Two stainless steel moisture-sensor bars sit next to the lint filter, and residue on them can make loads come out damp or trigger a sensor-related code. Source: Bosch - Dryer Not Drying Completely
Heat pump models can use an optional condensate tank instead of the drain hose; a drain indicator lights when the tank is full or the hose is kinked or blocked. Source: Bosch - Use and Care Manual, Heat Pump Dryer WTW87NH1UC
