Had my head in a Miele dishwasher which is suffering an earth fault (10K resistance live to earth, trips the RCD straightaway, was previously emitting white smoke). Looking at the wiring diagram, my prime suspect is the interference suppressor or failing that the heater relay. (can't actually get at them to test)
I managed to find a parts list for a similar model on the net, so rang up Miele with the part numbers in hand for a quote...
Relay 51.52 inc VAT Suppressor 56.47 Next day postage 15.60
Ouch! I think I'll be buying from eBay or generics, for about a fiver each...
