Started as a sporadic fault. Checked the drain pump impellor as the manual suggests, cleaned the filters, and pressed a combination of start/stop and on/off buttons but the machine stopped altogether and the inlet/drain warning light wouldn't go out. After leaving the dishwasher for 5 days as a last resort I proceeded to pull the dishwasher a couple of cm's out from its position. On starting the machine it began its wash cycle with no inlet/drain light on. My Miele is now working and I'm about to cancel the repair man. Can anyone tell me what got my dishwasher working again???

Your drain pipe was more than likely kinked/squashed behind unit.
