When i turn the power on for the unit, it just beeps rapidly 6-7 times in quick succession (beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep). there is no display led's lit up. I've tried different power points different leads. nothing. the unit was working fine just a few days ago when i did a few cycles with it.

SOURCE: Washing Machine stopped through cycle and now will not turn on

Check the wiring harness, connections, contacts, etc. Look for some corrosion and loose connections. Also, check the water inlet for anything that may cause a reduction in water flow.

Turn machine OFF on the front panel. Hold down the Water Temp Down button and press the POWER button. Release buttons. You are in Diagnostic mode.With your service sheet ,Diagnostic chart will explain where the error lights pattern and the path to your solution are.My advice is this....there is a known problem with the wire harness connectors,and the contact that is made at the point of connection.One at a time remove each connector starting at your main control board ,some where there is a loose connection.

What you describe is normal for the power on cycle. If if will not work after this, then you have a problem. If it will not turn on by pressing the power button, try one of the wash type buttons. If it responds to the power button or the wash type buttons and beeps with the start/pause button and the lid is closed, then the lid switch is faulty, if it does not beep and the lid is closed, then the button is faulty and can be replaced on it's own by anyone with some soldering ability.

Fisher & Paykel GW712. Fills with water but the wash cycle doesn't start - doesn't agitate.

It may be a failed control board, but a few things to try first.

the heating element has an issue

Fisher & Paykal MW512 turns on multiple beeps then turns off

This kind of problem is usually related to a faulty display module, or faulty motor control module (Computer isnide of control panel compartment)

Without spares to change and test with, you wont be able to diagnose 100%

Usually when there is a problem, a series of lights go solid on the control panel and the machine beeps to alert you to a problem and this is a fault code, but if nothing is showing at all, then I have to lean towards the display module underneath the touchpad. Especially considering it wont illuminate.

If it is a musical rippling sound & hot & cold lights are flashing that usually indicates it is not getting water quickly enough. You can open the lid while it is filling & look. If water is just trickling in and taps are fully open then replace the inlet valve with a new one.

Machine will not spin or drain water.

I have a problem with my MW512AU. Sometimes it drains after wash cycle, but sometimes it sticks when it goes to spin, doesn't get up to speed, water comes on for about 10 seconds and shuts off, and it tries to spin again. If I hit the wash progress switch it goes directly to final spin and works ok. I then have to run a 2nd wash cycle to rinse the clothes. I also noticed a buzzing sound when I turn on the power point, which lasts about 3 seconds before stopping. It will come back on every 3-4 minutes for 30 seconds. This is with the machine power switch off. It powers on normally.
