What Self test
actually means.
If you suspect a MasterCool wine column is not working properly, Miele suggests running a self test from settings mode. Any problem found is shown in the display; the unit briefly switches off and on, then shows Self test completed. Miele asks owners to pass the messages on to service.

What to do when Self test shows on the wine coolerKind of codeControl board and display
The electronics that read the sensors and switch the cooling, the fans and the lights have reported a problem with themselves or lost touch with the display. A loose ribbon cable, moisture that reached the touch strip or a brief power surge is checked before a board is condemned. Boards and displays are usually specific to one model, so the number on the label matters here more than anywhere.
