Rust around the Fisher Paykel Drain Bellows
If it is surface rust, paint it with a rust neutraliser and preventative product. If the rust is deep and flaky, replace the part. If it is the outer drum, it is probably an uneconomical repair.
With top loaders, greasy stains are always from just below the central agitator where the clutch and gearbox are. They use a lot of water pump grease. Older machines have an enamelled outer drum and inner drum. Newer model have a plastic outer drum and a stainless steel inner drum.
Fisher Paykel GLW 15 can RPS failure cause Error 66 and error 240?
Yes, a failed RPS (Rotor Position Sensor) can cause Error 66 and Error 240 on Fisher Paykel washing machines. The RPS is responsible for detecting the position of the motor rotor, and if it fails, the machine may not be able to spin properly and can also cause issues with pressure sensing.
To fix this issue, you may need to replace the RPS sensor or check the wiring connections to ensure they are secure and not damaged. If the problem persists, it may be best to seek the assistance of a qualified technician to diagnose and repair the issue.
Fisher & Paykel Washing Machine won't move
Make sure all of the plumbing (drain and fill hoses) and the power cord are disconnected. You might discover that one or more of these is on a "tight leash" and needs to be reconfigured or replaced with something longer so the washer fits in its intended new location. Maybe the installer used rigid pipes instead of hoses.
Another possibility is that there's something sticky or snagged under the machine. There is no "lock into place" feature on any washer I've ever seen; there's no reason for it unless it's part of a vertical stack. Look under the machine with a bright light - if you don't see something crazy like a warped floorboard sticking up, try lifting the machine straight up or tilting it slightly to see if it will "unstick" from the floor. Do this for each side, or the back first, then the front.
I have a Fisher & Paykel Smart Drive 051 which is old
If your Fisher & Paykel washing machine is making a clunking noise and seems to be washing in the same direction, it may be due to the drive belt. The drive belt helps to rotate the drum of the washing machine and over time, it can become stretched or damaged. To fix this problem, you will need to replace the drive belt.
Fisher Paykel no hot water?
First turn the water off and remove the water inlet hoses and check the strainers in the connector on the machine. They can become clocked with limescale and debris.
If they are okay, you need a new water inlet solenoid valve.
