Check your pump with a multimeter for correct reading
230V AC Pump 50Hz 33Ohms +/- 8% @ 20oC
110V AC Pump 60Hz 7Ohms +/- 8% @ 20oC
Also check for blockages that may stop pump from turning.
Disconnect from power & Bail out all the water you can before removing pump.

not familliar with that exact model number ( we dont have that over here in the US) we have simalair f&p gwl10- gwl11) that problem sounds as if either the pump is bad and overheating before pumping all the water or a diverter valve is not fully closing allowing water to remain in tub.

SOURCE: I have a fisher and paykel Excellence smart drive

UNplug from mains wait 5 seconds plug back in all lights should come on then go off if this happens then hold down start/pause button and press power after that take your hands off count 5 seconds then push power off again.That should reset things BUT I think your problem is a crook out of balance micro switch located under the main board,Or a crook lid switch bypass them and if it works replace the crook one.And if you don,t have any luck let me know which lights are on from left to right to establish the correct fault code.Hope this helps Cheers.

SOURCE: FISHER PAYKEL WASHING MACHINE STUCK IN RINSE CYCLE

lift the end of the drain hose see if the tub fills and goes in the rinse cycle if it works you have a syphon problem if so make your drain pipe stand longer.

SOURCE: Stops before rinse cycle... won't drain or spin.

The REGULAR CYCLE button turns the drain pump on or off. The REGULAR LED will turn
on when the pump is on. This feature can be used to drain the tub. You could get a bucket and lay the hose on the fllor. Gravity will drain it down.

Fisher&paykel ,smart drive excellence 7 .5 ,the washing machine stopped working during the pumping out of the water.no power on the top panel and a slight humming noise

What is it? No power to panel or slight humming sound which indicated there is power? Can't be both. I would suggest that the humming sound if you put it on spin, will be the drain pump trying to go. If pump is left humming like that it will get hot & shut the power off until it cools down again. Pump hums when it has a blockage & can'y spin. Clear the blockage.

Smart drive 085

It won't spin until all the water is drained out. The drain pump may be blocked or faulty. Fix the drain pump fault first then deal with the filling issue. They will not be related.

Hi I have a fisher and pykel fresh smart drive 9 and its filled up with water but wont drain,ive tried advancing the cycle but all I get is a humming noise.please help

The humming noise is due to the drain pump being jammed due to clogging of dirt. All you need is to remove the drain pump and do a full clean up. You can also try to tap on the drain pump while it is humming as it will release the dirt and wash off.

Spin the fan on water pump (you can acess with difficulty from bottom of washer) if it has a little sand in it, it may clear. It is possible to remove water pump if mechanically minded and see if something small eg staple or 5c coin is stuck in it if this dosn't work or you may find you need to replace water pump.
