Repair guidance / Candy / BR2
The drum turns without useful heat
Identify whether the dryer is vented, condenser or heat pump and whether clothes remain cold throughout. Those types manage heat differently, so the same symptom does not imply the same part. Stop if there is a burning smell rather than repeating long test runs.
A different pattern: the door will not stay closed
Describe whether the door catches, sags or closes but produces a door warning. Do not tape the door shut or defeat its switch. A model-label photograph and an external view of the hinge area help prepare the enquiry without dismantling anything.
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 Candy 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 drum turns without useful heat”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “the drum turns without useful heat”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the door will not stay closed”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Hayes postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the door will not stay closed” 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.
