Bosch washer/dryer F17 code

[Jovi3]

Hi, I have a Bosch Exxcel washer/dryer. It seems to wash alright but when I use the dryer code F17 comes up. When I turn it off and open the door the clothes are very hot and a pool of very hot water is in the rubber at the front. Does it sound like the inlet valve (which is what code F17 seems to be) I don't want to buy one if I can't be sure.

Did you find out what this was? I don't have any F 17 error codes in my book. If cold water isn't trickling to the condenser chamber during the drying cycle then the laundry comes out hot, wet and steamy.

 I still haven't had this checked but I found your link very helpful. Looks like I'm gonna need a test meter. Never done anything like this before so I'll have to tread carefully. No real rush as it washes ok.  I found the fault for the code F17 when I google it but wasn't sure how reliable that was. Many thanks for replying!
