We have a miele dishwasher and are getting a technical fault 68 error message. We have turned the dishwasher on and off and this did not fix the problem.

Restart the program.
If the fault message
appears again contact
Technical Service.

The water valve on Miele dishwashers is built into the end of the water line where it hooks into your plumbing(in that box-looking assembly) Your best bet is to call Miele USA, I have had very good luck with their customer support system, they can usually diagnose your problem right over the phone.

water intake fault at start of step, check tap turned on & inlet hose not kinked, does the box at the tap buzz within the 1st couple of minutes after starting?

Hi,
It is probably a drain fault. Try checking the drain spigot at the sink end where the drain hose connects as these are usually the cause of most dishwasher faults.Or else try checking the airgap at the top of your sink, if nothing there then check the end of the drain line usually connected to the garbage disposal if you have one. I would reccomend disconnecting the end of the drain line and putting it into a bucket. Let the dishwasher run for 30 seconds and if it drains then its a problem with your garbage disposal. If not contact Miele technical support nearby to troubleshoot the fault code

Hi,
The error F14 in your dishwasher is due to water intake fault with heater or circulation pump, or something like that. The circulation pump would have been clogged. Try to clear it and your problem will get fixed

Hello RD,
Every Miele dishwasher is designed to drain water in the first 30 seconds of any cycle. Does your intake/drain light come on at all? Miele technical services can troubleshoot the fault code if you do get an intake/drain light.
The most common issue I have seen is that the dishwasher drain line is clogged.
Solution - Try checking the airgap at the top of your sink, if nothing there then check the end of the drain line usually connected to the garbage disposal if you have one. I would reccomend disconnecting the end of the drain line and putting it into a bucket. Let the dishwasher run for 30 seconds and if it drains then its a problem with your garbage disposal.

Good luck
