Awesome I watched your video, pulled it apart, found surface corrosion on the sensor board, gave it a clean with an alcohol pad and cotton bud, put it back together and it's all go again. Our machine is over 20 years old and we were looking at prices for a new one, decided it wouldn't hurt to try fixing the old one and started looking for how. I would have been lost as to where to look without this video of yours, thank you very much.👍
4 years later, similar style of F&P washing machine but different model, and your directions for the Rotor Sensor replacement were spot on! Got the part of eBay for $34 and replaced following your instructions. Washing machine now running error free again. Mate, you're a legend!
Legend!!! Followed your video and it worked a treat. Mine only needed a clean not a whole new sensor. Very helpful, you saved me hundreds and made me look like a competent handy man in front of the missus.
@@lisahudson7845 I did the same as Toby here...just scraped the blueish scale off with a flat head screwdriver and got in there with a bit of sandpaper.
Hey man! Greetings from 10,500 miles away in Alton Bay, New Hampshire, USA. When you made this video you probably thought you might help someone fix their washer. I'll bet you didn't know you would be easing the suffering of a cancer patient, my beautiful wife, Sue. She cried when the washer broke because little things really upset people when they have a cancer diagnosis and also she was worried about the cost of buying a new washer. Thanks to you for taking the time to put this video out there. I just installed the part (had to wait a bit for it to get to NH from Australia) and the machine is running sweet as I write this! You didn't just help me fix the washer, you helped a family ease some of the stress and saddness in their life. THANK YOU so very much. Peace and good health to you and your family! Brian Quinn, Alton Bay, NH
Wow, thanks for you're comment Brian, that means a lot. Just make sure there are no leaks or moisture under there for continued sweet running. I wish Sue and yourself the best of luck! Thanks again!
2020 and this tip just saved me $300. i just had to buy a $27 circuit board off ebay, you probably dont need to buy the whole harness and circuit board. note: my sensors on the old circuit board looked perfectly fine, but the fault is definitely there. as soon as i installed the new one and did her back up, BINGO. no more error, works fine. cheers, mate
The correct connection for the red blue yellow stator wires are marked on the stator if you look closely. Also, if you have a multi meter you can check the RPS board it should be 220 ohms between the Hall effect outputs and the corressponding connector on the board, also the dc supply and ground should be easily traceable to each hall effect sensor from the same coonector. Thanks mate for taking the time to do this video it really has helped a lot of people. You look like you could possibly be a Kiwi, but I dont care I think you are a good bloke ;)
Thank you so much for this! For someone who would never normally attempt a washing machine fix, I was pretty stoked to firstly diagnose the problem and then (with my partner's help) actually fix it. Saved me a probably pretty large repair bill too (got the sensor circuit thingy online for around $40). Am happily listening to the hum of my washing machine right now. Cheers!
Yes thank you Jesse. I checked the code, found the fault, which was a corroding sensor connection near the rotor. All it needed was a scrape with a blade.
Thanks Jesse for giving me the oil on how to fix my washing machine with the 130 error code. It worked and you saved me lots of money - I could have got a tech round to fix it and the call out fee would have been $120+ and the fix would have been at least $90 for the part and a few hundred for the time. I owe you a cold beer on a hot day; maybe two. As for the comments (see below) about your video re the "usual minded person" and their ability to "do the research" on Google to find the answer......I would like to point T astyboi towards any peer reviewed scientific journal. All biological peer reviewed experiments in journals have Materials and Methods sections that tell you what was used and how it was completed. Possibly T astyboi could start with Science or Nature Journals as they are the top journals to read - nuff said !!
Mate you are a legend - I followed your instructions and found that one of the tiny contacts was corroded. I put my x10 glasses on and cleaned the contact, put it back together and - IT WORKS. Thank you so much for the video. By the way, my model is slightly later but all the points are the same.
A BIG thank you to you for this video. I thought I was up for a new washing machine today, but eventually found your video tutorial. I had exactly the same issue, the sensor board had a corroded circuit track which I solder bridged with wire. Tested OK with multimeter, put the machine back together and I am now doing a load of washing as I type. Cheers!
Thanks Jesse, you're a champion! I had a different FP model but the principle was the same. Found one pin a little corroded (but too not much) and that was the problem. I've had the machine for 15 years now so i thought the end had finally come; but you've given it another life. My wife was disappointed as she thought she was getting a new washing machine:):)🤣😀🤣🤣🤣 Many thanks!!
Total gratitude to you brother for sharing your knowledge and experience with this issue. My washing machine is now working and i only had to clean the contacts of the rotor sensor as slightly eroded. You are a legend and have made my day! Thankyou
Thanks greatly. Amazingly my sensor is fine, instead my machine needs a new stator. The Darwin climate is very cruel to plastics. Rotating the tub felt clicky, matched the noise it made. Taking my stator out, lots of broken plastic pieces on top of it. Ordering a new stator now. Thanks again.
Hey Jesse, thanks heaps mate, worked a treat. Great video, well explained. With almost 20 comments you have saved people easily over $2000 ($60 per part, say $40 labour x 20). And that is just counting those who actually left a comment. Good karma coming your way...
The biggest thank you for your video, I fixed my washing machine, I can’t even believe I fixed it, although my machine was a little different, with your video, and clear instructions, I ordered the part online and fixed my washing machine, I am be on relived, thank you so much
What an awesome video mate. I just fixed my washing machine with the same process. I didn't buy a new sensor, I just thoroughly rubbed cooking oil over the water damaged sensor and rotor coils along with your comprehensive video and it goes good as gold. I can't believe it. I owe you a bottle whiskey for your excellent advice.
This video saved my washing machine and saved me a lot of money, thank you! Just a heads up for people looking for this part, you can get the circuit board without the plastic frame and it'll cost you about 40 NZD on ebay, you just have to take a little care in clipping the old one out and the new one in it's place. The whole new part shown in this video costs about 100 NZD but if the white plastic piece is not broken then its much cheaper to get the circuit board alone. Also, make sure the everything is screwed back in nice and secure to finish, the first time I tried there was a loud squeezing/rubbing sound from the rotary sensor/motor. After taking it off and putting back on properly, it worked sweet as a nut.
Thank you my kiwi bro! Same error code on a slightly different model (92206-A / WA65T60M) - the RPS is somewhat different (now potted in a rubbery compound to protect the circuit board), but the small sliver of exposed PCB for the connector had visible corrosion. Combination of careful scraping and isopropyl alcohol, reassembled everything, and it's now happily washing my towels.
Thanks Jesse! Mine's a slightly different model but same code and same interior - the connecting terminals to the RPS had slight corrosion - cleaned up and machine working again. All took 20 minutes - Cheers!
i was ready to buy a new washer till i watched your video, thank you very much i have fixed my washer ,it had the same problem which was corrosion on the rotor contacts and also a break in the circuit board . i soldered the break cleaned the contacts and off she goes .
Thanks Jesse Clearly explained. Repaired my FP too Found a break in the hall sensor board and repaired it. Spayed it with a clear paint to seal it. Back in action in less than an hour Awesome
Thanks mate your video saved me the price of a dishwasher. It just needed cleaning the connection. I put some grease on it to prevent it from happening again.
Jesse you're a leg-end my friend. Gave all the connections you mentioned a bit of a scrape, blew the old bits of blueish scale away and Robert is your Father's Bro, bro.
Thank you very much for this informative video! This worked for me today on my Intuitive eco model: IW712 with fault code 130. Paid NZD$120 for the part as I needed it in a hurry. Turns out we had this same repair done 3 years ago - the part still looked brand new with no corrosion. So I guess they don't last long.
Thanks mate great video easy to understand and well explained viewed your video pulled apart as you explained ordered part online 1 week later very happy wife and I'm a legend. Thanks cheers Paul
Great tips Jesse, fixed my machine after reading this. Please note though, there are two different rotor sensors, initially I ordered the wrong part. It's an idea to photo the sensor when ordering the replacement.
Just wanted to thank you for a clear and helpful video. Had the same problem with an identical model, I managed to fix it by cleaning the corroded connector points.
Hey guys, If you have this error, it may not necessarily be the RPS... *Please only try this if you have some clues about electrical stuff, don't want to cause a short and burn yer house down* I had an error code 130, and tried replacing the RPS, motor controller board, and the wire harness which connects the two. However the motor just would not turn (cheers anyway though Jesse). Finally, I found that the issue was that one of the spade terminals wasn't making a good contact with its respective motor winding (see here for diagram: drive.google.com/file/d/13_0npBQ_QXHBAY3vQeqdfT08_nKJlBIH/view?usp=sharing). Once I cleaned that contact up a bit (scraped enamel off the wire a bit more, sanded the terminal a bit) it worked again like new. *Be very careful to ensure the washing machine is disconnected from the power when you're servicing the motor*
Just a point you need to note. Sorry if you did and I didn't watch it. (raced through the video,) you need to know why there was water damage. Most common reason would be because of water seal and bearing failure as well. There shouldn't be any water getting under there.
Worked perfectly! Had the same error code and symptoms as you, disassembled as shown - The position sensor I had was a fully enclosed circuit board in a plastic casing, however the connect part which had 4 pads had obvious corrosion between the pads. Cleaned that up with nail polish remover, reassembled and she's good to go!
Thanks for the great video, helped me fix the mother-in-law's GW711 machine! Got the replacement RPS sensor on ebay for AUD $27...F&P one was 4 times the price!
Thanks for positing this in good kiwi style, Jesse. This this the second time I've had to refer to it and both times this has been an invaluable reference. The first time a rat chewed through the wire cluster to the RPS and this time the RPS itself had turned up its toes as in your case - quite a pricey item, though.
Thanks Jesse for a brilliant video. I found what the error code meant first via google, then watched your video to find out where the sensor was, and how to fix it. That saved me hours of time. I am a technical person, who can diagnose electrical equipment myself, but why waste the time when I have better things to do. I didnt have to watch all the video, others may choose to do so, that is the beauty of You Tube. So to T astyboi, do it yourself, and dont bother with You Tube (and negative comments) In my case, the black wire leading to the sensor had perished so much that it broke. Looks like built in deterioration that will eventually mean either a wiring loom or full machine replacement .
my washing machine has just presented the same error. I've just stumbled across your video.. Thanks for sharing. I'm now going to have a crack at fixing it lol.
Thanks for this. My machine started up with this but is only intermittent. Glad someone made a video on it. You explained everything very well. Hopefully I dont have to replace the part though just forked out for a replacement inlet valve from the spare parts for f&p a month or 2 ago.
Very good video, well done on the delicate sensor, they can break easily (the plastic surround). The rotor bolts into a alloy shaft about 1 cm long of alloy (It surrounds the shaft covered in plastic for about 10 cm), good to point out not to over tighten, alloy can be stripped. I use the rotor and stator like many for generators, another use for your machine if it brakes down again :)
Thanks for the vid. I have different model washer than you with the same basic setup. A couple things i did that i think helped mine; cleaned the magnets for the stator and motor, hit my contacts (that also looked extremely clean) for the position sensor with a few swipes of 1000 grit sandpaper, and hand tightened that big nut on the shaft accessible after the stator is removed. My model has a water proof dielectric gel on some of the sensor so the harness contacts were the only part accessible by water but nothing looked corroded. The magnets on the stator and motor looked like they had a few instances of touching so hopefully with the cleaning and the tightened nut there will be less wobble and less contact. That problem is now gone. This model hates being unplugged or disconnected from power for some reason though, so i have a new problem that i have had to fix before but your video helped with the important one lol. Thanks. -peace
thanks So much Jesse for the tutorial it saved me hundreds. All I had to do was get some sand paper and clean up the points on the sensor. thanks again mate. I have a happy wife now :)
Also meant to mention that I didn't have to buy a spare part. There was a bit of corrosion on the circuit board so I just sprayed it with "electrical clean and lube" and cleaned it with cotton buds. Also did the plug where it connects to the board. Let it dry and hey presto. All fixed for now. You can buy electrical lube from www.jaycar.com.au/Service-Aids/Chemical-Aids/Aerosols/Contact-Cleaner-Lubricant-Spray-Can/p/NA1012
Hi mate, thanks so much for posting this video. This resolved my issue. In my case I used some electric spray cleaner on the sensor and the machine is back in action
Thankyou so much for the informative video I've not seen such a easily deciphered video. Instructions and Info straight forward and complete. Easy peazy from start to finish! You rock!:I am receiving same code and will use ur video to help me along I am so thankful for your solution. Fisher nd paykel so easy to "fix"! One of my fave things bout my washer nd dryer!! Thankyou again! Cheers! CC
Thank you Jesse, you're the man! Like yourself, I had to order the exact same part, followed your process & Bam! I feel like a genius with clean clothes
Someone attempting this might also want to see the part where you can activate the pump to empty the water out. Page 21 on the manual. 4.2 Drain Pump Test GW Washer When in diagnostic mode press REGULAR to activate the drain pump. To deactivate the pump, press REGULAR again.

Fantastic video. I fixed my machine with your very clear and simple instructions. Very proud of myself too!
Mate your a legend . We were ready to ditch the bloody thing
Thans Jesse. Just fixed my missus machine using your video. Ended up cleaning up the corroded terminals on the RPS.
Thanks mate great video easy to understand and well explained viewed your video pulled apart as you explained ordered part online 1 week later very happy wife and I'm a legend. Thanks cheers Paul

Thank you for this video.. showing the part number in the box .. is explained beautifully
Just a point you need to note. Sorry if you did and I didn't watch it. (raced through the video,) you need to know why there was water damage. Most common reason would be because of water seal and bearing failure as well. There shouldn't be any water getting under there.
This helped me fix my washer too! Took care of a little corrosion & it works. Thanks a lot!
The man, thank you. Corroded connection on mine fixed in 30 min after the fault. My wife was in the car ready to go shopping

Thanks for positing this in good kiwi style, Jesse. This this the second time I've had to refer to it and both times this has been an invaluable reference. The first time a rat chewed through the wire cluster to the RPS and this time the RPS itself had turned up its toes as in your case - quite a pricey item, though.
Excellent mate - $60 for the part and easy to change after following your directions - well done and thanks for sharing.
Thanks Jesse for a brilliant video.

In my case, the black wire leading to the sensor had perished so much that it broke. Looks like built in deterioration that will eventually mean either a wiring loom or full machine replacement .
Explained as a professional would, excellent education... 5 stars...Rob
Great informative video mate probably 100% better than a washing machine mechanic would do anyway
You saved me hundreds in repairs mate! Thank you so much
Legend! Saved me a heap of time trying to figure this one out.
Thanks for your helpful video Jessie! Fixed it no trouble thanks to you, otherwise it was going to be a new washing machine! Keep up the good work
Thanks so much for this awesome video! Mums washing machine is back in action. I love the yeah-nah kiwi style. Makes me proud to live in NZ.

Thank you for the video, saved me around $200. Great work, can't thank you enough!
Also meant to mention that I didn't have to buy a spare part. There was a bit of corrosion on the circuit board so I just sprayed it with "electrical clean and lube" and cleaned it with cotton buds. Also did the plug where it connects to the board. Let it dry and hey presto. All fixed for now. You can buy electrical lube from www.jaycar.com.au/Service-Aids/Chemical-Aids/Aerosols/Contact-Cleaner-Lubricant-Spray-Can/p/NA1012

Like yourself, I had to order the exact same part, followed your process & Bam! I feel like a genius with clean clothes
Much appreciated mate. Fortunately all I had to do was scrub the contacts a bit.
Someone attempting this might also want to see the part where you can activate the pump to empty the water out. Page 21 on the manual.
4.2 Drain Pump Test
GW Washer
When in diagnostic mode press REGULAR to activate the drain pump. To deactivate the pump,
press REGULAR again.
That's going to make my job a lot easier, thanks!
