Miele dishwasher error codes: how to resolve?

Modern Miele dishwashers are quite popular among consumers, because they have all the technical parameters necessary for high-quality washing. Sometimes, for one reason or another, errors appear in the functioning of dishwashers of the specified brand that stop the operation of the device. To understand what exactly the problem is and clearly understand how to solve it, it is worth knowing the error codes of Miele dishwashers and understanding how exactly they are deciphered.

How many error codes are there and what do they look like?

All error codes and interpretation

So, in the Miele dishwasher error code category, the user can find more than 30 items. Alphanumeric values ​​indicating that a malfunction has been detected in the dishwasher are as follows:

1. F01-02.
2. F11-15.
3. F18-19.
4. F24-26.
5. F32-33.
6. F 36, 40, 42, 47.
7. F51-53.
8. F67-69.
9. F84-88.

If dishwasher of the brand presented above, the code value F01 is displayed on the control display, this indicates that the temperature sensor has short-circuited, which means there are problems with heating the water for rinsing and washing, which does not allow these options to be activated. Not only the sensor itself, but also its connections can short-circuit, which is worth considering when such a three-digit code is detected on the screen.

If the alphanumeric alert F02 lights up on the display, it means that the temperature sensor of the device or its contact connections have broken and repair of the specified zone is required. If such a breakdown is detected, the dishwasher will not perform the washing and rinsing functions, and the person will receive a notification about the problem, accompanied by a sound signal.

Having discovered the F11 coding on the device display, the consumer must understand that the option to drain water into dishwasher didn't work. This signal may hint that it is worth checking the hose of the device, because, most likely, the drain is clogged.An error coded as F12 indicates an unsatisfactory level of water supply, as well as the closure of the shut-off valve. It may be a good idea to assume that the fluid intake valve is faulty when this code is detected.

A message on the display with the value F13 notifies the consumer that the washing process has stopped at a certain stage, which occurred due to malfunctions in the functioning of the drain pump. It is also possible that the valve that supplies liquid to the device is malfunctioning. Fault code F14 indicates a premature end of the washing program, but with the circulation pump running. It is possible that incorrect, early completion of washing is due to a malfunction of the pressure switch of the installed heater.

If the three-digit alphanumeric alert F15 appears on the screen, this may indicate a problem with the engine capacitor, as well as contamination between the harness and the plug, which causes a short circuit. Error number F18 indicates a malfunction of the valve that is responsible for the water supply. These malfunctions can occur due to various types of interference.

Code F19 indicates a malfunction of the flow meter, which means that too little or too much water is poured into the dishwasher and this process does not coincide with the normal time for this. The appearance of an encoding such as F24 is caused by moisture getting into the device relay. It would also be appropriate here to talk about a malfunction of the relay plug, its contamination or shorted contacts. Users who find code F25 on the display of their dishwasher should know that their heater has broken down or its relay has become faulty.Such a breakdown can occur due to an excess of added detergent or household chemicals for rinsing, which provoked the formation of an excessive amount of foam.

If a technical error pops up under the code F26, then the temperature sensor displays too high an indicator, which may be inaccurate, which indicates a malfunction of the part and the need to replace it. Also, such a code may indicate that the heater relay is closed at the time of operation of the device. The presence of error F40 indicates that the process of functioning of the electronics has gone wrong and has no ability to independently restore. Such an alphanumeric value may also indicate mechanical problems.

If a notification with code F42 pops up on the display of the dishwasher

, then the cause of this message is damage to the main power source of the device. The appearance of code F51 notifies that the contact of the heating relay is open, the solenoid is faulty, or the relay was not connected to the system. The code may also indicate that the heating pressure switch is shorted or the switch connections are broken, which often happens due to foreign objects getting into the mechanism. Code F52 appears when the pump pressure is too low and the pressure switch turns off automatically during water heating.

When the dishwasher displays the value F53, the equipment notifies the user that there is an error in the operation of the sensor that determines the speed of the program. Code F47 tells the owner of the dishwasher about errors in the frequency of the power outlet. If the value F67 appears on the display, then the circulation motor is operating at an excessively low speed.Such a breakdown can occur due to an excess of added detergent or household rinsing chemicals, which provoked the formation of an excess amount of foam.

If a technical error appears under code F26, then the temperature sensor displays an indicator that is too high, which may be inaccurate, which indicates a faulty part and the need to replace it. Also, such a code may indicate that the heater relay is closed when the device is operating. The presence of error F40 indicates that the functioning of the electronics has gone wrong and cannot be restored independently. Such an alphanumeric value may also indicate a mechanical problem. If on display dishwashers

If a notification with code F42 appears, the cause of this message is damage to the main power supply of the device. The appearance of code F51 indicates that the heating relay contact is open, the solenoid is faulty, or the relay was not connected to the system. The code may also indicate that the heating pressure switch has closed or the switch connections have broken, which often occurs due to foreign objects getting into the mechanism. Code F52 appears when the pump pressure is too weak and the pressure switch turns off automatically while heating the water.

The presence of error F70 on the machine screen is a signal that an error has occurred in the operation of the float switch. Also, the cause of the problem may be severe deformation of the pallet, which occurred after transportation. If F84 is displayed on the display, then the reason why the dishwasher stopped functioning was due to a factor such as the incorrect position of the gate valve.

Dishwasher error code F85 appears on the screen at the moment when there is a malfunction in changing the gate valve signals. The alphanumeric value F86 is displayed on the display if there is a malfunction associated with the contact of the salt container lid. The appearance of error F87 tells the consumer that the sensor responsible for regulating the water softening process has become faulty. Code on display dishwasher
