We have a Fisher and Paykel Excellence 7.5 SmartDrive 9. I think we lost wedding ring through it. Do these machines have a coin catcher in them somewhere?

Have a look under the machine where the tub hose goes to the pump
the catcher is in that hose
the tub hose will go in the top and the pump hose in the side so that any items drop to the bottom and are not put through the pump impeller

Testimonial: "Hi Bill, thanks for the reply. I see the outlet hose from the pump, but no 'tub hose' or inlet hose. instead the water inlet to the impeller comes through a moulded casing at the bottom of the tub. The moulding is very narrow so that I can't reach far with my fingers. I can't feel any place a catcher might be. Is it possible to reach in from the other end, from inside the tub?"

    you can try removing the agitator but I fear that the ring may be past the pump
    if you have the wash water going into a point in the washing ( laundry) tub then it may be in the "S" bend under that tub
    you can check with a F&P service agent to see if there is a strainer under the agitator that would hold the object in the machine before you pull anything apart

I have a Fisher and Paykel Smartdrive 9 washing machine that won't fill. It starts then stops and continues to do so, then stops altogether and beeps. Can anyone help??

The error code is displayed when its beeping.
I don't know the error code, so It can only be three things,
Out of balance switch,Lid magnetic reed switch,Or Rotor position sensor,Your error code would help me work out witch one of these are faulty. to work out your error code look at picture below.
Add up the lights that are on.

Fisher & paykel washing machine fault codes

I have a Fisher & Paykel GW609AU Smartdrive Excellence 6.5 Washing Machine that would start then stop then start then stop a few more times before eventually beeping.
I fixed it by bypassing(joined the white and yellow wire) the trip out switch which is located under the control module(one screw to remove).Now it Works.
