What the F2 Fault Code Means
The F2 fault code indicates that the NTC temperature sensor circuit has developed an open circuit — meaning the electrical connection to the sensor has been broken. Without a functioning temperature sensor, the machine cannot monitor or regulate water temperature and will stop the programme.
Common Reasons This Fault Appears
Failed NTC temperature sensor
The NTC sensor may have failed and is no longer completing the circuit. This can happen due to age, water ingress or damage.
Broken or disconnected wiring
A break in the wiring between the NTC sensor and the control board will cause an open circuit and trigger this fault code.
Loose connector
A connector that has worked loose from the sensor or the control board can interrupt the circuit and produce the F2 fault.
Safe Checks You Can Try
Restart the washing machine
Switch the machine off at the mains and leave it unplugged for at least 2 minutes. Reconnect the power, switch back on and restart the programme. If the fault was caused by a temporary glitch this may clear it.
Miele advises that if the fault persists after a reset, the appliance cannot be repaired without professional assistance.
