Need a model number - however F70 usually refers to water entering the drip tray on the bottom of the unit - this activates the float switch and causes the machine to cease all actions - and start the drain pump to evacuate the water

SOURCE: F70 fault error keeps appearing on my Miele

Hi,

it is the float switch in the base of the unit, which registers a water leak. you are probably using too much detergent and it is overflowing into the base.

F70 means the float switch in the bottom catch pan has been activated. This could be due to an internal leak in the dishwasher or oversudsing.

SOURCE: Miele dishwasher doesn't work.error F70

When this problem happened to our machine, it was simply the pipes under the sink where the dishwasher drain pipe fits were blocked with muck. This was preventing the one way valve connecting the drain hose to the household waste from fully opening thus preventing the machine complete its drain cycle.
Solution was to thoroughly clean the sink drain pipes - plunger, power plunger and then a dose of chemical cleaner. Dishwasher is as right as rain now:)

SOURCE: miele dishwasher had F85 on the screen

Hi
On that model to save water and energy water is sent to bottom and middle spray arms alternately. This is done via a shutter in the circulation motor. F85 mean this shutter is jammed,Most likely with debris,But is possible motor is faulty

SOURCE: 2 year old miele dishwasher runs without being turned on.

hi,
A F70 fault is the float switch in the base of the unit which is activated due to water in the base. you may have used too much detergent or the wrong detergent causing the unit to over sud or you have a genuine water leak. the continous running noise is the drain pump trying to remove any water.
you need to remove the bottom panel, turn the power off and dry up the water with a towel. then run it again and see if you can see a leak.
hope this helps

What does f70 mean on a miele dishwasher?

F70 means that water is in the bottom tray of the Dishwasher - this could be for several reasons - Ranging from using to much soap to a faulty seal. Most Mieles have a panel at the toe kick that can be opened to extract the water and allow the unit to dry out - remove the toe kick and look for the panel in the center of the unit - two T20 Screws securing it

How to fix leak in miele dish washer g1202 svi has F70 fault and small leak into catch pan

The reason the pump keeps running when F70 fualt appears is that the water leak circuit has tripped which causes the dishwasher controller to empty the dishwasher to avoid flooding of the motor and pump area.

The sources of leaks could be many, to start with hoses and water inlet valve. If you feel you can handle such repairs then go ahead otherwise call a technician.

Make sure the mains power is turned off when you are working with the dishwasher internals.

What does the fault F70 mean for a Miele G 1534 Sci dishwasher, please?

hello,

The code is an indication of a problem on the washer

F67 means the input voltage on the microprocessor is incorrect. Code F70 indicates a problem with the water temperature sensor circuit. F76 means the NTC temperature for the cold water valve is over the limits.

thanks.
