Have a leaking Miele G892 dishwasher that I'd like to diagnose and see if it's worth fixing.  Had to unstick the pump impeller a few years back, but otherwise it's been a good machine.   But now it just ruined the hardwood floor in front of it--the oak cupped from the water underneath.  :-(

There was an old thread with the service manual(s) files 

G60_800.pdf

Can someone provide these?   

Thanks!!

Service manuals are only available with the professional appliantologist package.

 

However, if it's leaking onto the floor it's probably a cracked drain hose. 99% of visible leaks on the 800 series are drain hose problems.  Any other leaks would go into the drip tray and activate the flood switch.

Pull the machine from the cabinet and take a look at that hose.

Drain hose part number 22441283

 

About $43

Bingo!  Cracked, intermittent drain hose.   I took off the covers and ran a cycle, and at first it didn't leak until i decided to move it around and check.    Sure enough.   

I also notice that slight sideways pressure on the solenoid that fits into the flat rectangular plastic water "distributor" (?) that takes up a good portion of the left hand (right hand if you are looking at the front door) will cause squirts of water to dribble out.   I reversed the position of the black ring gasket, but it didn't really help.   I suppose it's not a serious problem unless there is pressure from the soundproofing or cabinet on it (don't think there is), but it's a silly design, and the drip tray has a fair amount of salt/corrosion on it possibly from this source.   And I'm sure a new valve/gasket would be expensive.

Only $40, but I'm wondering if I shouldn't put the money into a new machine.   

Thanks so much for the help, really appreciate it!
