Problems with my Panasonic NA-140VS4.

[lindajones]

Hello. I have a Panasonic NA-140VS4 that was 5 years old and out of warranty 2 days ago and as my luck would have it started playing up almost immediately.

The first issue is an F73 error code on the steam cycle about half way though the program. The second issue is on the last rinse of any program for approximately 3 minutes the machine will fill and empty the water at the same time.

Before I go throwing money at this washer can anyone shed some light on these problems and maybe the approximate cost of fixing the machine please..

Thanks Linda.

Thre is no F73 listed but H73 is an error with the steam pump unit, whatever that is but no explanation is given on what may cause it only to switch off to clear it.

Yes sorry, H73. Old eyes!

Do we know what a steam pump unit costs? I’ve had no luck actually finding the part. Any thoughts on the filling and emptying at the same time. Is that likely to be linked to the steam pump?

Steam pump is part number AXW8C-8CV0 and listed at about £45 but where it is in there I’ve no idea. The diagram isn’t all that great.

But do bear in mind what’s explained here:

Although it indicates that’s the problem area it is not definitive that this is the problem component.
