21. Water Valve Over Current

The Motor Control Module has detected that the water valve circuit is drawing too high a current.
Primary Source: Water valves.
Action:
Check that the resistance of the water valves are 61-64Ω @ 20°C.
Secondary Source: Motor Control Module
Action:
Replace the Motor Control module.

31. Diverter Valve Not Connected

The Motor Control Module has found that the Diverter Valve is not connected.
Primary Source: Wiring harness.
Action:
Check the wiring harness connections at both the Motor Control Module and Diverter valve.
Secondary Source: Diverter Valve.
Action
Check the resistance of the wax solenoid, resistance range will be between 0.7kΩ and 2.5kΩ.
Values are dependent on ambient temp and when the valve was last actuated. Anything
outside of these values should be automatically replaced.
Tertiary Source: Motor Control Module
Action:
Replace the Motor Control Module
Note: This fault will only show up during installation test

36. Water Leak Fault

The Motor Control Module has needed to top up the water level more than 4 times during
agitate. This is excessive, as normally only one or two top ups are required to replace the air that
has escaped from a full load during agitate. The most likely cause is that the machine is siphoning.
The other alternative is that the machine has developed a leak.
Primary Source: Pump System.
Action:
1) Check the height of the drain hose outlet Minimum 850mm, maximum 1200mm.
2) Check that the hose guide is fitted and check that the hose does not protrude more than 20mm
beyond the guide.
Secondary Source: Mechanical.
Action:
1) Check the pressure tube connections on the outer bowl and Motor Control Module.
2) Check that the drive shaft seal and the pump housing seal have not developed a leak.
Tertiary Source: Motor Control Module.
Action:
Replace Motor Control Module.

38. Pressure Sensor Fault

The Motor Control Module has detected and recorded an empty water level while agitating. The
water level must have been greater than empty for the machine to start agitating initially.
Primary Source: Mechanical.
Action:
Check the pressure tube is attached and has not been cut.
