Miele Dishwasher Error Code End/Start-Stop/Top Solo flashing simultaneously

When the End, Start/Stop, and Top Solo indicators flash simultaneously on a Miele dishwasher, the control system has detected a technical fault at the conclusion of a wash program. This signaling pattern is distinct from single-indicator warnings and is reserved for internal malfunctions that the dishwasher's electronics have flagged but cannot self-diagnose further without intervention. The fault is logged at program end, meaning the machine completed or attempted to complete its cycle before the error became visible to the user.

The root cause of this combined flashing pattern typically lies within the control electronics, the communication between the main control board and secondary modules, or a sensor that returned an out-of-range reading during the final stages of the cycle. Because the error is non-specific by design, it can reflect a range of underlying issues including failed program execution, a corrupted cycle sequence, or a transient electrical anomaly that disrupted normal operation. Miele's diagnostic approach treats this condition as requiring either a successful soft reset or escalation to a qualified technician.

The recommended first step is a power cycle: press Start/Stop, switch the machine off, wait several seconds to allow capacitors to discharge and the control board to reset fully, then power back on, select a new program, and press Start/Stop again. If the three indicators flash again after this reset attempt, the fault is persistent and requires Miele Technical Service for further diagnosis. Attempting to run repeated cycles without resolving the underlying issue is not advised, as it will not clear a hardware-level fault.
