· lsd - load sensing detection is used to continually sense the load and automatically adjust the agitation profiles to suit the wash load. It is also used to determine when a maximum capacity profile needs to be used. If additional garments are added during the cycle the washer will adjust accordin...
Page 9: Stand By Mode
Stand by mode if the washing machine has not received any instructions for 15 minutes after being switched on at the power point or after completing the cycle it will automatically go into a low power stand by mode. Before entering the diagnostic or option adjustment modes the machine must be taken ...
Page 10: Stator
Stator the stator resistance has changed to allow for a lower current through the electronics. This stator is not interchangeable with the previous models and can be identified by smaller terminal connections. The resistances of the windings are now 16 ohms per phase. The rotor has not changed and c...

If the pump's thermal overload goes open circuit the power to the module will be lost, so no fault will be reported. When the thermal device has reset, the module will power up normally. This could take between 3 - 10 minutes depending on the temperature of the pump at the time of failure. The numbe...
Page 12: 3.0 Diagnostic Mode
3.0 diagnostic mode the diagnostic mode for mode gwl10 now incorporates both the switch test mode and the data display mode. You no longer have to use the advance button to toggle between them. To enter the diagnostic mode: 1. Turn the power on at the power point and off at the console. 2. Press and...

Data display press the spin speed up button until the hold and slow spin led's are on, (binary count 3). The wash progress led's will now display the fault code. By using a binary numbering system each unique fault code can be given a number. 3.1 examples of binary code wash progress led’s binary co...
Page 14: 3.3 Drain Pump Test
The following tests can be carried out in the diagnostic mode. 3.2 lid switch & out of balance switch test press the spin speed up button until the medium spin led is on, (binary count 4). When the lid is open the 12-minute wash led will be on. Activating the out of balance lever under the top deck ...

3.5 re-start feature water level down button turns the re-start feature on/off. Low water level led on = re-start on. (factory setting). Low water level led off = re-start off. 1. If a fault occurs in the machine, the diagnostic system will detect it. However, instead of displaying a fault code imme...
Page 16: 3.8 Fault Display
3.8 fault display if the machine enters a fault mode during normal operation, the machine will display the detailed fault code on the wash progress led's and beep continuously. The hold and slow spin led's will also be displayed. During the above process the beeper will sound continuously. It is adv...
Page 17: 5.0 Detailed Fault Codes
5.0 detailed fault codes introduction the format for fault description in this booklet follows the primary, secondary and tertiary fault source system. These sources have mostly been arranged in order of most likely source of fault but in some cases the sequence has been modified to aid the servicin...
Page 18: Fault Descriptions
Fault descriptions 1. (00000001) motor controller module fault the motor controller module has found a memory error. Primary source - motor controller module. Action - replace motor controller module. 2. (00000010) motor controller module fault an error has been encountered when trying to read the p...
Page 19
Secondary source - motor controller module. Action gwl03 if the motor controller module has been changed from one size machine to another, then the size switch settings in the memory will have to be reset. This can be done by entering and exiting the option adjustment mode. Push and hold start/pause...

36. (00100100) water leak fault the motor controller module has needed to top up the water level more than 4 times during agitate. This is excessive as normally only one or two top ups are required to replace the air that has escaped from a full load during agitate. The most likely cause is that the...
Page 21
Tertiary source - motor controller module. Action activate pump by operating the machine in spin mode. Check pump is rotating. If not operating and primary and secondary checks have been performed then replace motor controller module. 38. (00100110) pressure sensor fault the motor controller module ...
Page 22
41. (00101001) temperature sensor fault the temperature sensor is measuring temperatures above 230 °f (110°c.). The fault is probably due to a short circuit in the sensor line. Primary source - thermistor. Action - replace the thermistor. 43. (00101011) oob switch fault the motor controller module h...
Page 23
45. (00101101) display memory check fault on power up the display has checked its memory against a known reference and found differences. Primary source- display module. Action - replace display module. 47. (00101111) basket dis-engage fault while carrying out a basket check, the motor controller mo...
Page 24
50. (00110010) hot valve faulty the motor controller module has measured a voltage from the valve diagnostic circuit that indicates that the hot valve is faulty. Also the cold water valve could have low resistance. The most likely cause is that the valve harness has not been connected correctly or t...
Page 25
54. (00110110) motor/motor controller module step fail the motor controller module has attempted a motor step test and has found that the motor has not stepped in the correct position. The motor controller module has detected that there is no current. This indicates that either the motor is not conn...
