Fault F63
Roger
Depending on the model number - (guessing its a W48XX series) F63 is a water path fault - This is the control unit that directs the water flow to the proper path (pre-wash, detergent, fabric softener ect..... ) Sometimes and audible clicking can be heard when this unit fails as it trying to switch to the proper path as per the program being ran.
How to fix Miele W1918 washer drain pump always running unless machine is turned off or unplugged
Does the pump run before any water enters the washer? If so, then you have a problem with the control board or a problem with the pump control.
The more common issue is a siphon. This starts when the water going into the machine gets higher than the end of the discharge hose in your stand pipe or laundry sink. Fixing a siphon is easy - lift the end of the drain hose so that it is higher than the highest water level of the washer. You may need to lengthen the stand pipe. (The maximum height of the stand pipe can be15'; that's maximum height that the pump can push the water.) If you are using a floor drain, then the anti-siphon/air gap system is damaged.
I hope this helps. There are parts available for the Miele W1918 online. You need to enter the serial number of the washer to get the right pump or control board.
