This is a good video.
My dishwasher is a G 2470 SCVi from 2009. It recently issued an F70 error code and I used this video to be able to figure out what was going on. In short, once I followed the suggestions in the video I found that one of the two feed tubes (that feed the middle and top spray arms inside the dishwasher was leaking. A pinhole leak, but clearly visible on the right rear side of the unit. I could see that there were 2 tubes coming off the pump. Given the age of the unit (and never a problem with it till now, which is pretty good) I ordered both feed tubes. I had to wait about 2 weeks for the long tube that carries water to the top of the unit. The short tube was in stock. IT WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT I ORDERED BOTH FEED TUBES.
Once the parts arrived, I took the right side panel off (All left and rights from here on will be relative to your view when facing the front of the dishwasher), I could access the feed tubes and where they were coupled to the pump. The tubes themselves are durable plastic, but they connected to the pump with a soft silicon like cream coloured coupler tube about 2 inches long. This is where I could see the one pinhole leak was coming from. In order to get the short tube out, I disconnected the long tube as well. The result was that both of these silicon like couplers just disintegrated in my hands just by me disturbing them. They were both literally at the end of the road.
Changing the tubes was relatively straight forward. Just plug and play.
BUT, a couple of pointers.
1. the F-70 code is actuated by a circular styrofoam disk float. As water is trapped in the pan, the float rises and in doing so closes a switch that then puts the unit into full drain mode, nonstop. Once you take the bottom pan off, there is not much holding that float there other than a wee bit of friction between the foam disk and the plastic hanger assembly. Mine fell off due to the jostling of the machine. And it definitely has a top and a bottom and it's not labelled as such. Fortunately, you can see in this video that the top side of the float has a small nub on it that presses the switch which puts the unit into drain mode. Problem solved thanks to this video.
2. Upon receiving the parts, I installed them and put the right side cover back on while the unit was still on blocks and ran it through a regular cycle. No leaks and no issues!! Great, I thought, now I will put the rest of the unit back together. Now this is where it gets interesting. First I drained out all the water with a turkey baster from the bottom sump inside the unit. Then I laid the unit on its right side in order to put the bottom pan back on. But the bottom pan has a flange that sockets into the side panel. So rather than fight to get the right side of the bottom pan into the rideside panel, I rotated the unit from its right side over and onto its left side. MISTAKE. You will note that when you lay the unit on its side on the floor that some water spills onto the towels on the floor. I think, but I'm not sure, that this is because even though I drained the sump inside the unit, there is a water holding tank under the unit (a trap to prevent ingress of sewer gas?). And the water leaks out. So when I subsequently laid the unit on its left side, some water drained out, and it soaked some electrical components. Ooops.
So once I stood it up and put it back to where it belonged, it would not turn on. It just sat there. No error codes, but the LED indicators and timer both came on. Sigh. I was a little torqued up because I suspected that it was a water mixing with electrical issue and now I would need to call Miele service as a result of my best DIY efforts. I dried as much as I could see was wet and then tried to start the unit. This time, I got an F24 error code. Which is a problem with the heater control relay. So ok, at least I was getting that and I knew that by laying it on its left side, I was getting water mixing with electrical. (But keep in mind, laying the unit on its right side did not cause this Error Code F24) So I removed the right side panel again and put a fan on the floor blowing into the bottom of the unit overnight. In the morning, happily, the thing fired up. Thank Christ.
Now I had to put the bottom pan back on. This time, again, I turkey baster removed the water from the bottom internal sump. But I also had my wife rotate the left side about 6 inches off the floor while I removed more water from the bottom sump with the turkey baster. In addition, I put paper towels in the bottom sump to soak up the water. Now I laid the unit on its right side only. No more laying it on its left side. Once I righted the unit, it fired right up again.
So the moral of the story (sorry for the long explanation) is to do everything you can to get water out of the bottom sump and only lay the unit on its right side. (Right when viewed facing the unit.)
