How to Fix Bosch Dryer Error TIME PROGRAMME SYMBOL

Error Code: TIME PROGRAMME SYMBOL Difficulty: Easy

Problem: The drying cycle has been set for a specific length of time.

How to Fix TIME PROGRAMME SYMBOL Error (Step-by-Step)

1. This symbol indicates that a timed drying cycle has been selected, where the dryer runs for a specific duration you set (e.g., 30 minutes).
2. This is a normal function, not an error. It is useful for freshening up clothes or finishing a slightly damp load.
3. Most modern dryers also have sensor drying, which automatically stops when clothes are dry. This is often more efficient.
4. To switch from a timed program to a sensor program, turn the main program dial away from the timed options (like ’20 min warm’).
5. Select a sensor-based program instead, such as ‘Cottons’, ‘Synthetics’, or ‘Mixed Load’.
6. With a sensor program selected, you can then choose the desired final dryness, such as ‘Cupboard Dry’ or ‘Extra Dry’.
7. Press ‘Start’ to begin the automatic sensor-controlled cycle and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
