Repair guidance / Bush / BR6
The cabinet becomes unusually hot
Stop the dryer if overheating or a scorched smell is suspected. Note the model type and whether the change followed a move or surrounding storage being altered. Never bypass a thermal cut-out or treat repeated resets as a repair.
A different pattern: the drum does not turn
Tell us whether the display lights and whether a motor sound is heard before the dryer stops. A stationary drum can have more than one cause. Do not push-start the drum, defeat the door switch or continue running the appliance while it is stalled.
A fitted appliance behind a furniture door
Describe the visible furniture panel, plinth and surrounding cupboards. A built-in appliance needs its access and connection arrangement checked before removal; do not detach cabinetry or pull the appliance forward to make the enquiry.
Identify this Bush model
Provide the complete model and serial number from a safely accessible rating label. Do not remove panels or move heavy equipment to find it.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “the cabinet becomes unusually hot”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “the cabinet becomes unusually hot”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the drum does not turn”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Orpington postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the drum does not turn” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a fitted appliance behind a furniture door — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
