Sorry for the delay. Very likely the dryer is not broken and just was overheated. Make sure the dryer exhaust line is made in accordance with the Installation instructions (attached to the reply) and is clean all the way through the outlet. Gene.

Hi All, I am having the identical problem with my Bosh Dryer WTA4400. Everything is perfectly clean but I had to reset that "red button" almost every week to make it work. What do I need to do to permanently fix it? Please help. Thank you

Hi Gene, Yes I checked that is the line is clean, it [FONT="]blows pretty well on another end when drying is running so the air circulation is good, no issues with the line[/FONT]

Remove the vent hose from the dryer. Using an oven thermometer, measure the temperature in the dryer outlet during the cycle. Do it a few times and post the results.

If you look at page 1 of this post you will see I had the same problem. I replaced the thermal sensor and black Capicitor and have never had a problem since. good luck
