Re: Fisher & Paykel GW 708U – Wont Start
Is the wash cycle light blinking? is so it’s paused.
Also if you have bridged the connection and still no go the fault will be in the motor controller.Re: Fisher & Paykel error codes
First thing to check is the winding’s on the pump they should measure around 30?.
The motor controller module’s fuse will have gone open, that will need to be replaced also the TRIAC on the controller maybe damaged most likely shorted and will make the pump run continually.
Re: Fisher & Paykel error codes
I’m not shure on the model it will either be on the display module too tell look for a button by the lid hinge.
If it is not there will be a reed switch on the underside of the deck on the right hand side looking from the front.

I have read some of your posts helping people out and they are great.
I have a Pride5.5 Smart Drive 9 (MW059AU). Previously I have replaced the Out of Balance switch which was got us a couple more years out of the machine.
Now we get all the lights on when we turn it on like everything is fine. Just nothing happens when we try to wash.
We managed to get it to do a couple of loads after we first had the problem, but now it just won’t do anything again.
I’ve followed the instructions to get ‘Hold & Slow’ to show in diagnostic mode but no lights turn on. If I keep pushing speed after that then I get some lights, but nothing on ‘hold & slow’ lit.
I feel the problem is going to be something minor and easy to fix, just don’t know where to look. I’m quite certain its not the overbalance switch again.
Can you please help with some suggestions?
Thanks,
Noel (Australia)The problem will be the lid switch.

Re: F&P GW503 Stops Filling
Well the only thing i can think of is the cold temp is set high.
Method of Setting the Wash Temperature
1. Select the OPTION ADJUSTMENT MODE by pressing and holding the START/PAUSE button, then pressing the POWER button.2. Use WASH TEMPERATURE buttons and LEDs to select the temperature setting to be adjusted, i.e. Cold, Cold/Warm, Warm, Warm/Hot, Hot.
3. Use the ADVANCE button and WASH PROGRESS LEDs to increase or decrease the temperature. Each time the ADVANCE button is pressed, the
WASH PROGRESS LEDs will advance one position to the right. This
increases the temperature by approximately 1oC. When the spin LED is on
and the ADVANCE button is pressed, the spin LED will go off and the left
hand (long wash) LED will turn on. This is the coldest setting. The setting can
then be advanced through again to achieve the required temperature.4. Select the next temperature range to be changed with the WASH
TEMPERATURE button. Repeat Step 3. Each Temperature range can be
adjusted using this method.5. To return the machine to Normal operation, press the POWER button.
Have the wash temp set to cold.
On the wash lights you will want the most left one on.
push the power button when done.Re: F&P GW503 Stops Filling
By the sounds of it you have the machine set to warm and it is trying to mix the water to achieve the temperature but can’t due to the cold water been too warm or the hot been too cold.
if the cold light is flashing means no cold
if the hot light is flashing no hot water.or you could take a picture of the whole display panel before it detects a problem and after.
Re: F&P GW712 – beeping, no lights after module change
that is a wired problem maybe the display module is faulty.
Re: Fisher and Paykel GW603 Blowing Fuses
Those parts are FETS for the motor control and the 15v switch mode power supply and the 5 volt regulator for the 5 volt rail ant the triac for pump control and the break mosfet.
That metal thing that has the water go through it is a heat sink to stop the fets and voltage regulator and triac from over heating. It also has the break resistor it’s between the red and yellow wire the resistor is in the heatsink in a glass tube. there is also a temperature sensor attached that tells the computer the water temperature for filling as well as when washing and spinning if the heatsink gets to hot it will send a burst of cold water to cool it.
