Fisher Paykel EcoSmart GWL15 Logo
Posted on May 23, 2008

Fisher Paykel ecosmart purchased 3-4 years ago.

I have a Fisher Paykel top load ecosmart clothes washer. I have had this for 3-4 years. It has always worked well in the past till recently. We use this for 7-10 loads per week. About 4-5 weeks ago the machine started pausing on the third of five washing cycles. When this happened, we would simply push the start button and the machine would start back up. The last week, we have had to do this three or four times to do this. Sometimes we would have to advance the wash cycle to the rinse cycle to make this start. This evening the only way that we can get this to run is to advance it. Is this a control board issue? Is this something that could be purchased and replaced in home? What are the approximate cost? Please email me at [email protected]

Thanks,

Randall Young

I too am having this problem.  I am checking out if anyone has a solution.  Somewhere someone said to change the "Fill switch"  I don't know what that is or where it is.  Does this help?  If you have found anything let me know. [email protected]

Hi
In my opinion
This would be the water level sensor as the water should not get that high were it goes over the top the sensor should cut in and shut the water off at the level you set.
The problem can create more and can be dangerous as water and electricity not good best get it looked at.
