How can i fix Miele Dishwasher G665?

My dishwasher Meile G665 is not taking in any water despite the inlet pipe being checked and the filter cleaned. There is water going to the pipe but it doesnt seem to be getting pumped into the machine.

Miele G665 Kitchen Appliances, Dishwashers Water Inlet Checked

I had a problem with my Miele G660 recently, and I had to replace the AquaStop part which comes with the hose and costs you a fortune (about 900 DKK or 120 Euro). Problem was a defect magnetic water inlet valve.

Hmmmm.
Quite an old machine-between 11 & 17 years old.
Start a programme. It should drain for 30 seconds. Then try to fill. At this point, the inlet valves should vibrate ( feel them ( the grey box attached to the water supply)). If they do, then wait till they stop & open the door. Is there water inside ? ( put your finger in & see ! ).
If the box doesn't vibrate then its a problem with the power to these valves.
If it does vibrate & no water goes into the machine then its a problem with the valves or an internal blockage.
If water does go into the machine, leave it on for 3 minutes, then see if it circulates the water for washing. If it doesn't then the circulation pump is seized.
Seems like such a simple question but not necessarily so.
Let me know
