Miele G653 SCVI PLUS dishwasher

[boselecta]

Hi Guys,

I fitted the motor seal / impeller kit two weeks ago as it was leaking into the base.

Just been called back as dishwasher now drains out continuously and the inlet/ drain light comes on after about 40 seconds.

There is no water in the base and I’ve checked the motor impeller again for blockages.

The dishwasher does not seem to attempt to take in any water.

This is the older model with the pressure switch and not the one with the reed switch on the water tank.

Anyone got any ideas as dont want to have to refund the customer!?

thanks

does it start pumping the minute you turn it on or only when you set a programme?

Only when a program is selected and the door is shut, then after 40 seconds the drain / inlet light comes on

does that one have a second pressure switch under the door rh side? might be worth looking at if so, pressure chamber for that one is under the lower spray arm mount.
Also has it got an aquastop valve? if so the connector for the remote valve is in a vulnerable position on the right hand side below the door hinge area, it often gets leaked on by a slight drip from the solenoid that is on the rh air break, shorts out and gooses the electronic so a major issue if so. If the plug there is burnt then suspect that is the case.

Broken wire in door harness? Had same fault and that was the cause.
