  • ✨ MIELE DISHWASHER INTAKE-DRAIN LIGHT FLASHING - 3 Minute FIX ✨ This is an Easy Fast fix to unstick your Circulation Pump using a kitchen Fork. It really works and it works fast.
    If your Miele doesn’t get used often enough the water in the sump area below the filter dries up and the ciculation pump shaft seal dries up and prevents the pump from turning. Using a fork you can get the impeller freed up and your Miele working again😊
    Note: Some models have a plastic lip in front of the impeller that prevents this technique from working. Only about 20% have that lip.

    Scott, I wanted to add 2 comments that I hope you can add to your videos. The intake drain cover must be seated properly i.e. the left tab must be seated on top of the clip on bottom of washer (not under the clip). Additionally, if clearing the impeller is difficult, one can use a long straw to blow air withj water to clear under the impeller. This straw method and hot water can also be used to clear dishwasher detergent accidentally poured into the jet dry (drying blue liquid) compartment in the door.

    Hiya - I have fixed my dishwasher (and washing machine I believe) with your fantastic videos. After replacing a motor and heat sensor switch, I discovered my real plight was the top spray arm feed pipe - the nasty rubbery connection between the pipe and the motor has disintegrated. Do you have any hints how to either just make a fix for that rubbering bit, or replace the whole feeder pipe? Pipe appears to be $150 to buy :( Thanks so much for your help!

      Yep,
      That’s so common.
      Can you take a small section of the bad tube to the auto parts store and get a radiator hose that the old hose will fit inside and use hose clamps to hold the radiator hose in place.
      Can you send that same question to: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com

    Thank you. If we run a "rinse and hold"cycle first (which runs no issue) and then run normal wash cycle, it works! However, if we start right with normal wash cycle, intake light comes on 2-3 minutes and wash stops. I can't seem to get to or understand getting to impeller (we have futurama dimension). Will try oil next!

    Scott, your videos are great. Was wondering if you have advice on my G892 SCU Plus? It's displaying the error code F09 indicating the heater level switch not switching on at the end of thermal stops.
    Does this mean the heater level switch is faulty, or is it possible another component has failed. I just replaced the main circ pump, so I know how to replace the heater switch, I just want to make sure that is the failed component.
    One thing to note, when the dishwasher stops due to this fault, a humming/buzzing sound remains on and indicates some component is still energized, this may indicate another system issue.
    Thanks for your help!

Boy, was I fed up and had arranged for it to be scrapped but your tip worked perfectly. Thank you....Scott, is there anything I could do to leave the impeller in a lubricated state if I have to go away for a couple of weeks?

      The only thing that works is to remove the dishwasher from the cabinet and then takeoff the bottom panel and remove the circulation pump to manually get the impeller moving again.
      You could try first putting some boiling water in the dishwasher along with some rinse aid for 20 minutes and then try again to see if that willLoosen up that motor shaft seal

It wasn’t closing so I was just turning the water off under the sink manually after each use. I guess I’m lucky it lasted this long. If it had too much water, I opened the bottom panel and vacuumed the water and it would usually work, but now that stopped.
