How to start the Miele W4802 when start light does not flash after close the door?
I tried power cycle (unplug for several mins), clean up the drain filter but still not work.
Even the "Start" light does not flash, the "Child Lock" light flash when I press the "Start" button. I tried to disable the "Child Lock" but it comes back again when I press the "Start" button.

Mine had a low drone when the power was on and the door was closed as if it was mid-cycle. Start/Stop would let you select different cycles but they would all result in the Drain/Inlet light flashing after a minute and the drone continuing.
I put 3L of water in it and power cycled - it drained that without issue. The water inlet wasn't blocked so I removed the base plate to find a tiny amount of water - possibly from tipping it up?
Anyway, I found the polystyrene float and mcroswitch, cleaned them reinstalled. No more droning noise and everything seems to be fine now. I will check for water in a couple of days just in case there was a leak. It does appear that the float/switch put it in a flood/drain mode. I've also extended the feet slightly in case the uneven floor accentuated the issue as the float is very close to the base pan
So sorry but the partsdirect site for sears locked down my computer. Check where the drain hose connects to your pump and see if there is a small device the hose connects to that has 2 wires going to it. If it does unplug the wires, turn power off, wait 1 minute and turn power back on and see if it works with this disconnected. If it does you will need to replace this. It is like a sensor that says there is too much debris. Stupid part that was totally unnecessary in the first place. Sorry about the inconvenience.
try doing button setting change from "Hi-Temp Wash - Normal - Hi-Temp Wash - Normal" sequence of button selections.
This must occur within 6 seconds and initiates an internal diagnosis of the machine. The process runs for about 19 min. and shuts off During the process several LED's light up and several funtions start and stop. If the machine has no broken systems, you should be able to open the
door add some soap and the usual dirty dishes and carry on with normal
operation.
this is the method to reset the machine. Most likely is that there were suds in the last cycle or the door doesn't close smoothly.
If the clean light flashes 7 times, pauses, then repeats...
When
the dishwasher doesn't sense a water temperature increase, it will
stop working and lock the functions (clean light flashes 7 times, all
buttons are non responsive). It does this as a safety in case the
element is broken and feeding electrical current into the water.
To resolve this you will have to reset the console. Do this by closing the door and press these buttons in sequence...
...all
the lights will turn on briefly and the machine will start a diagnostic
cycle. You can press cancel or let the diagnostic cyle finish (1-2
minutes). You should now be able to run the dishwasher as normal.
If
the issue returns, you could have a problem with the heating circuit
(ie. element, thermostat or wiring). It rarely happens but it could
also be the door switch not engaging properly when the door is closed
(slightly bend the door latch down making sure it doesn't hit the door
when you close it).
I had the same problem on my Kenmore Electric Range. Door would not unlock. Tried pressing "Off" for multiple seconds, but still would not unlock. No error codes. Clock was displaying normally. Finally decided to try running it thru the self cleaning operation to get it to cycle thru locking and unlocking the door. When I started self clean, the door automatically went thru the auto lock and "locked" appeared in the display. I then hit "Off" to clear it and stop the cleaning cycle. The door then unlocked as normal!
