FAULT

Specialized compartment number 1 does not maintain the desired temperature and displays error F117.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

The evaporator temperature sensor associated with the first additional compartment is defective.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED

1Turn off the power supply to the device. Access the evaporator of the compartment concerned. Test the temperature probe attached to it with a multimeter. Replace it if the measured value is abnormal.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols

!Electrical Safety Protocol: Disconnect 230V electrical mains power before removing appliance side or rear panels.
!Ensure tub water or heating chamber has cooled below 30°C before unclipping thermistor probe.
!Use CAT III 600V/1000V insulated test probes when tng at PCB edge connectors.

3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks

Inspect sensor immersion sleeve for calcification, limescale scale, or thermal paste degradation.
Check wiring harness for pinch points, chafing against chassis metal, and terminal pin oxidation.
Verify probe is firmly seated in its rubber grommet or bracket inside the water/air circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions: Miele F117

FAQ TREE

What does error code F117 mean on a Miele appliance?

Miele error code F117 indicates: Specialized compartment number 1 does not maintain the desired temperature and displays error F117..

What is the root cause of Miele error code F117?

The primary root cause for Miele code F117 is: The evaporator temperature sensor associated with the first additional compartment is defective..

How do I fix or resolve Miele error code F117?

To resolve error code F117: Turn off the power supply to the device. Access the evaporator of the compartment concerned. Test the temperature probe attached to it with a multimeter. Replace it if the measured value is abnormal.

Is it safe to clear Miele error code F117 by resetting power?

Resetting power (unplugging for 5–10 minutes) clears temporary memory errors. However, if Miele code F117 persists, the physical component causing The evaporator temperature sensor associated with the first additional compartment is defective. must be inspected or replaced.

How do I test electrical resistance for Miele code F117 using a multimeter?

Set a digital multimeter to ohms (Ω). Disconnect power and test NTC Temperature Sensor Probe (Thermistor) across Across sensor pins 1-2 (unplugged harness). Expected nominal reading is 4.8kΩ–12kΩ (at 20°C–25°C). Tolerance: Negative temperature coefficient: resistance drops smoothly when warmed with fingers. OL = open circuit..

What safety protocol must be followed before servicing Miele code F117?

Standard electrical safety protocol: 1. Disconnect 230V mains power before opening panels. 2. Verify zero voltage at test points. 3. Allow hot water or heating elements to cool below 30°C before handling.
