Hi I have an approx 8 yr old F & P Intuitive Eco Washing Machine and I'm getting a 136 error message every few wash cycles. (well I've had it twice in about 8 washes) What does this indicate, how critical is it (ie am I ok to keep using it) and how much is it likely to cost (AUD) Thanks

Hi - check out this post - Code 130 - 136 all mean the same its a communication error between the sensors & the controller.

By mattnewmanha on Jun 16, 2011

I have a F&P MW512 top loader. It has developed a code 130. I have been told this is a faulty RPS. is this something I can fix at home? is there a bypass? how do I access and inspect the part?

Fisher & Paykel Washing machine Intuitive Eco Error 130 then Error 136

Hi - Faults 130-136 means there are some serious comm problems - motor stalls etc. The most likely cause would be the RPS Senor - has failed or loose, corroded, bad wiring connections.

This is under the machine - tilt on its back, remove the center round rotor has magnets on the inside be careful it stays clean. there are 4 bolts in the middle - remove to get stator off with all the copper wounded contraption, remove the wiring - not to worry too much but note on the stator Y_B_R relates to colours on wire harness, note also the harness & RPS component. replace this assemble & should work fine unless the controller is a dud.

95% of the time this is your culprit.... Part # 438515P I think for these range - pays to check 1st - You need to quote the Product nuber as this is critical to the components under the hood if you get my drift.

I have not had good experiences with this washer My personal opinion would be to purchase a good second hand washer from craigslist as the repairs on this unit will probably reach 300+ including parts. You can get good second hand washers for that or less.

Fisher & paykel intuitive Fault code 136

Sounds like a motor problem 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 control mudule end.should be approx 32 ohms.You can also check at the motor,I have seen a few open circuit connections where the motor connections (spade clips) Push into the plastic motor housing,Hope this helps.
