Mend Fisher & Paykel Start Cycle Water Stops

How can i fix my fisher and Paykel smartdrive 701?

I try to start a cycle and it has a short 1 sec burst of water, then it stops for a few seconds then it has another short burst of water, it repeats this process a few times and then just starts beeping, also if i go straight to a spin cycle it will have a short 1 sec pump out of water, start to move then stop for awhile, then it will repeat the process until it decides to beep at me again

Fisher & Paykel Household Appliances, Washing Machines Start Cycle Water Stops

Nope, it still not working. Seemed like it was filling ok, But then when I walked in, it was just about over flowing, It didnt stop like normal. Plus when I press the power button to turn it off, it comes on by itself 5 seconds later & starts beeping at me.?????

I have the exact same problem. So I pulled out control panel & checked curcuit board & could see no visual signs of anything burn or blown, So i put it all back together & now its working.... But for how long???

I Have the same Problem, I Pulled out the motor Control board and its a double sided board and underneath there is a couple of blown components on mine, with carbon residue from the malfunction on the blue plastic of the box. So I need a new motor control, but unless I can find one second hand they are to dear to get a refurbished one.Check yours for same problem. best of luck
