Fisher & Paykel – gw708U won’t fill with water

[russ1001]

Hi all,

My Fisher & Paykel switches on – all settings seem functional – but when I click start nothing happens. Nothing at all. I’ve got thru all the diagnostics and here are the codes, starting with ALL the spin speed lights on:

00010111
01001001
00100100
00000100 – alternating with 00000011
11111111
00001011
10001001
00011001 – last LED flashing
00011111
00001011
01110111

If anyone has the diagnostics sheet handy – please email to:
seattlecrew2004 @ yahoo.com.au.

Many thanks…

A right hatful. As far as I can work out you have a problem with the water level control system and possibly with the control board. Can’t really be more specific I’m afraid.

Time for pro help perhaps?

Please post only the light sequence which relates to the hold and spin lights, it make our job so much easier 😀

could be the lid sensor we need the spin and hold ;ights plus the next one to check the lid switch If you test the balance switch you know your in the right area of test lights

noticed that the lid switch wasn’t changing any of the lights as I open and closed the lid.. so I’ve temporarily shorted the wires going to the switch.. all working fine now!

thanks for the help!
