I have a Miele Novotronic W 828 the check inlet red light is flashing - what do I do?

SOURCE: Water inlet flashing ,not filling,

Hi Paul,

We currently have a similar problem with our W939. I took the front panel off and found that the Miele service folks had incorrectly routed the ribbon cable linking the fill level sensor with the control panel and severed one of the wires. The machine was reporting a series of errors, one of which was an outlet blockage and the discharge pump was not working.

The relevance to you is that your problem may be a loose or broken wire or corroded terminal.

Try turning the machine on its side, undo the bottom and check that the polystyrene float (attached to a switch) is not somehow jammed. This float cuts off the water if the machine leaks internally, and produces the symptoms you describe. It's a really good machine so don't throw it away!!

If that still doesn't help then it might also be the motor brushes, which produce similar symptoms - if your machine starts to fill but then flashes and just drains again, it's almost certainly the brushes. This might be the case after you check the float problem.
