Fisher & Paykel Dishwasher DW920 Fault Code 29

[Randall679]

G’day,

I have a, F&P Nautilus DW920 that stopped dead in its tracks full of water and displaying ’29’ in the little digital display … I assume this is a fault code. Unplug, turn off, press and hold every button, climb every mountain … still displays 29 and triple beeps when I press any button. The red cycle light flashes continuously, as well.

Now, before I spend more than the 7 year old unit is worth on a repairman, can someone tell me what this code means?

I’m trying to be sustainable and not replace the car just because the ashtray is full.

Cheers,

29 IS NOT A FAULT CODE
Fault codes are normally F1 /F2 ETC
The 29 is probably the time remaining
Could be numerous causes for machine stopping
Most common fault can be to do with the door latch /door siwtch Latches have a tendency to break
Further investigation is needed

Hi-have had numerous probs with f and p dishwasher and the engineer who came out described a problem similar to yours. Apparently the buttons on the front of each drawer(when pressed for the right length of time in the right order!) perform many useful tricks.The one he used (apparently fixed a fault similar to your own) basically was a master reset. You hold down the lock button until it beeps and then you repeat this till it beeps again. et voila!
Maybe.
hope this helps.The software gets confused if a number of error codes build up-cured my problem of the touch panels stopping working.
