how can i fix my hoover HSC 170 condenser tumble dryer?

hi just had the same problem & had the guy come out to fix it & it was the heating element that was gone he changed it in about 10 mins & it works fine again now, it also made the filter care waring light come on as well he said the heater element was the fault but if it comes on again it may be because there is fluff covering the sensor down inside the filter thingy when you open the door, I always clean this but I never think to clean inside the pocket itselt that it sit into hope this helps
