I will try and help with this problem about Bosch WTB86200PL/08 Tumble Dryer,

I'm sorry to hear about the problem with your Bosch condenser tumble dryer. There are a few reasons why the machine might be cutting out.

First, you didn't mention if the electrics were cutting out when the machine stopped. If they are, it’s usually an electrical fault. You should check for a bad suppressor or filter in the back right corner of the machine. There might also be an intermittent power problem going to the machine, a bad connection on the circuit board, or a dry joint on one of its circuits.

Without seeing the machine and having all the details, it’s hard to give precise advice. However, if the power stays on but the machine stops, it usually means a sensor thinks the clothes are dry. To check this, set the dryer to a timed process instead of auto dry. If it runs for 30 minutes and dries the clothes correctly, there could be an issue with one of the moisture sensors. It might be cutting out because it's getting too hot or it thinks the clothes are dry. This is often due to a faulty humidity sensor.

Another reason could be related to the pump unit. If there's water in the well where the pump is located when it cuts out, it means the auto pump system isn’t working properly and isn’t moving water to the collection bowl. This would stop the machine as a safety measure.

I've included exploded diagrams of the machine and a link to any spare parts you might need. When ordering parts, use your full model number from the identification plate. I hope this helps you. I've also added some videos below to assist you with any repairs.
