Splendide 2100XC not drying

I was just about to scrap mine for the same problem when I accidentally downloaded their trouble shooting manual. I read that the number one problem with inadequate drying in clogged vent. I was lucky enough to access that back of my unit. I discovered that rather then trimming the vent hose to size it was installed with a BIG "u" bend in it. Sure enough there was a lint ball the size of a cantaloup in it. I cleaned it out and trimmed the hose until it went directly to the outside vent. Then I went all the way back in the other direction to the drum. I had the DW shine a flash light in the drum and turn it by hand until I could see light from all the vent hose. Got a couple of mouse nest size pile from the rear of the drum.

Now the DW says it works better then it did when it was new. Sometime ask about what I did for the shaking and vibration.
