Miele Washing Machine Error Code F35

• Washing machine displays F35 error code on the control panel
• Water remains pooled inside the drum after the cycle completes
• Cycle stops prematurely and will not advance to spin phase
• Unusual noises coming from the drain pump area
• Clothes remain wet and sudsy after the cycle ends
• Error code appears intermittently or consistently during drain cycles
• Washing machine may emit a buzzing or humming sound from the pump

• Drain hose is kinked, pinched, or compressed against the wall or behind the washer
• Drain hose connection is loose at the washer outlet or household drain
• Drain pump impeller is blocked by lint, fabric fibers, or foreign objects
• Internal drain filter or lint trap is clogged with debris
• Household drain line is backed up or clogged
• Water supply pressure is too low affecting pump operation
• Drain pump motor has failed or is not functioning properly
• Control board drainage sensor is malfunctioning or misreading water levels
• 120V electrical supply to drain pump is interrupted or insufficient

• Check your home's circuit breaker panel and ensure the breaker serving the washer is in the ON position; reset it by switching OFF for 30 seconds then back ON
• Inspect the entire drain hose from the back of the washer to the drain outlet for kinks, bends, or compression; straighten any kinked sections
• Verify the drain hose is not inserted too far into the standpipe or household drain, which can create a siphon; the hose should sit 4-6 inches above the drain opening
• Check that the drain hose is securely connected to both the washer outlet and the household drain; tighten any loose hose clamps
• Remove and inspect the accessible drain filter (if your model has a cleanout port near the bottom front) for lint and debris buildup; clean thoroughly
• Ensure your household drain line is not clogged by running water from a sink or tub; if slow draining occurs, contact a plumber
• Verify the washer is not overloaded; remove excess laundry and retry the cycle with a smaller load
• Confirm the washer door is fully closed and the door latch clicks securely into place
• Power reset the washer by turning off the circuit breaker for 60 seconds, then turning it back ON; run a test cycle to see if the error clears
• Check that both hot and cold water supply valves behind the washer are fully open, as low water pressure can affect drain pump function
