WAS THERE A RECALL ON THE FISHER & PAYKEL GWL 11 WASHER ,, DUE TO PUMP CAUSING SHORTAGE AND DAMAGE TO CONTROL MODULAR
SOURCE: GWL-11 Fisher Paykel wont turn on and water on the floor
Look at my issue "eco smart won't drain, smells hot". Mine is top load.
If you see puddle on floor and eventually won't run at all and smell electric burn motor, it could be same issue I had.
Unplug washer. Tip washer back. If you see water dripping through the black motor area, you need to remove the black motor and the white plastic unit above it. Look for a white plastic clip that is attached to bottom of washing machine. Push that clip with your finger and twist the whole plastic unit/black motor. It all comes off in one piece.
Look on side of this unit and you will see 120V or 240V. Mine is GWL10US and is older model. Was told by repairman that new units use 120V. That is what you need to order. It comes as one piece and you just twist it back on. I had done most of this. Repairman came and 5 seconds cost me $65.

ok You have a blown Motor controller module. There could also be another fault that caused this to blow up. eg a faulty drain pump, lid lock or Diverter valve, inlet valve. you'd need to use a ohm meter to test all these. cheers

There is a code book inside the top of the washer where the electronics are.

Try unplugging the washer to reboot the curciut board. Leave unplugged for 5 min. Then replug and select only one setting. Multiple setting selected in a short period on time will confuse the little brain in the board. Reboot to fix. Be patient!
SOURCE: no power to fisher paykel washer. Replaced pump
PUMP IS ALSO A HEAT SINK FOR THE MOTOR CONTOLLER.
YOU MAY NEED A NEW BOARD
