My f&p top loader mw511 continously beeps and does not spin

When it beeps what is the error code? Look at the top row of lights and count from left to right.Tell us which of the 8 lights are on & which are off.

If you have just acquired it does it have warranty still. You can look the machine up online and/or otherwise contact the manufactrurer.

Try unplugging the machine for a few hours to rest the code on the board.

Error code 130 is rotor position sensor faulty or wiring to it.
sensors sell for $25 to $50 on Ebay.

Fault code 66 is pressure sensor is faulty
66. (01000001) Pressure Transducer Error [Ptx Frequency > 90 kHz]
Note: this supersedes Fault code 65 from V41 Motor controller code onwards.
The Motor Control module has received signals from the water level sensor (Ptx)
above normal frequency values.
Primary Source: Motor Control module
Action: Replace Motor Control module

It is giving out a fault code,
Of the 8 wash progress lights, tell me witch are on,
I will tell you the fault code and info on how to fix.

Hi - you may have somehow put the machine into data mode - its either that or the door lock itself has malfunctioned - the only other logical one is thw controller module.

I'm assuming its a Phase 6 - try this - press/hold wash temp & power button until u get 2 beeps & lights up - release buttons...

NOW IMPORTANT - be careful you are in memory system of the controller -

1. press start/pause to unlock/lock & toggle that lid locked lights - check default is off.
2. I think its either advance or regular to turn pump on/off.
3. try a few buttons see what happens - THEN

turn off at the wall & try it again, if it still doesn't work then we may have a more sinister problem which will require correct testing of the components.

This will require a thorough knowledge of how to interpret the test results, to nail the culprit.

Sorry cannot help further...

Hi just read your posting.Now on that wash progress line of lights there are 8 lights in total.Starting from the far right what lights are lit up?Is it the 2nd and 5th or the 4th and 8th--etc---?With this additional information I can work out the error code and advise you how to repair this fault.Please reply for further help.

The third and fourth lights from the left indicate a failed motor controller (error code 48) If this is the correct fault code you will have to replace the motor controller. However before that is done all the electrical components which can effect the controller must be checked as well...Best to call a tech...Good luck Nomess

Having the same problem. Any ideas at all? It's really frustrating.

mw511 fills with water but cylinder isnt spinnig and when it stops filling nothing happens. However sometimes it will go complete cycle ans a noise can be heard on spin cycle even though it is not spinning. As thoiugh the motor is not engaging with the cylinder
