Fisher Paykel Washer Error Code 21, 26, 27, 49, 50 or 246

If your Fisher Paykel washer is displaying error codes 21, 26, 27, 49, 50, or 246, you’re likely dealing with a water inlet valve failure. This issue can disrupt the normal functioning of your appliance, but fear not – we’re here to guide you through the troubleshooting process.

Steps to Resolve Water Inlet Valve Failure:

  1. Safety First: Unplug the Washer

    Before attempting any troubleshooting, ensure the safety of both yourself and the appliance by disconnecting it from the power source.

  2. Inspect Wiring Connections:

    Carefully examine the water inlet valve assembly for any loose wires. If you find any, reconnect them securely.

  3. Check Wire Harness:

    Inspect the wire harness connected to the water inlet valve. If you notice any signs of damage or wear, it’s advisable to replace the wire harness.

  4. Resistance Measurement:

    If wiring connections are intact, use a volt/ohm meter to measure the resistance of the water inlet valves. The expected resistance for each water inlet valve should be around 61 ohms.

  5. Replace Faulty Water Inlet Valve:

    If the resistance of any water inlet valve deviates from the specified 61 ohms, it’s an indication of a malfunction. In such cases, replacing the entire water inlet valve assembly is recommended to ensure optimal performance.

Additional Tips:

  • Take note of the specific error code displayed to facilitate targeted troubleshooting.
  • Exercise caution and patience throughout the process to avoid causing further damage.

By following these steps, you can effectively address the water inlet valve failure causing Fisher Paykel washer error codes 21, 26, 27, 49, 50, or 246. If you encounter any challenges or the issue persists, seeking professional assistance is advised for a comprehensive diagnosis and resolution.

Remember, a smoothly functioning water inlet valve is crucial for the proper operation of your washer. Regular maintenance and prompt attention to error codes contribute to the longevity and efficiency of your appliance.
