Splendide combo WD802 not drying

I've have my Country Coach for a year but just now tried out the Splendide washer/dryer. The wash seems to work fine but the clothes won't dry. I'm getting heat for sure but the unit runs in one direction for a 10-15 seconds, stops and turns the other direction for the same amount time and repeats. Any ideas? I've run them at least two hours and always the same dampness.

30 or 50 amp power? How many amps of power u showing? Could be a limit on the heat. Mine drys OK but really not that fast. We got a Collapsible dry rack to help dry.

With any used unit there can be problems ( your profile shows this is in a 1999 RV), if this is a vented combo unit , go to the outside vent while the unit is running in the dry cycle and make sure there is good air flow out the vent.
Had to help a neighbor pull his combo unit out and clean out the flex " S " vent connector ; between the drum and the rear frame of the unit ; it was plugged with wet lint, and his rig was only two years old.

Ok, problem solved! I finally found the vent screen and it was plugged solid. Cleaned it and now the dryer works great!

Where was the vent screen located? Just curious, have the same unit here and didn't know where the screen is located.

Outside wall behind the unit you should see a flapper vent!

Our WD802 had the same problem when we bought the MH in 2012. It has the outside vent, and I found there was almost no air coming out when it was drying. The problem was that the flexible hose from the drum to the rear of the unit was almost totally clogged with old, wet lint! It works great now!

Mine is accessible from the cabinet above the washer/dryer on the rear left. It has a thumb hole to remove a small rectangular inset in the floor of the cabinet. With a flashlight you can easily see and remove/replace the screen
