A person has seen my vid on Youtube and has left a comment that the problem may be a Flow Meter. This took me to an earlier post, which I hadn’t seen, on UK Whitegoods forum, as attached below.
Do you think a Flow Meter is the likely issue. If so, it may be BER (..beyond economic repair) if it needs a new circuit board.
Dave,
Does the attached video answer your questions or suggest anything I can try next?
Although the video is only 5 minutes, this “cycle” of six flashes of the red Inlet-Drain light continued but I turned the Miele G1143sc off after 20 minutes. By then, the water level filled the sump and was just about above the mesh that’s part of the “lid” holding the funnel shaped filter in place.
Dave,
Thank you for your prompt message. Of course you are right, it is my Miele G1143sc.
By the valve – do you mean perhaps the Aquastop type valve that is built into the Inlet hose.
If so, is UK Whitegoods sku – f 519071 as – the part that fits my Miele G1143sc dishwasher. I know there is no guarantee it will fix my problem of course,. But if there’s a chance that it will, I would like to replace the part anyway if only to eliminate a possible cause.
PROBLEM SOLVED: Using the UKWhitegoods’ “Search for an engineer” function, I rang a chap, based in London E16, yesterday. He came later the same day, spending about an hour fixing the problem. My dishwasher now works perfectly. No replacement parts were required – so I didn’t waste money on replacing something that turned out to be OK. The engineer said the issue was due to:
– a digital sensor needed cleaning re-setting and
– the front water level was incorrectPreviously I’d not heard of these as possible faults but, whatever, I am very pleased to have a fully functional, super quiet, machine.

Dave, yes indeed and thank you. As a guess only, do you think it is likely that a faulty “hose” is the cause of my problem. The valve inside the hose (inside a large bar-of-soap shaped plastic cover) doesn’t seen to indicate any obvious signs of problems – no noise or heat for example. Maybe I’ll just replace it anyway, if only to eliminate the possibility.
