How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and unplug the unit before opening any panels. Only qualified persons should work on mains circuits.
- 1. Verify outlet:
- Test the outlet with another device to confirm power.
- 2. Inspect power cord:
- Check for cuts, burns, or kinks; replace if damaged.
- 3. Access mains entry:
- Remove the rear or lower panel to inspect the mains terminal block and line filter.
- Ensure connections are tight and there is no visible damage.
- 4. Internal fuse:
- Some Miele boards have a replaceable fuse; if blown, investigate cause before replacing with the exact type and rating.
- 5. Main board replacement: If power reaches the board but it remains dead, the board’s power supply is likely failed and the board must be replaced by a technician.
