Fisher Paykel washer pump power issue


Recommended Posts

"Dan, it's broke again"

my GWL11 washer will not power up. I disconnected the pump because it was leaking around the gasket.When I reconnected it the machine will not power up. Could I have damaged something by disconnecting or what? Will I need to replace pump to find out?

The drain pump acts as a balance resister through the motor controller. Nominal resistance through the pump is about 7.5 --8.5 ohms. If the resistance through the pump drops to about 5--6 ohms, it will take out the controller. You'll need a new pump and controller. Be sure to install the 2.50 amp slo blo fuse. To prevent the damaged pump from taking the controller out again.

Invest in a good quality DVM.
