Fisher Paykel DishDrawer Repair, Troubleshooting, Easy Disassembly, and Maintenance.
Рет қаралды 180,265
Күн бұрынThe Fisher Paykel Dishwasher (DishDrawer) is one of the easiest dishwashers to DIY troubleshoot, disassemble, maintain, and repair. See my complete interior DishDrawer disassembly here in just 4 simple steps:
1) Pull out the dish rack
2) Pull out the spray arm
3) Unlock, and pull out the chrome filter tray
4) Unlock the pump/rotor and pull out (note alignment of all tabs for reassembly)
Why do I love the Fisher Paykel DishDrawer? - It is so DIY friendly!
Once disassembled, it's also a good time to perform a quick cleaning. Simply wipe out the basin, rinse/clean the arm, tray, and pump, ensure the drain hole is free from obstructions, then reassemble! NO special tools needed, except your two hands! 👍
The dishwasher was making a terrible noise. video here:

* Clean the removable filter WEEKLY (throw it in the other Drawer), and perform a complete cleaning shown here at least TWICE a year.

@ericgray9395 2 жыл бұрын
Different solution - Nope this suggestion did not work. In my case water in the top drawer after running the bottom drawer. The fix is a small 1/2" round flapper valve in the drain hose that no longer worked properly and allowed water to run back down the drain line into the top drawer. Hired a plumber that used to be a authorized F/P repairman. Valve was $16 and took about half hour to fix. $110 total. Works great 3 months later. Hope this helps to diagnose.

I have a dishdrawer which is only a few months out of its 2 year warranty (lol). When closing the drawer, the mechanical toggle clips in the back receive the tub and work fine. But the drawer doesn't "suck" fully in flush... it's out by about 3 mm. I assume the machine uses electromechanical actuators to hold it fully in (compared to our other unit - it's why you have two Dishdrawers installed, for redundancy as one always fails). When we run a wash cycle, we can actually open the drawer during the cycle. I have inspected all hoses, they're fine. I have cycled the power. Upon cycling the power I can hear some actuators reset upon power up, but it doesn't fix the issue. There are no fault codes or beeps. This has me stumped! Fisher Paykel didn't offer any suggestions or let me talk to someone technical, which was rather frustrating being an engineer myself. Any clues?

Hello, any suggestions please - my top drawl is not pumping out water. Bottom Drawl is good. I have swapped the rotors around and it is not a rotor issue. Bottom drawl (good), test mid cycle -> power off -> pump turns on and drains water out. Top drawl(bad), produced F2 error. Water does not drain out, cannot hear pump being turned on compared to bottom drawl. Only way to get water to slowly leak out is to blow into the hose, also have had air pump from inside the drawl, no luck. Also have tried to use hot water as suggested to clean out any oil etc.
@myoldhousefix 3 жыл бұрын
There is very likely some obstruction in the pump cavity. This is the small channel connecting the drain sump and the pump cavity - as seen in the video. Turn off the power/unplug. Grab a thin but rigid wire and clear this channel. Check to make sure the rotor turns free, and isnt frozen. Also check to make sure your drain hoses arent clogged or obstructed. Last, plug back in, this will also "reset " the machine. If it's still not working the only 2 items left are the rotor and control board. Best of luck!

Many thanks for your great video, however I have a different configuration of drawer. I live in Australia which may explain my not having exact same drawer. (your model s is same as my previous drawers) My problem is that when I strip it down completely, after removing everything, the bottom of the dishwasher has further set of small drainage holes in the casing of the drawer (not to be removed) except with special headed screwdriver. These holes are 50% blocked and I have a feeling this panel is not to be removed by me. I am worried that if it is 50% blocked like this in two years of use, in a couple of years, it will be fully blocked. From memory that water used to be extracted from side of small round filter opening..... I definitely do rinse dishes by the way..... Hope you can assist.....
@myoldhousefix 2 жыл бұрын
hmm, I'm not familiar with that model, but I'd be curious to see if any of the maintenance instructions reference the additional set of holes. I'm pretty sure they are still part of the draining system, which could be cleaned with small brushes/pipe cleaners. Besides a failed pump, the main enabler of proper draining is making sure the drain port/hoses stay clear...

I have the same dishwasher two drawers from F&P. I managed to replace motor following your video but now there seems to be another fault of water leak ( Rinse is beeping red ), when opening top drawer water is leaking from bottom. Do you know what to try and resolve? Drain pipe and source pipe seem to be intact without holes.
@myoldhousefix Жыл бұрын
if the motor/pump seal was OK and the drain lines aren't cloghed/leaking, it might be a split in the plastic chassis (though uncommon). If it wasn't leaking prior to the motor/ pump replacement, I'd recheck that area and all connections. Also, make sure you didn't have an item too tall in for that wash that may have prevented the top door from sealing properly, amd water possibly escaping.

@Sara F, hi is there a particular time when it is leaking - filling, washing, draining, etc? You may want to pull it out, check all the lines/connections. Also, always check to make sure that no dishes extend past the top of the diswasher sealing flange, otherwise it can warp the door upon closing and cause it to leak. You can also run the dishwasher if you pull it out and inspect where the leaks are originating from.

@@myoldhousefix I think the wash was almost complete until I heard the constant beeping. The water is still there about 5cm high. Yes sliding the DW in and out has resistance, about halfway is where the resistance begins but it still can be pulled out or pushed in fully. Lastly I cannot properly change the cycles with the buttons however I can stop the beeping by pressing the holding down the start button. Some things I know might have caused the problem, a few weeks ago a glass broke and I found shards inside the filter. Also I think I put in some kitchen utensils that were too tall for the DW.

Finally, check operation of the rails (open/close positions), the drain hose guide wire, and make sure nothing was stretched out of tolerance, misaligned, etc. Reassemble and make sure the tub seats properly in the track and locking tabs properly snap back into place.

Mathieu, the top things to check to ensure proper water drainage are: 1) make sure to keep it clean under the top cover and pump area - clean as per video. And keep the removable filter clean. 2) make sure your drain lines have a "high loop" per install instructions - it keeps solids from clogging the lines 3) as a last resort, make sure your drain lines are clean end to end - disconnect, clean and verify no blockages. 4) you may have a failing pump if it's 6 to 10 years old.

Mine is not turning on at all? No power? Will I need an electrician?
@myoldhousefix 3 жыл бұрын
Hi DK, if you can confirm power is getting to the dishwasher and it still doesnt work, there is an electrical issue with the dishwasher itself - board, circuit, etc... 1) is it on a dedicated breaker in your electrical box? Try resetting the breaker - flip it off and back on. 2) Where the dishwasher plugs in...is it a GFI plug? If so, try resetting it. Also plug something else into the dishwasher plug and see if it works. This should at least narrow it down to the electrical service or the dishwasher...

@@myoldhousefix Hi, Thanks for replying . The power button just will not turn on. I have ttied uaing other power outlets and its not that. There is an enclosed case its wired to and I havent unscrewed that. Would be good to show pics but unable on YT. But a screwed in small power box. Im guessing it contains fuses? I would say an electrical issue.

Would you still recommend this dishwasher?
@myoldhousefix Жыл бұрын
Hi latui7350, yes I would. We have had ours since 2015 with zero issues besides general cleaning. The top unit may need a pump within the next year, but so far 8 years with no issues. 👍

Do not listen to this person. I took out that blue thing as insurcted and broke the motor and was charged for a spare part. Do not listen to do it yourself youtube videos, get a professional who knows what they are talking about to do it.
@myoldhousefix Жыл бұрын
I'm sorry to hear that you broke your dishwasher. The pump/motor is simple to remove, but any part can be damaged if forced or improperly removed - by pro or DIY'er. Im not sure what your circumstances were, but maybe take a little more care and be a little more gentle next time?
