Miele Vacuum Repair: Miele Powerline C3 Vacuum Cleaner Starts/Stops by iteself

Wed, 20 Nov 2024 18:51:26 -0700

I have a powerline C3 Miele which was working fine for 5 years. It suddenly has started a strange behaviour, which makes it unusable! WhenI swtich on it cuts out/ switch off after 10 seconds being on, then after few seconds it switches back on for another 10 seconds and it goes on like this (left it for 5 min or so, still does the same thing). I replaced all the filters, checked for any blockage (except inside the motor) and do not know what is is the problem? Anybody had similar issue with their machine??

Miele S8340 Staubsauger: Rewind on power cable

Tue, 24 Sep 2024 14:58:38 -0700

Our ‘pretty old’ Miele vacuum cleaner (its model C3 not the one above but I don’t know how add a model to the lookup table above) ratchet that rewinds the power cable when you press the RHS ‘comfort’ button stopped working a few days ago in that it wouldn’t lock when you pulled yards of cable out, just kept rewinding it back in. I’d done a ‘work around’ with a piece of wood to stop it. Now yesterday it pulled out a short way and has locked altogether and is just stuck. Looked on YouTube and was amazed to see how big the plastic wheel is inside that controls the power cable rewind function. At 74 with Rheumatoid Arthritis I don’t think I’m capable of taking the hoover apart to try and fix and no doubt Miele will want the price of 2 new vacuum cleaners to repair it! Other than use a long extension lead and carry it round the house I can’t think of anything better - any ideas please?

Miele Vacuum Repair: Running only on the lowest setting

Fri, 22 Sep 2023 03:11:33 -0700

My Miele vacuum, ECOTEQ PLUS only runs on the lowest setting, which means there is not much power when sucking up dirt. The buttons which allow me to increase suction don't respond when I press them. Can anyone help me what to do? I would like to avoid calling out a Miele expert as it might be expensive and difficult living in the countryside in Mid Wales.

Thanks for any tips.

Miele S828 Vacuum cleaner: Miele hoover stop working

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 07:42:04 -0700

I turn it on and every minute it turns itself off, what could be the problem?

I've already cleaned the filter, changed the bag, and replaced the fuse.

Miele Vacuum Repair: The speed setting is shifting on power off.

Hi, i am experiencing weird behavior with miele c3 with pushbuttons for setting speed. When I power the vacuum off, certain settings jump to different speed preset. Some settings dont change.
