)

[@paul1840]

Thank you so much, was very stressed and instantly somehow found your video, I had tried everything and was at the point of thinking was serious issue and gonna be costly, all sorted now working perfect, when I get a chance will send you a gift , thanks mate

[@andyf]

So glad this video is still helping folk. Especially during the winter! 😀

[@markkunder8400]

Your a legend pal thought I was tumbler dryer shopping on my day off tomorrow

[@seanbrennan3472]

Worth making sure the filter is clear but also the condenser needs to be clear as well this might be caused by overheating

[@GIMMEDANGERX1]

Cheers for the video mate! Thought the tumble was knackered, haha. Much appreciated!

[@harf4ng]

Thanks for the vid. It saved my day. Thanks to you I was able to fix my dryer machine alone. On my candy dryer machine the reset button is in fact between the red and blue wires.

[@amandabrown6793]

Thank you so much for sharing, I'm so happy ,got my screwdriver out and now my dryer is back in use ,not used it for 2 days so mounting up 😁

Did you find a solution? I have the same as you and losing them will to live lol

[@gemmaj1091]

My models got a Slightly different back but I took it off and found the button but it won’t press in to reset 😔

[@J_keane]

I have the same dryer and used to have this issue and did the same fix, but now all the lights have gone out, and the sound it makes when you move the dial, or press a button is very quiet. Nothing i do will get it to work.

[@andyf]

If mines is anything to go by it’s probably full of lint inside. You should take the top off (after making sure it’s unplugged!) and clean it out

[@rickyjohnstone5167]

I done this but the switch not there, exact same model but reset switch not there, any ideaa

[@gts359]

Cheers mate! Saved me a call out!

[@NeilBaileyF1]

Be very careful with this advice. This guy is correct, resetting the overload trip switch does work, but it means the main thermostat next to it has failed. Because of this it will not trip again, meaning the heater at the back becomes red hot because there is no active thermostat. At best your clothes will smell like a barbecue, at worst it causes your clothes to catch fire….worse still your house. It’s tripped for a reason and you should never ignore this. Replacing the thermostat is easy and cheap and this is all you need to do to fix it. You can order them from ransom or some other parts provider. All you need is the model no which is on the inside of the door.

[@andyf]

I should just point out that you’re wrong here, the switch will continue to trip as and when the circuit becomes overloaded (when the machine over heats) and has done for me and many others. When the switch and or the multiple other safety controls fail the machine will not power the heater. See my latest video on this. Appreciate your concern though and well played for alerting people to potential fire risks 🙌

[@BAT1972ALEN]

Thank you mate you save me ... it is a solution ....but the reason for that is dirty filter....so keep filter clean

Hey guys, I just bought this dryer and it's my first time owning a dryer. I just wanted to know if you have to separate the cottons and synthetics(Polyester) when using the eco cotton cycle? I basically what to know which cycle I can just put everything inside (except for white clothes)

[@andyhollis502]

This has happened to my dryer but I've tried the button but it's stuck solid and won't press in to reset.. any ideas please .

Likely the heater unit needs replaced. About £50 off eBay 👍 only 2 more screws and a plug involved in the job
