Action IW Machines: To access Size Setting Mode, push and hold the Fabric Care button
Note: Fault code 9 will only be logged into the memory of IW machines. GW and MW
machines can display this fault but it will not be recorded.
10. (00001010) Temperature Sensor (Thermistor) Error
The temperature sensor may be open circuit or the ambient temperature is below minus
10 o C. This fault is only applicable in the GW models.
Primary Source:
Secondary Source – Motor Control Module
Action:
12. (00001100) Flood Protection Error
The Motor Control Module has found the water level to be above the flood level and tried to
pump the excess water out. (Under extremely high flow rate conditions the machine may
overfill during the "top-up" routine in agitate.) After pumping for 30 seconds, it has been
unable to lower the water level below the flood level. Either the water valves have stuck on
and are letting water in at a flow rate that is higher than the pump can handle, or the pump
is blocked and can't remove the excess water.

26. (00011010) Detergent Valve Fault
The Motor Control Module has measured a voltage from the valve diagnostic circuit that
indicates the detergent valve (with Purple Clip) is faulty. The most likely cause is that the
valve harness has not been connected correctly or the valve is open circuit. See fault code
49 for service procedure.
27. (00011011) Fabric Softener Valve Fault
The Motor Control Module has measured a voltage from the valve diagnostic circuit that
indicates the fabric softener valve (with Yellow Clip) is faulty. The most likely cause is that
the valve harness has not been connected correctly or the valve is open circuit. See fault
code 49 for service procedure.
36. (00100100) 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:
• Press Spin Speed Up, the Spin Hold LED is on for 7.5 / 8.0kg
(650mm wide).
• Press Power to confirm the setting and also exit this mode.
and then press the Power button to enter Size Setting mode. Select
the correct size on the display by pushing the Adjust button to
highlight the correct size. Size setting is then achieved by pressing
the Power button. Powering off will set the size into the memory.
Thermistor
1. Check the connection of the thermistor to the Motor Control
Module.
2. Check resistance of temperature sensor. Resistance should be
10k ohms @ 25
3. Replace Motor Control Module.
Water Valves.
If the water valves are on continuously, check that the water valves
turn off mechanically (remove power from machine).
Check the pump for blockages and drain hose for correct height and
kinking
