    Luckilly parts are quite cheap, boards do go, i’ve had to replace a PCB & motor on one of these recently. Check for breaks in cable loom, they have a tendacy to break the fine cables, especially ones going to solenoid valves, the top weight sometimes hits off loom & shorts out to frame & takes board with it.

    Re: Miele DW g627 F08

    There isn’t a model G627 to my knowledge, but however F08 is a heating level switch fault, basically when the machine fills with water & circulation motor starts there is not enough water pressure registered to make the pressure sw’ to bring on the heater.
    So start by looking for water fill problem… possible blockage in filter of water intake hose, or something blocking impellor of circulation pump or faulty pressure sw’.

    Re: Miele carbon brushes

    Whats the problem, sorry can you remind us.
    Motor end plate comes off completely, this can all be done from front of machine by removing front cover of machine, remove screws from endplate & take end plate off motor to check brushes, if you need to take out motor all together side panels can be taken off machine too.

    The Little Giant,

    Depending on the model, if it has a dump valve it allows 28 sec’ before giving thr drain fault code (going below level 1) or 40 sec’ if it has a drain pump, it continues for 2m20sec for dump valve or 3m20sec for drain pump before going to “end” position.
    Fault indication for this machine is if drain l.e.d flashes quickly 1/2 sec’ on 1/2 sec’ off & water still in machine it indicates Rinse Hold.
    If drain l.e.d flashes 1 sec’ on & 1 sec’ off it indicates drainage problem..
    Led [i] indicates level sw’ fault
    Led [ii] indicates heating/ ntc fault

    If machine drains completely & gives the fault i’d look at pressure vessel blockage, depends if all water is gone or not?
    If not, possible pump or blockage. Check if theres an obstruction anywhere in sump hose, filter or pump or drain hose.

    Re: miele dishwasher G640i

    On that model it means a fault has been registered during the cycle, you have to go into service mode to see actual fault, PM me for details.

    Faults that arise in these are float switch activated by leak, something stuck in non return valve at pump, you can check this from inside the dishwasher lift out the filter, see non return valve held in place with metal clip, be careful when turning pump impellor, sometimes broken glass there.
    Flowmeter or heater relay also worth of checking. Check that inlet water filter is not bunged up, they have a timed fill so this can cause problems.

    Re: Miele belt squeak

    Wee note to remember when replacing Miele belts, some machines use special belts with “conductive rubber” in them.
    Serious!
    They will give problems with electronics if genuine belt is not replaced.

    Re: miele dryers

    Did you run it empty? Remember they have a sensor to switch off machine when clothes are dry, so if no clothes in there it will shut down. For testing use “timed drying” program see if it works ok.

    Advise customer that black stains are probably there because she washes at low temp’ all the time, stains are likely to be bacteria or mould growth. Recommend that she does a service wash (boil) every so often.

    Re: Configuring Zan board!

    Price wise theres no real incentive to order non configured boards.
    Think for less than a fiver difference i’d go for the configured one.

    SideKick software is now being inroduced to Service Force engineers which will allow these non configured boards to be programmed via a laptop & interface connection rather than twiddling knobs & entering codes

    Re: Liebherr Fridge freezer

    Check fan is operating correctly this F4 fault can be caused by fan stopped due to ice build up, the sensors are prone to water ingress which gives a faulty reading, i’ve used a hairdryer to dry them off & put a smear of silicone sealant on & it cured it for me .
