Error with MW051-U

[chrisduryea1979]

Hi hope someone can help.

I live in Brisbane Aus. I have a F&P MW051-U
I have checked the forum and did the diagnostics and came up with the following code.

0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1
Long Short Rinse Final Spin
Wash Wash Rinse

I appears as though the drive trying to turn the drum but only turns all little each time.

Thanks in advance

The good old Out of Balance problem…….

1) Check bias spring is attatched to tub.
2) Check suspension is correctly attatched and free to move.
3) Check function of switch – it should be free to move easily and not be stiff, corroded or wet. Wiring can also deteriorate.

You’ll need to take the top deck off to check fully – two screws at the back.

I’ve had the same but it goes away – looks like I’ll have to do some maint.
I’ve see reference to different “phases” of F&P washers how do I know what mine is ?
Can I get a list of all the codes for this machine.
thanks john

Re: Error with MW051-U

If yours is an 051, it’s a phase 2.

No, I can’t publish the codes. F+P don’t mind if we answer your specific questions, but will get somewhat peeved if I put up all their copyright tech info. Sorry.

Check your OOB switch for corrosion and dodgy wiring – it’s a regular thing.
