Miele W916 front-loading washing machine filling very slowly

I have a Miele W916 front-loading washing machine which fills slowly. I thought it might have been the electronic valve in the waterproof inlet hose, so installed another hose - but same problem! Any ideas what else to look for?

Hi
There are two variant of this model one with normal fill hose and triple valve and one with waterproof system and triple valve. If you have change water proof hose (one with grey box on end) then it only leaves the triple valve.if waterproof hose is fitted be sure to order 110volt triple valve

    We had the same problem with W1966, but we solved it differently. The problem was the cold water valve for the main wash and rinse. Since we do not use fabric softener, I swaped the two valves hoses and electric connection. Swapped terminal 3 and 4. This part is very hard to find, because it a 240VAC type, in the USA. Any one know where to find it?

Miele w310..drum fills with water slowly after a wash.put my head in...cant hear water leaking into it..

Did you open the water tap complete? When it is open all the way already, please close the tap complete and remove the hose and check the filter closest to the tap. Eventually clean it and put the hose back. Don't forget to open the tap again and check you did tighten the hose. (No leakage)

Miele washing machine w 487 check drain and check inlet

Clean out the pump trap. If you are on well water or just have very hard water, your inlet valve may be becoming constricted as well, remove the fill hoses from the back of the machine and shine a bright light into the valve to see if the screens are getting clogged with debris: In this case, follow the instructions the computer is giving you.

After washing -washer slowly fills with water and runs out the door--not every time it is used. First noticed clothes still wet needing to run spin cycle--then washer leaked on floor over week end and...

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

I would suspect the water inlet control valve may be malfunctioning- not closing (its default no power position).
Quick temporary fix, although tiresome, turn whichever tap, hot or cold, off when washing finished. You've probably already thought of that!
In the meantime I would suggest a service call is required ;-0(

Miele washing machine

All Miele washing machines and dishwashers need to fill in a required time. Flashing inlet (Tap icon) indicates that the machine can not fill in time. There are filters in the end of the hoses which connect to your water supply from the machine and filters in the inlet valves which you can get at by removing the hose from where it fixes onto the machine it'self. You will need some long nose pliers to grab the little tab on the small filter to get it out. Clean all filters and hoses. Still same problem then check the pressure of the water coming into the machine. There should be a good pressure coming out of the hose and will be difficult to stop the flow of water with your finger.
