Machine not working, no display on front panel

Problem maybe that the START/PAUSE button has broken loose from the control panel. All the buttons are attached to control panel and "hinged" so when you press the button, the button presses a small button switch on the display control. You may have to order
the Control Panel.. Disassembly is required to inspect.
It would be least likely that the Display PCB is bad..

3 dashes (or bars) in our Miele W1119 washer display. Beeping. All lights are off and machine is not working. Miele service call: the light bulb in the drum was loose! He pushed it back in and the machine worked fine again. This solution is nowhere to be found. Only in the service manual according to the service tech.

You can order the part from appliancefactoryparts.com

You need to replace the entire control board. The display is built into it, but it is easy to replace.

You just need a screw driver to install the display control panel.
To install the part, do the following:
Turn off the unit and unplug it.
You need to remove the screws on the back of the unit and remove the back. It slides up. Then slide the sides toward the back. You need to remove the side without the water canister. The side with the water canister just needs to be slid back enough to reveal the screws at the top front of the unit holding the display. Remove those screws on both sides and gently pull the top front display cover off. There is a long ribbon (similar to one found on a hard drive in acomputer, which is exactly what this is) with a clip that attaches to the main control panel on the left side of the unit. Remove that (noting how and where it attaches - I mark everything), take apart the inside of the front panel to reveal the display board, remove and replace it along with the water tight seal. Plug the new display into the control board, reattach the top front panel to the body of the machine, reinstall the water container, plug it in and turn it on to see if it works. Mine did and so I reinstalled the sides - they just slide forward, then I reattached the back and the machine was good to go.
Hope these instructions help.

More than likely only a new display will fix it, it is that whole front silver panel with the buttons and display plus a big part of the wiring loom going lots of places inside the machine.

Hello
The display of these type of sets are of vaccum type one, which will have a heater filament inside. Like any other vaccum bulbs, the filaments of these part may get opened; and can be said damaged. It is a glass vaccum unit, can be located just behind the display window, will have to be replaced as a unit. OK.

No front panel readout on a UVW-1800 is caused by the audio bargraph display failing. This display has an auxiliary power supply in it that provides power to the front panel display.

they can trip inside you can't see it so flip them on ...off fast and hard push off very hard to reset

F12 is classed as a communiction error.
Either faulty connections or electronic panel

remove the two angle brackets top- back of machine and slide the top from front to back to remove.

Assuming that there is no provision for a panel darkening mode...the panel LCD is probably bad. You might try accessing the unit and unplug/replug in each connector. Sometimes, this will help. Be sure the wall plug is removed before doing this.
