how to I open my Miele washing machine for repair?
I need to open the casing of my Miele ‘Novotronic Premier Plus’ washing machine to investigate a fault. I can open the lid easily. Looking inside, it looks as if the front side of the casing will open so I can get at things. Looking down inside the front right hand corner it looks like there is a sort of catch which when released might enable the front to swing open. I cannot see how to budge it. On other machines I have had in the past, the back comes away for access. With this one, the 2 sides and back are all one piece of metal, so the front must come off somehow. Does anybody out there know how? The problem I am investigating is one where it blows the domestic power circuit when near the beginning of a wash programme. Other programmes like rinse & spin work OK so I guess the problem might be something to do with the heater. Until I can get at it I can go no further. Please help.
