    Miele W1213 (US) main power wiring--help

    Well, I hooked up the 2 hot legs (which I had finally convinced myself were interchangeable), tied off the neutral, grounded the chassis, took a deep breath, and flipped on the breaker. Just finished my first load. The seller had insisted I should use the white neutral wire and make sure the...

    Miele W1213 (US) main power wiring--help

    That second link does seem to indicate clearly that the neutral wire of the 4-wire plug is unused. The "relay" box inside the machine (or whatever the module is that receives the 2 mains spade connectors) has one lug marked "L" and one marked "N". This suggests a polarity. I also found the...

    Miele W1213 (US) main power wiring--help

    Just got a used USA model W1213 as a replacement for my failing 1918. It came with no power cable. I didn't expect this to be an issue since I have the cord from my 1918...a four-wire AWG10 NEMA 14-30. All four connectors were used on the old machine. The newer machine has a main terminal...

    Miele W1918 flaking out electronically

    Very helpful community--thank you both for your sage advice. Got my new DMM now... There are paper labels on the plastic housing of each board. No burned looking components on either PCB. Lower board EL-101G tests OK on pin 9-10 (5 VDC out of 4-6 V acceptable) and just slightly out of...

    Miele W1918 flaking out electronically

    Thanks very much. I have been lucky enough to find a W1213 in working order and am having it delivered next week, as this machine already had other issues, probably related to worn shocks. It makes an alarming amount of banging during spins even if not overloaded--I have to stand there ready to...

    Miele W1918 flaking out electronically

    Hi, thanks, my DMM appears to be missing--probably lent it out. I ordered one and will test tomorrow. Are boards for these 19xx interchangeable, or do I need the specific 1918 5kg ones?

    Miele W1918 flaking out electronically

    My 1918 finished a load and I had to release the door manually because the LED panel was blank. I soon discovered the panel lights come on randomly and intermittently, not in apparent connection with any particular button or the door latch...I did a lot of tapping and jiggling of controls. I was...

    Miele W1986 Cold Water Intake Problem

    I bought one of the eBay knockoffs from a UK seller; also corresponded with Harold (dany96) in Germany regarding my W1918. None of the listings mentioned the W1918 in their compatibility list. These cheaper parts appear to differ from the original 03801391 primarily in that output 1 is reduced...
