What the F62 Fault Code Means
The F62 fault code indicates that the programme selector — the dial or electronic switch used to select wash programmes — is defective. The machine cannot detect changes to the selected programme, which prevents it from operating correctly.
Common Reasons This Fault Appears
Faulty programme selector dial
The rotary selector switch may have worn out or developed an internal fault, preventing it from registering position changes correctly.
Faulty electronic selector
On models with touch or electronic programme selection, the selector circuit may have failed.
Wiring fault
A loose or damaged connection between the selector and the control board can prevent the board from receiving programme selection signals.
Control board fault
In some cases the control board may not be processing the selector signals correctly even if the selector itself is functioning.
Safe Checks You Can Try
Rotate the programme dial
Turn the programme selector through all positions several times to check it responds and moves freely. Sometimes debris or wear can cause intermittent contact issues that a few rotations can temporarily resolve.
Restart the washing machine
Switch the machine off at the mains and leave it unplugged for at least 2 minutes before restarting to clear any temporary fault.
Miele advises that if the fault persists, the appliance cannot be repaired without professional assistance.
