Miele T5206 drier repair manual

Hi dear.
It is very complicated work. I can suggest you should not involve doing that but if you know what you are doing try that out. See if it helps.
Common problem: Stuck drying air fan shaft.
1- Unplug machine from power. Remove top cover.
2- RHS at the back,on outer drum horizontally mounted motor,drives a belt.
3- Try to rotate motor shaft (impeller) by hand, see if it's hard to rotate. Try to make it free to rotate.
3- If you have a capacitance meter, check value of capacitor should be in range of 2.5 uF if not replace capacitor.
Beyond that you need to get tech. to assist your machine. I hope that helps so far. Thanks.

Best is to get new parts rather than reconditioned parts when it comes to electronics ,

Hi,

There can be many reasons why your dryer will not start or turn...

The most common causes are the belt breaking or jumping off, or the motor goingbad...

Here are a couple of tips that I wrote will help you to figure out why yourdryer will not run...

Open the door manually.
Open the drain flap on front left bottom
The door release can be seen hanging, pull the cord, the door will open.
Close and open the door 2 or 3 times and your machine will work ok.

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

Sorry but I would strongly suggest that sending any part to Miele and paying Miele for fixing the fault would cost considerably more that a 'local' service engineer ;-0(
Also Miele would not necessarily accept someone sending parts or all of a washer to it.
'Local' Service engineers are available for exactly the purpose of avoiding customers having to send suspected faulty equipment back to the factory. Also factories are not normally set up for carrying out retail repairs.
So, sorry again. Call your local repair man who should have the equipment to diagnose and cure the fault ;-0)

Good luck,
John C

I solved the same problem by pressing the three reset buttons on the side of the heater element housing.
Under the machine, remove plastic ducting for exhaust air. Undo the shiny bracket which holds the heater housing in place. Gently pull housing down and when you turn it around you will find (sometimes very covered in fluff) three red reset buttons. press, so they stay in. replace all parts.. Worked for me, with a fairly heavily used machine with alot of fluff build up inside the heater element(this was removed carefully)

if this unit is only two weeks old,its safe to say its under warranty ,if you can't remedy this yourself by consulting the owners manual,contact the place of purchase &/or the manufacture,i'm sure they will be glad to repair or replace the dryer.any attempt by you or any unqualified person to repair this will void your warranty.hope this helps.thanx for using fix-ya

the tensioning device [ spring] is weak or the belt is stretched beyond its usable length. if a new belt has been installed, the tech didn't put the belt on the correct side of the tensioning device. it is possible to install it wrong.
