Machine wont start to fill with water.
In diagnostic mode with Spin Speed Hold & Slow LEDS lit I get error code 0000 1011.
Also in diagnostic mode using Wash Temp Up & Down, hot & cold solenoids activate and water enters the bowl but only for a second. Also using Regular button drain pump works for only a second or two, is this normal for diagnostic mode?
Re: Fisher & Paykel GW608U won’t start cycle
Bit of an odd one this – your code suggests a pressure sensor fault. With the tub empty, disconnect air hose to level switch and blow through to ensure that it is clear. If the fault does not clear, the fault probably lies on the motor control board.
It is unclear from the tech manuals how long the valves and pump should run for in the diagnostic mode.
Power off if removing panels or covers.

Thanks for the quick reply Penguin45.
I could blow air through the clear plastic tube attached to the motor control board, it seems to be clear, it’s hard to tell being such a small diameter tube and not knowing what’s on the other end of it.
When I went back into diagnostic mode the water solenoids and drain pump are now operating normally, ie not just for 1-2 secs, but the cycle still doesn’t start. I’m hoping this isn’t getting to odd for you.
Below is a complete readout in diagnostic mode, just in case it can give some clues.

I would agree with my tuxedoed friend, price a new motor controller and find out if they will take it back if it doesn’t fix the problem. 8)

On the blue green yellow and grey modules the water valves stay on as long as you keep the buttons pressed pump you switch on and off with one press
Allways check the resistance of pump motor and inlet valves before replaceing the Motor module double check resistance 16 ohm on the cold inlet valve and look for any rust on solinoid
Check also for any water leaks from the bearings
This one does sound like a module BUT ONLY if code comes up with the presure tube disconected and 10 sec after you turn it on 99.9{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}
