Question about Fisher and Paykel GWL11 Top Load Washer

2 Answers

Spring under the lid came loose, I don't know where to hook it back up.

I have the F&P GWL11 and the spring under the top that pulls the tub towards the front left corner comes undone. Last time it was still under warranty and the repair guy said it was simple, so I didn't make him show me how to fix it. Now, no warranty and I don't see where the spring hooks up to. I don't know if it's missing a hook type piece because it just has a circl on the unattached side, so I looked for a hook on the tub or something and I don't see it. Thanks!

Spring attaches to the top end of the wire rod that the bowl is suspended by and a orange (or is it red) plastic clip on top of bowl.

The left front spring holding the wash tub has come loose
Hi just read your posting. Under the lid there are 2 plastic covers one on the left and one on the right toward the front of the machine.If you remove the covers with a screw driver there will be one screw under each cover.Unscrew these screws and now you can lift the hob up to see the suspension rods.Lift the hob gently and slowly.Hope this helps.Please reply for further help if needed.Good luck.

How do you remove inner tub to get to the outer tub of Fisher & Paykel gwl11
You need 2 people for this.. Unscrew plastic wingnut down the centre of the agitator.(2) undo 2 phillips head screws under little rubber covers just under lid at front top edge.(3)lift top of machine like a car bonnet,get someone to hold it up for you.(4)Unclip big round plastic ring on top of the bowl,you may find its attached with a spring at the front left hand corner,just lay the plastic ring over front of machine & let it hang.The bowl should just lift straight out.Be carefull,the outside of the metal bowl is like a cheese greater trust me! PS when you put it back together & you lower the top of the machine(make sure that little white plastic lever hanging down) the right hand rear go's outside the righthand rear of the tub NOT squashed on top.Its an out of balance lever & it needs to dangle outside of the bowl/tub right rear.GOOD LUCK!

Drum leaning forward, top apron came off WP Ultimate Care II
The spring you see hanging in the back is called the counterbalance spring, the long one as you described it. The purpose of this spring is to counterbalance the weight of the motor hanging in the front, where it is leaning. It is hooked into the back frame of the washer, have seen the hole wear through on other washers, it is a simple matter to drill another hole and hook the spring next to where it has wore through.

As to your top and the ears, would recommend pulling off the entire cabinet to look at it. This washer is front serviceable, you rotate the control panel up, a screw in each end cap holds it down or some concealed springs that are released by pushing in with a putty knife under the front bottom of each end cap.(there are two types) Under the control panel you will see two clips to release and the lid switch plug, then the whole cabinet assembly simply pulls off towards you.
There is a direct drive coupling between the transmission and motor that takes the place of a belt and may be ready for replacement, also has dogs in the dual agitator that can be serviced. There are descriptions of this on fixya, it is a fairly common washer design,
good luck.

Spring rusted off. How do I replace it?
Make sure that where the spring attaches to the bottom of the tub mount, is not rusted into also. If it's not replace the spring. Here is how.
Find where spring goes back to. Possession your self on the side where the spring Now from under the washer, pull the tub toward you (the place where the spring goes) Be ready to hook spring back up. If you cant get this to work, try laying the machine down so that the tub will fall toward the spring goes. This will mae it 100% easier to replace them.

The spring attacted to the drum has come undone. How do you replace it?
Hi Sleepy.
When you say "spring" are you talking about the small spring attached between the left-front shock rod and the small red tab on the tub rim, or are you talking about one of the tub support rods/shock absorbers? If it's the latter, it has probably broken and has to be replaced. What I usually see happen is that the rod pulls right out of the angular bracket that supports the rod. if the rod came undone it is very easy to re-install it, you hook the bottom round "bearing" onto the tub, lift the rod up and set the angled bracket back into the corner of the cabinet. if this angled bracket is still attached to the corner and you see a rod and spring, then you broke the shock rod. If this is the case, they are sold in sets of 4 and you can get them here:

Wont wash
Remove lid then control panel. Unhook all terminals, remove control board, then second "box" which is further away towards back of machine. Sensor is 'back/right," under this second box. Unhook connectors & remove wee sensor carefully. On the side of the sensor is a tiny plastic button the size of a pen top. This should move in & out freely. It is spring loaded. If it sticks replace it. Good luck on your mission.

Fisher Paykel GWL11 washer I have a GWL11 top load washer, eighteen years old. Has been very dependable but of late it doesn't want to go all the way into the high speed spin cycle and complete the wash process. Having started the final spin (red light is on) it locks the lid and begins to increase speed then about half way to full speed it slows down, comes to a stop, unlocks the lid and begins that process yet again and again. Is this a motor control board function or something else?
