"Check Drain" Miele washing machine

Postby stoobydale » Mon May 04, 2009 7:44 pm

Hi, Could someone tell me how to remove the side panels from my miele washing machine (Premier 500) please? The machine does not complete the cycle and says "Check Drain" I have tried to get the side panel off, but it looks like you have to remove the front to get at the last 2 screws. Thee seems to be a lot of Grey gunk and limescale inside the pipes. I have cleaned and descaled the front filter and the external waste pipe, I managed to get at one internal pipe to clean it but I really need more access. Any help would be great before I resort to the miele service engineer (££££).

Side panels don't come off. Front panel opens like a cupboard door. Then you can remove and clean the water level pressure system collecting bell on the front of the tub and it will probably work again.

Power off, first.

Which bit of "Unplug it" is causing the problem?
