Fisher Paykel Washer Mainboard Fault

Hello, I suspect from what I’ve read that the motherboard on my Smartdrive 053 is not well.

I’ve gotten into the diagnostic mode (I think, and ) and get a cycle of the following when I press the key

1. 0000 0000 with High and Low level lights on
2. 0100 0100 with Low level light on
and repeat…..

Is there any hope or should I look for another mainboard?

Dont press the advance key

Need level 3 fault code

Thanks for the diagnostics – we narrowed it down to the lid sensor in about 5 minutes.

Temporarily shorted it out and away it went.

Thanks again.

My Fisher & Paykel Smartdrive 085 turns on OK, all buttons seem to work to change settings, but when I press start/pause, nothing happens. Can’t wash, can’t rinse, can’t spin. The board has been replaced once before and since that’s such an expensive exercise, we’ll just buy a new machine if it needs replacing again.

I’ve looked inside and the tech sheet is not in there. Fisher & Paykel in Australia refused to send a tech sheet too. (Although I have read that in NZ they will send a service manual to consumers?)

I’ve run the diagnostic mode and get the following:

00000000
00000000
00000000
01000100
00110111
00000010
00000011
00011001
01000001
00000010
11111111
000000**
00100100
01001001
00010100

The ** above indicates where the last 2 LEDs alternate between 0 and 1 (when one becomes 0, the other becomes 1).

If anyone can either help me get hold of a tech sheet/service manual, or help me to interpret these codes, I would really appreciate it. I can be reached by email to ennio at bigpond dot net dot au.

Hi,

I have the same problem, what was the diagnosis?
Thanks

Level 3 is the current fault code indicating your is 00100100

This indicates your machine may be:
1/. siphoining
2/. leaking
or
3/.power module needs replacing.

Raise the outlet end of the drain hose to prevent siphoning.

Check for water on the floor to confirm leaking

If these don’t solve the problem then a new power module may be required
