The drum on my Miele Touchtronic w113 washer does not spin. It may be due to water left in the system for several months. How can I fix it?

Question edited for a lot more clarity, plus add maker.
Question moved to make model category.

What does it do after wash? There are programs that do that on purpose.

Page 13 refers final spin soak, so as not to crease clothes

Page 11 refers to Wash 2 hour soak

Operating instructions Washer W 1113

Instructions Manuals https://www.instructionsmanuals.com > files PDF The laundry is not spun and remains soaking in water. This will prevent wrinkles if the laundry is not removed immediately at the end of the wash program.

open up and see if any brackets are bent or broken

Hi Chantal,
In my many years repairing Miele machines - the most common problem for what you are describing is the underwire from a bra has got in between the inner and outer drum. It's tricky to get out and can be done if you are good with tools and a little technical - but it does involve opening up the machine, removing one of the heating ellements and searching / fishing it out. Another less common reason for this rubbing noise could be the metal heater element bracket that also sits between the inner & outer drum, has bent - but this is normally caused by a bra underwire. Hope this helps.

The door switch is bad.

Attached is a IPB for the drain section - are you speaking of Item number 1? This was an issue at one time with the intake side - a piece of felt glued to the drum stopped the chaffing.

I assume you are saying the machine is working except the drums not turning? - you need to see if the belt has come off because thats what i would check first if you hear the motor start/stop after it fills up with water.

Hi dear.Please check the door gasket for any wear & tear.(Also open the door,ajar inside the door gasket, check inside of it for any fine tear or cut.)Please check for pump filter.Is it attached correctly.I hope that helps.Thanks.

If you suspect the dish washer, try discharging the drain in a bucket. After the drain cycle check the wash tub. If water is still left, you have to clean the drain filter attached to the bottom. Refer user guide.

The final drain end of the dish washer where you discharge, the fixing junction has to be cleaned, incase it is clogged.

Check the hose going to and from your pump which is located on the bottom of your machine. You prob ably have a underwire preventing ytour pump from spinning.

There is a float switch in a pan under the machine. This pan is probably full and the float switch is causing the Intake & Drain fault signal. You can lean the machine over to towards the front to partially drain the pan. Put a towel down to catch the water. When you put the machine level again the fault lights should be out. The real question is where did the water come from. You can easily remove the top (4 screws, 1 on each side behind the little plastic caps and 1 on each side of the back. Torx heads) and look down inside while you start the cycle. Look for leaks.
Good Luck,
Dan
