How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the washer is unplugged before opening any panels. Do not bypass safety fuses.
- Check outlet and breaker: Test the outlet with another device and reset the circuit breaker or replace fuses if tripped.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or loose connections at the strain relief. Replace if damaged.
- Access control board: Remove the top or rear panel to reach the main PCB. Check for an onboard fuse; test it with a multimeter and replace only with the same rating if blown.
- Look for board damage: Burnt areas or bulging capacitors indicate a failed board. Replace the Fisher & Paykel main control module if damaged.
