Different causes

Miele with an EL200 electronic, generally are very reliable.

There's only one flaw: the electronic is extremely sensitive to imbalance.

In a well functioning machine, imbalance will only occur under too heavy load.

Miele developed a special process which consists of a sequence of rotations that vary in direction and speed.

This process guarantees that the laundry is evenly distributed around the outskirts of the drum before the spinning really starts.

The outcome of this process however relies heavily on the condition of the shock absorbers.

In models with an EL200 electronic, the change in direction happens almost instantly. This is why the process is so easily disturbed when the shocks are worn. As a consequence a 5 Kg. machine will eventually not be able to handle more than 3 Kg. of laundry without severe imbalance.

New shocks have a damping effect of 120 Newton.

After ten years of operating there's only little left without showing any signs of it on the outside.

Signs like trembling while spinning often are ignored, because they are assumed to be a consequence of the age.

If the imbalance is too severe, eventually the electronic will be damaged.

On account of this, we cannot grant warranty on repairs of EL200 electronics, if you don't exchange the shock absorbers.

Below you will find instructions for exchanging the shocks yourself easily.

What about the brushes?

If your machine has problems with rinsing and spindling, the motor function is disturbed.

Apart from the above mentioned causes, you might consider the following:

Repair advice

Of course you might consider calling a Miele technician.

He almost certain will propose a new PCB. Because of the age of the machine, you'll have to pay the full retail price (at least 250 pounds).

You also might call your local technician. He will charge you less for the visit. The price for the PCB however will be the same.

Many local technicians already have found their way to our service. These technicians will propose replacement by a PCB that has been overhauled by us instead of a new one.

Ask for warranty conditions. Technicians which use our service, are allowed to give a full year warranty on the cost of repair of the PCB.

Last but not least, you might consider sending the PCB to us for repair.

You ship the PCB to us and transfer cost for repair and shipping, and as advised, the amount for a new set of shock absorbers (see warranty conditions below).

Your PCB generally will be fixed and returned the same day as it arrives at our office.

How to replace the shock absorbers?

The shock absorbers have no suspension function, the only provide friction. The drum/tub combination hangs firmly in four robust steel springs. So you may safely remove the shock absorbers.
