    Miele seal not flush

    I have replaced a spider I replaced a corroded aluminum alloy one with an iron one and it poked out too. It came from a w800 and went into a w460. Due to the seal design of the w460, I decided to scrap it as the drum approached a very thin section of the seal. I also replaced a corroded...

    Miele TWF640 - Drying temps

    How does a drier measure load size? These smaller loads leading to higher temperatures. I wonder what constitutes small too.

    Miele TWF640 - Drying temps

    We have shrinkage Only with certain items Peter Alexander pajama tops shrink. The sleeves get short and the body shortens too. Luckily they are not my pajamas. We have a Miele heatpump drier. I blame the other half. She likes to dry using the Cotton setting. I prefer all clothing dried...

    Vehicle repairs

    Exhaust issues Are awful. As someone who can repair their own car, I have been fortunate to only do it once in terms of the muffler. It was a 1993 Honda Civic and the rearmost muffler needed replacing. Luckily the local pick-n-pull had one and it was an easy job to remove. Installing it...

    Are BSH machines inefficient or the others just very efficient?

    The more wash water to heat the higher the energy consumption. I don't think rinsing would add much in terms of energy. Miele machines seem to do a more dry wash. The singlewash option is very stingy.

    Dehumidifier or Tumble Dryer

    Dehumidifier, desiccant or with gas? I have a desiccant type and it is excellent. It produces a lot of heat and I use it as a supplemental heater. It is noisy though. The process it uses to dehumidify does remind me of the Bosch dishwasher and its zeolite. BigCliveDotCom opens one up to...

    Weird repair Ways

    Can you show a picture of your repair? A repair or a bodge, it doesn't matter so long as it works. I once bought a cheap Miele W828 (Loved that machine) and I did a bodge-job. There is a plastic upright piece that stops backflow. That cracked so I used a soldering iron to melt together the...

    Miele G7000 series service manual

    I have a love-child G6000/G5000 I can put it into service mode with the door open. Door open, machine off, hold OK down and long-press ON button until a beep. I then let go of the ON button and push the OK 3x or 5x, but holding on the 3rd or 5th. It was a G6590 that had a damaged body. It was...

    Miele G7000 series service manual

    I don't think its available If the manual enters the public arena, it's because someone has let it escape. (A bitter employee perhaps?) An issue with your new baby? If it's programming/options/diagnostics then it probably follows the G 6000.

    New to me Asko washer and dryer set!

    Lovely looking machines Loved the look but scared that they are fragile. Seen many rusty around the detergent drawer. If you are rummaging inside, please post some pictures. Love looking at the innards. Richard

    Miele KM 7667 FR - Do you need it? No, but...

    Congratulations on the new purchases The speed is very handy and also I don't miss the heat from older electric elements. Does yours make an irritating high-pitched noise when you put cold pots on and crank it up to full power? Probably my cheap pots? Although the frypan was not cheap ($150...

    Miele not recognizing that door is closed.

    An explanation If the start LED does not flash and the door release button does not open the door, then the drum lamp cover might not be correctly closed. There is a switch that checks if the lamp covers correctly locked. If it is not then the symptoms you describe may arise.

    Miele not recognizing that door is closed.

    Interesting Hi, I was not expecting this. The door lock wires run to the on/off/door button unit. Other than checking this button unit for corrosion/continuity I am stumped. There are two wires that run from the button to the EDPW control unit. They seem to connect to the ribbon cable and...

    Miele not recognizing that door is closed.

    If you have a multi meter and are handy... The door lock has 3 pins. If you remove the door seal retaining spring and undo the two torx screws holding the latch in place, you can peel the seal back and unclip the latch from the holder. Check (without power going to the machine), that there is...

    When you close the lock with a screw driver or door does the light next to the start button start flashing?
