Re: fisher and paykel 051 wont start

So I’d need to source possibly a new LID switch, and balance switch (not that I know which on that is yet), and solder them onto the old PCB?
Is there an easy way to test the existing ones eg with a multi-meter?

Thanks for the info, a new valve has done the trick.

Same model I think, smart drive 051, top-loader. It’s about 10 years old now I think.

Re: F&P MW051-U (Australia): Water trickling on warm/hot

Looks like I’ve got a similar problem, but it’s the frequently used Cold that doesn’t work. Just to get it going, I’ve reversed the power feeds to hot/cold solenoids.

So how do I get the cold solenoid out? I can see the white plastic retainers but can’t seem to pry the out of the casing.

Any suggestions on where to get a replacement (Canberra, Australia)? If it’s easier/cheaper, I could just get the entire section containing both soleniods & water intakes.
