Miele WT945 Dryer Problems - Stage 2 fix
STAGE 2: EASY ROOT CAUSE FIX (1 hour)
The next stage is to attempt a cleanout of the fan box itself. Fortunately you can get to some of what is needed without dismounting the whole box (if you want to bite the bullet on this straight away, go to Stage 3).
Dismount the heater by undoing the two large bolts at the front holding it to the drum, and two Torx bolts at the rear. Although the heater is still attached to the flexible rubber outlet at the front, it will swing up and off to one side just enough to reveal an upward-facing hole at the rear – this is the air outlet from the fan box. Peer down into this hole and you will be astonished at the buildup of mummified fluff and goo – it’s similar to papier mache.
Draw up a comfortable chair, fix up a desk lamp to shine down the hole, and start unpicking the goo with a fine metal hook (a dentist-style hooked probe is ideal – Maplin do a good set). First clean out the hole, then probe deeper to clean out each fan blade. It’s fiddly and quite a long reach down the hole, but by no means impossible. Turn the motor manually to move on to the next blade, and every so often vacuum out the hole with a small nozzle to remove the pile of dislodged goo. Unfortunately the goo is too adherent to come out with the vacuum alone, without unpicking first.
Finally, if you are confident with moving parts and mains electricity, you could finish by using the first few seconds of a dryer cycle to get the fan itself to blow the remaining dislodged goo out of the hole. Have the vacuum going while you do this to avoid a fountain of fluff! Also, be very careful that the heater and its wiring does not obstruct the motor while you are doing this.
With luck this will make a huge difference to the dryer’s performance, not only eliminating the motor seizures but generally restoring the airflow power considerably.
If you’re still having problems, or if you have an uneasy feeling about all the goo you still suspect is in there that you couldn’t see or reach from the hole, read my next tip 'Stage 3/4 fix'.

Miele w2240 check drain and check inlet lights
There is water at the bottom of the machine. You could tilt the machine forward until the water dumps out and then the lights will go away. The cause of the problem could be the following:
1. There is a hole in the seal.
2. A hole in one of the hoses inside the machine.
3. Too much soap (the most common), the suds come out of the door and enter into the bottom.
Hope this works for you. Please leave a feedback.
I need a elektronik bord for miele washing
Hi,
The only Miele spare parts are direct from Miele or through a Miele service agent. Have a look on the Miele website for your nearest Miele branch or service agent in your country.
I work for Miele and they only sell parts this way. if you call the Miele spare parts number off the website and tell them what model washing machine you have and they will be able to mail one to you or advise a service technician to have a look at it.
Hope this helps.

Waterproof fault
I just received this error message on my Miele WPS 4146 (Waterproof Fault) Prior to this I had an error message regarding the Drain outlet, so I opened the drain outlet and cleaned it. I think I might have opened it too quickly and therefore creating the (Waterproof Fault). The problem is that when you open the drain outlet too quickly the water runs into the bottom of the washing machine where some sensor lies and you get the (Waterproof Fault) error message on the display and not even turning off the machine will do anything to get rid of this annoying message.
So here is the fix that worked for me.
1. Turn off the machine
2. Unplug it
3. Open the drain outlet and take out the plug.
4. Dry all the visible water with a cotton cloth.
5. Tilt the machine FORWARD and hold it until you see water gushing from underneath the machine.
6. Repeat this until you see no more water.
7. Plug the machine back inn.
8 VOILA no error message! I hope in your case :)
My parents have a Miele W5471 washing machine. It throws up an F93 error code and stops. The manual doesn’t give any clues. What’s wrong? What needs checking/fixing/ replacing?
Whirlpool Washing Machine FP or F9 E1 Error Code
If your washing machine is not working correctly it's safe to say it's developed a fault. A flashing FP or F9 E1 error code on the LCD display can ring alarm bells, but it's typically associated with a water draining problem inside the drum.
That's where eSpares come in! You've got the question's and we're sure to have the answers. By following our article below we can get you out of this dilemma and see that your laundry pile is back under control again.
Cause 1
Blocked Filter
Most washing machines won't start a spin cycle until they've fully drained the water from the wash.
If your machine is draining very slowly or not at all the most likely cause is a blockage somewhere in the drainage system and the most common is the filter.
Safety First! Please make sure that you have disconnected the appliance from the mains before beginning any repair.
The best way to check if your filter is blocked is to:
- Drain the water from the machine by lowering the drain hose below the water level to a bowl or your machine may have a drain hose near the filter
- Place a towel under the filter and pull the filter out to remove any debris that may have gathered.
- Check the pump impeller inside the housing turns freely and is not obstructed.
eSpares Top Tip: Check your filter as part of your regular maintenance to ensure your washer runs smoothly and ensure no drainage problems.
If the filter is damaged a replacement will need to be fitted, and you can see our extensive range of washing machine filters here within our extensive selection of washing machine spares.

Service manual novotronic w 833
Mine did it and it was the water heater relay which had ‘welded’ it’s contacts. I cleaned them up and away it went. Some years later the relay then occasionally stopped working so I replaced it with a second hand spare and machine continues to run well.
