Good afternoon all,
The above washing machine leaks badly from the dispenser drawer front when filling, and I would like to be sure that I’m not overlooking something, prior to quoting for expensive replacement dispenser and drawer parts.
I’ve had a good look at the above, and the drawer closure is very good/tight, and checked for blockages in the dispenser to tub hose.
Water fills into the tub perfectly, and when the water leaks out from the drawer front, I stopped the machine, and there is no/very little water in the dispenser compartments.
So, I suspect that the drawer to the dispenser’s main body is not sealing, as several other makes and models are prone to…
Thanks in advance for any help!jonty
Looking at the parts diagram, I see that there is a “concertina hose” Part No: 5706041 which I imagine is a breather hose, and may be clogged?
jontyI’ve not seen any dispenser issues on these older Miele’s.
I would suggest it could be the dispenser tub hose, or the black hose from the filter chamber to the y joiner is blocked thus not allowing air balance.
before changing any parts, I would check and clear all the hoses attached to the y joiner. That would be my first go to.
