Fault Codes and Possible Causes - LED Models
The following is a list of fault codes and possible solutions if a fault code is displayed.
FAULT
Cause
Control Action
F01
The motor is running when it
should be off.
• Check if module connector J3 has shorted due to moisture.
• Replace module.
F02
Open circuit between
module and motor Common.
• Check security of module connector J3;
• Test motor Common (TOC);
• Check wiring between J3 and motor.
F03
Front thermistor open or
short circuit.
• Check security of module connector J12;
• Test from connector pins (approximately 500 Kohms);
• If open or short circuit, test thermistor and wiring between
thermistor and J12 to locate fault.
F04
Pump working when should
be off.
• Check security of module connector J5;
• Check connector for signs of shorting due to moisture;
• Replace module (F04 would normally be caused by a faulty
module).
F05
Pump is not working when it
should be on.
• Check security of module connector J5;
• Check connector for signs of shorting due to moisture;
• Replace module (F05 would normally be caused by a faulty
module).
F06
Not used.
•
F07
Lower element failure
• Check security of module connector J4;
• Test between pins 4 and 3 on J4 (approximately 48 Ohms);
• If open circuit, test lower element and wiring between J4 and
the heater.
F08
Lower element is energised
when it should be off.
• Check security of module connector J4;
• check connector for signs of shorting due to moisture;
• Test heater elements and wiring;
• Replace module (F08 would normally be caused by a faulty
module).
F09
Error Set Up File. Eeprom is
either not programmed or is
not functioning.
• If the module is a production board, replace the module;
• If the module has an Eeprom socket, check the eeprom is
correctly inserted and programmed.
F10
Open circuit in the heater
Common wiring.
• Check module connector J4;
• Check wiring between module connector J4 and the heater;
• Test heater elements.
Note: -
Frequent cycling stat operation can cause F10, check
filter and condenser for blockages.
If testing for a Heater related fault, test on a Cotton High Heat setting or
a Timed setting with High Heat enabled.
F11
Open circuit pump circuit.
• Test continuity of pump;
• Check connector J5;
• Check wiring between pump and module J5.
Note: -
F11 is usually caused by a fault in the pump circuit not
the module.
Auto cycle being used fault displays within 1 minute
Time and Wool cycles being used fault displays at the
end of the cycle.
