cannot repair replace only

It does sound as if there maybe something in the filter, although you say it occurs even when switched off. If you switch off at the power point does it still occur?

this usually happens when the load is one sided for a short time if the rubber has not split then you need to take a 5mm steel bar with one end turned at 1 inch to 90 % so you can push or pull it back to the hook or angled piece of bracket eric

The pump is blocked or faulty

Do you mean fault code 245

the drain pump impeller is seized; you just need to turn it a bit and will work just fine afterwards.

Here is the fault code guide for Fisher Paykel.

Possible this is faiIure of the drain pump and is the most problematic fault in a washing machine. In all occasions it is important that your observation is most important and so is vital to the identification /rectification and solution. If you have noticed that water has leaked then as the drain hose pump/valve and fittings are located on the underside of the machine it is important that you look for possible leaks here. In some cases the drain hose would be clogged at the drain end to outlet of the house and so there will be back flushing resulting in overflow to the outside. Also the drain pump/valve can be clogged.Check the voltage to the pump from the controller unit , is not this can be faulty.

Now remove the drain hose clamps and remove the drain pump/valve, clean the drain pump/valve, use back flushing to clear off all dirt. Now test using power to see if this works and can be simulated. When refitting, the hose must be tightened properly. If the pump/valve does not work even with power then it must be replaced. If there is intermittent power to the drain valve/pump then the program controller unit is a suspect.

Finally the washer must be placed with a tilt- use a spirit level- so that all water will drain to the outlet port and thereby there is no residual water remaining.

Thank You for using fixya

First thing is to check the simplest thing. Do you have power to the outlet? Second, do you have a volt meter? If so check to see if you are getting power to the panel. If you are getting power to the panel, then you have to further diagnose. Check your breakers inside the electrical panel as well.

Hi just read your posting.When you say 'It stops completely" does that mean the machine turns off with no lights or display on the top panel?Or when it stops completely the machine beeps and a series of lights light up or an error code appears in your display if you have the display model?Please reply with additional information on the questions and I am sure I can help you rectify this problem
