Fisher Paykel Dishwasher Troubleshooting

Fisher and Paykel dishwasher troubleshooting problems may be linked to:

Fisher Paykel dishwasher drain problems – this can cause water leaking issues. The drain hose may have become disconnected from the waste pipe, or the water inlet hose isn’t properly connected. Excess water in the drawer could indicate the drain hoses are kinked or damaged.

Fisher Paykel dishwasher not starting – this could be related to issues with the power supply, power switches, fuses, or the circuit breaker. Any electrical faults need to be safely inspected by a qualified appliance repair technician. Other difficulties could lie with a drawer or the door being unable to close properly, a snag with the child-lock feature, or depressed buttons that won’t release.

Fisher Paykel dishwasher making noises – knocking or rattling sounds during the wash indicate that a spray arm is knocking against the dishes and needs to be repositioned. With some models continuous or intermittent beeping warn that a fault has occurred – a programme may be in pause mode – but if this continues you’ll need to get expert help to diagnose and fix any ongoing issues.

Fisher Paykel dishwasher motor issues – if the controller is unable to sense the motor rotating this could down to a number of reasons. A foreign object may have jammed the rotor, or there may be a wiring fault within the hall sensor or the controller. A defective electronic controller, PCB main filter, or motor stator winding will all need to be dealt with by an expert.

Fisher and Paykel dishwasher problem solving will often be determined by the model of your appliance. For instance, Fisher Paykel dishwasher DD603 problems may include an activated flood switch, motor problems, failed temperature sensor, faulty element, or electronics malfunction.

Refer to the fault codes above to identify the source of the problem – all of these faults can be identified and repaired by your local professionals.
