Bosch Classixx WTE102GB keeps cutting out?

Hi my condenser dryer keeps cutting out, the hotter it gets, the shorter time it stays on for. We asked a specialist that said it was the temperature limiter at the back, which we have replaced. We have also replaced temperature limiter (with the red button) as a precaution and also the one at the front in the filter cavity. The pump has been dismantled and cleaned. The whole thing has been defuzzed within an inch of its life. All seems to function correctly but something seems to be cutting it out, then it won't start up again until cool. The only other suggestion is the control module is faulty, do you have any other suggestions, before I give up the ghost?

Hi yes, everything goes off then within a second the start light starts flashing. But if you just leave it, it periodically goes off and on, staying off for a few seconds then back on again. But wen it's at this stage it won't start up again, not until it's totally cold. I've moved it to 3 different locations, using different sockets and even different ring mains in the house.

when it cuts out does the whole thing go off?.check the plug and try it in a different socket as I have had heating of plugs in wall sockets cause issues like this

Thanks CK, the fan is definitely rotating without issue. The condenser does seem to have a few small bits of lint in the middle out of physical reach. Have hosed it but not moving, but doesn't seem blocked in any part. Would that cause power to drop off without an indicator light?

common issues are blocked condensers and fans not spinning to circulate air fast enough
