Secondary Source - Motor.
Action
1) Measure/check the motor harness connectors and motor for shorts. This can be done by taking a
resistance measurement between phases of the motor harness at the Motor Controller module
end. Nominal resistance should be around 12.2 ohm.
2) Check the Rotor Positional Sensor and associated harness for water, mechanical damage or
corrosion
Tertiary Source - Motor Controller Module.
Action
If all the above show no signs of fault then replace the Motor Controller Module. Also check for
water leaks from the cooling chamber or valves that could possibly come in contact with the Motor
Controller Module and fix the leak before replacing with new Motor Controller Module.
133. (10000101) Repetitive Current Trip
The Motor Controller has detected excess current in the motor or electronic switches. This fault is a
more severe occurrence than Fault Number 132 but has identical fault sources and fault service
procedure.
134. (10000110) Single Current Trip & Rotor Position Error.
The Motor Controller module has detected an excessive motor current AND a Rotor Position
Sensor error simultaneously. See fault codes 130 and 132 for service procedure.
136. (10001000) Motor Stall
The Motor Controller Module has been unable to start the motor. Possible causes of this fault are:
Faulty motor harness, faulty or jammed motor, seized bearings or seals, faulty Motor Controller
Module, faulty Rotor Position Sensor or harness.
Primary Source - Wiring.
Action
Measure/check the motor harness connectors and motor for discontinuity. This can be done by
taking a resistance measurement between phases of the motor harness at the Motor Controller
Module end. Nominal resistance should be around 12.2 ohm.
Secondary Source - Motor
Action
1) Check free rotation of the agitator and basket by rotating by hand. Bearings and seals may be
seized.
2) Check the Rotor Position Sensor and associated harness for water, mechanical damage or
corrosion.
Tertiary Source - Motor Controller Module
Action - If the primary and secondary checks pass inspection then replace the Motor Controller
Module.
160. (10100000) Basket Engaged
The basket has re-engaged itself during agitate. Possible causes for this are a leak in the air bell,
basket is over-loaded with clothes, and the clutch has jammed or is fouled with a foreign object.
