Error code F51
Appliance Dishwasher
Quick answer

F51 on a Miele dishwasher points to the pump pressure level switch. Miele classes it as a technical fault for service.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F51 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Pump pressure level switch fault.

When the display of a Miele dishwasher reads F51, the machine is reporting a fault with the pump pressure level switch. The entry does not name a model range or generation, so it applies to the dishwasher as a whole.

What to do about F51

Miele describes F51 as a technical fault that you cannot remedy yourself. No reset routine or cleaning job is listed for it, so the next step is a repair appointment rather than more trial and error at the machine.

Related codes

  • F52: the foam message, raised when too much detergent or rinse aid has been dispensed.
  • F53: a speed sensor fault, also a service matter.
  • F594: an electronic module fault that shows up on the same display.
