    This is a little bit after the fact but I just want to say thanks to Alexa for his help with diagnosing my Fisher & Paykel 701. After being directed to the problem, was able to repair my rotor position sensor (error code 130) by bypassing a section of burnt out track and soldering in a new feed wire to the micro Hall effect sensor.

    Ian Solder another feed
    wire this time to the centre pin and off course so far so good. Looks
    very rough and absolutely cost a lot more in more time than simply
    replacing a $41 component. However, a very nice feeling by way of
    accomplishment.

    Just in passing I now have a better understanding of the Hall effect and
    the use of micro sensors.

    I read that the motors are also desirable as wind turbines so had a bit
    of a play manually spinning the motor and measuring the voltage generated.
