Fisher & Paykel washer not draining or showing a drain error

When the pump fails, the drum is left holding water, the cycle stalls before spin and the display may show a drain fault. A pump on its way out often hums without moving water, drains slowly, or makes a grinding or rattling sound. Before buying, clean the filter and check the drain hose for kinks, because a blocked filter gives exactly the same symptoms. If the filter is clear and the pump still won't clear water, or the impeller is broken or jammed, the pump needs replacing.

Photograph the wiring and hoses, swap the pump across, then run a rinse and spin to check it drains and nothing leaks.
