First, make sure you need one. if you start a cycle, and the machine drains for 30 seconds, starts to fill, and then faults out on intake drain fault, you dont need a hps, your circulation pump is stuck. miele will send you a "hook tool" used for freeing the pump.
if your situation is not as I have described above, and your machine is faulting out later in the cycle, or will not heat, this is how you change the hps.
uninstall the dishwasher. **** up all the water from the sump under the triple filter. lay the machine on its side. remove the 4 phillips head screws that hold the bottom pan on. the hps is mounted to the circ pump at the back of the machine. push the locking tab in, and twist the hps a quarter turn. transfer the wires one by one to make sure they go back in the proper order. reinstall the switch. reinstall the bottom pan.

Thank you. Is the part only available from Miele?
yes, unfortunately. it is not a very expensive part though, should be under 30 dollars. 800 843 7231 dial 0 and ask for parts. all 800 series dishwashers use the same heater pressure switch.
Believe it or not - the part was $71. Came to $83 with tax and shipping.
