Hi Hameed I have pulled mine apart and belt was broken as expected however when the belt broke the tension spring on the pulley came off and was laying on the bottom of the cabinet. I have hooked it back on to the metal pulley as I can see in your video however I cant see where the bottom of the spring hooks on to? All the parts I can see that I thought it may hook onto are plastic and I didn't think it would hook onto a plastic part? Are you please able to provide any information on where the bottom of the spring hooks on to? Cheers for any help
Thank you very much for your video! I have replaced the belt, but when installing blower wheel, the screws can only be screwed in halfway. Screws cannot be installed in place do you know how to do it? Do you need to add some wd40 to clean it up?
If the panel does not sit properly screw will not work its way . It’s actually the final area it can go but because panel is not in front of it you feel it’s halfway in in reality that’s the only way for screw to sit in position do not force it in . Play around with panel
@@hameedwafaAFG one thing I struggle with is the rear part is still holding the drum. It has to go forced up from the grease barrel? Almost there haha. Still waiting for the belt to be delivered
hey man thanks for the video... i was wondering, since this model isnt that old, why do you think this needed replacement so soon? Doesn't miele say their machines SHOULD last for like 20 years or whatever? Thanks!
Great job, usualy I prefer to remove the side panels too. it's easy: just unscrew the 4 torx T20 above and pull the panel up 1 inch to unhook it from the front. thanks and greetings from Italy
Great video. It gave me the confidence to do the job myself. Miele wanted €289 to get someone out so very satisfying to do buy the part for €25 and do iit myself. I did have a problem getting the fan off. It was really stiff. Had to turn the torx bit with a vice grip while a colleague held it in place. Also be sure that the carbon brushes are touching the drum . In my case the brushes has retracted up and i just had to push them down.
I tried to do this on the larger model, and I just couldn’t figure it out 😂. Unfortunately the pulley assembly itself broke with it so it gave me even more trouble.
Thanks. Just spent an hour trying to open this monster, similar one. You did me a huge favor man! I see unscrewing the fan was easy for you. Mine seems stuck and screw won't move with my drill. Have to use some wd40 over nigh probably. It is quite a complex. I usually tend to fix my own stuff but this one is definitely something new. Even more. I guess it is a first time I need to touch miele product. Usually it just works. Have it for only 3 years so i guess the belt was shit from the factory. Looked still new and broke on the place where it was vulcanized into circle I guess.
You can do it from the front but you still have to take one of the side panes off . That’s more complicated for new techs, new home owners and DIY projects . To answer your question no I have not but it’s possible 😁
