Fisher & Paykel IWL16

Model # IWL16 (IWL16-US)

Fisher & Paykel washer repair

The IWL16 is the Intuitive Eco version of the Phase 7 SmartDrive, and Fisher & Paykel did not give it a standalone manual either — supplementary document 517793A, dated February 2005, sits on top of the Phase 7 book and describes only what differs. Anyone servicing one should read them together, because the pump motor detail and error code list that actually resolve a no-drain complaint live in the base manual, not the supplement.

Key Features

  • Intuitive Eco console on the Phase 7 SmartDrive platform
  • Direct-drive motor with no belt, pulley or gearbox
  • Diagnostic mode covering the pump motor, drain pump test and error codes
  • Adaptive wash that settles in over roughly the first five cycles

FAQ

Fisher & Paykel IWL16 FAQ

Same Phase 7 SmartDrive platform, different console and cycle set. That shared platform is why the two share so much of their error code numbering.

Rotor position sensing, the motor control module, or a spin the control is refusing because it has read the load as out of balance. Those are three quite different repairs, so it is worth diagnosing before ordering parts.
