Error code 40
40. (00101000) Inner Basket Disengage Fault
While carrying out a basket check, the Motor Control Module has found that the basket is
not engaged even though the pressure sensor indicates that the tub is empty. The Motor
Control Module continues to check for 2 minutes, after which time it displays this fault. The
first two areas to check are the clutch and the pressure tube. If these two appear correct,
then the fault could be in the pressure sensor in the Motor Control Module.
Primary Source: Mechanical.
Action: 1) Check that there are no clothes or other foreign objects preventing
the clutch from re-engaging. Excessive suds can stop the basket
rotating.
2) If the machine is empty of water, carry out a clutch disassembly
procedure (Refer to section8.14) and check the spline drive.
3) Next check that the pressure tube has not come off and that it is
not kinked.
Secondary Source: Motor Control Module.
Action: Replace Motor Control Module.

8.14 Removal of Clutch Mechanism (Spline Drive / Spline
Driven)
(a) Follow the procedure for removal of Inner
Basket. (Refer to Section 8.13).
(b) Remove the 3 screws securing the spline
driven to the inner basket.
Reassembly:
Refit in the reverse manner. Ensure that the
screws are tightened sufficiently with out over
tightening.

F4 is a fault code telling the controller that the water is not heating up. This can be caused by either a faulty heater plate, a bad connection between the plate and controller, or the controller itself. If you wish to fix this yourself, changing the heater plate is a fairly involved repair and should be done by someone with a high degree of mechanical ability.

SOURCE: fisher paykel GW 11, no power to panel.

You will have to check the power from power supply to relay to control panel. You can check for voltage with multi-tester or voltmeter

Hi just read your posting.The fault on your machine is called Single Rotor Position Sensor Error.The rotor sensor is attached to your motor which is located underneath the machine.Now the Error Code will come up on your machine because 1--The wiring to the Rotor Sensor is faulty. 2-- The rotor sensor itself is faulty or 3--- The motor controller, 'which is located under the top panel is faulty.Unfortunately to test the rotor sensor you need an RPS tester .This device will also check the wiring to the rotor sensor.If you have an electrical test meter I can guide you throe the testing of the wires to the rotor sensor but without the RPS tester you cant accurately test the rotor sensor.Some service techs I know just change the rotor sensor to see if that rectifies the fault but in your case you dont have a rotor sensor so even if you do purchase one and change it, the fault could be your Motor Controller.My best advice to you would be to borrow an electrical test meter if you do not have one and reply back and I can help you eliminate the Wiring as the cause of the fault,and then contact a service tech to find out if the fault is with the Rotor Sensor or the Motor Controller.But if the fault is with the wiring then I can guide you throe step by step to repair it.I hope this helps and please reply on how you got on or if you need further assistance.Good luck.

Is it possible to reduce the washing time on Fisher & Paykel 10kg washsmart machine? The quickest wash is 35 mins.

NO
the wash time is set in the program board and that time is what the manufacturers consider necessary for a clean wash

Fisher Paykel washing machine Smartdrive 703 Advance, Power and Start buttons are non responsive when pushed. Is there a part that can fix this. Does the control panel have to be replaced?

Fisher & Paykel Smart Drive beeps and stops during rinse cycle. If I hit pause and wait and restart it eventually continues. It seems like it has problems detecting water level.

My Fisher & Paykel washing machine continually stops and beeps on spin cycle GW703. Move clothes around and continue, goes for a while and stops again, seems it is sensing it is unbalanced.

There should be a tech sheet located underneath the control panel that has a fault code matrix. Compare the lights to what you see on the sheet, and read the details.
