Re: Fisher & Paykel Smartdrive 708 Won’t wash
Installed the correct stator and machine started to fill in bursts then stoped. Replaced motor postion sensor with unit from other machine and all seems fine now. Have washed 1 load and it worked as it should. When going intod diagnostics still displays error code 10000011 which I think = 131 motor position sensor fault. Will see how it copes with more washes.
Thanks for the help
Re: Fisher & Paykel Smartdrive 708 Won’t wash
Have installed a stator from a dumped MW059AU which is a bit different. Measures 32ohms across terminal where the old one was 12ohms. Terminals are smaller and copper wire is smaller diameter. This stator has radial cracks in it as well (F&P need some better plastic). Machine runs fine but still posts error code 00001011. Have ordered the correct stator 426181P from F&P in Aust for a cost of $121.24 Au delivered. Hopefully this will solve the error code and machine will run for another 7 years.
Thanks for all the help. This is a great site.Re: Fisher & Paykel Smartdrive 708 Won’t wash
Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Found the problem. Stator has radial cracks in it allowing it to expand and hit the magnets in the rotor hence the squeaking sound. It also moves back and forth only stopped by plug in motor postion sensor. Is it worthwhile getting another stator? Is it possible motor controller board is US as well. Are stators expensive? Maybe time for another machine. Any recommendationsThanks for your help.

Opps,
Error code was written down left to right. From right to left it would be 11000001. Sorry
