It won't get off delay
Before transporting then storing my GW712, what is the best way to remove residual water?
What causes the washing machine to keep filling up and over flowing
Does the GW712 have the rubber bands/supports on the suspension rods at the top?? Just opened mine up and there is no bands at all just suspension rods. Would this be correct??
Water leaking from bottom
How do I find out the approximate age of my machine? GW712 serial number EEN565796
Thanks in advance
Hi, i have a GW712 AU 2004 machine. It's currently not draining properly when it gets to the rinse cycle. i have checked all the parts on the machine and they seem to be fine, the only thing i have noticed is underneath the machine there is a 5 cent size black dust/dirt stuff after each load. Does the drain pump need to be replaced or the cold water inlet?
Thanks
When were these machines made, from what year to end of production
How do you open the machine up
In what year was this model made
I have a Phase 7 GW712. It won't spin at either the rinse or final spin stages. After pumping the water out of the drum, it goes into a little routine where it gives the agitator a twitch, then gives the drum a twitch, then starts to spin at which point it engages the lid lock solenoid and corresponding indicator, but immediately releases the solenoid and starts the routine again. It does this routine 32 times before finally giving an error code of 11101011 or decimal 235 which is lid lock failure. Based on this error I have replaced the lid lock mechanism with a brand new one but still have the same problem. What could be the problem?
Hi could you tell me the manufacture date of my F&P GW712 serial number MPN583214
Thanks
Hi our GW712 keeps stopping (usually during rinse) and beeping and does every time we restart. The first light and the spin light, light up in orange and it just beeps. Even if we unplug and wait it does exactly the same thing. Any ideas please.
G’day Kirsty, mine just started doing the same yesterday! Did you work out what it is yet?
Hi Kahli, yes we did it was a rotor sensor and possibly the actual rotor wheel out of balance. Our machine is so old and been discontinued so would've cost more than it's worth. So new machine for us.. hope this helps.
which is the hot inlet and the cold inlet?
Can some one tell me the energy and water rating please?
Can you tell me the rating on this machine, please?
Hi, what year is model GW712 ?
My machine just stopped working, power cut out at beginning of start up..after a little water entering..?
Checked power source, wall socket and extension cord..all fine..
If it is power board how much to replace it?
Thank you.
Sorry Sheila....my review was about the good run we had with the GW712 which was a 2011 model. Can't help you with the mechanical side of things as I don't repair washing machines sorry.
I have had this machine for 10 years first bit of trouble spin cycle has stopped any ideas of the problem to fix it
I have this model machine. In the last 2 months it’s becoming unbalanced along to the point it’s getting a lot frustrating. Even putting clothes in before wash all even for the weight and then next minute when it’s on spin it goes BOOM BOOm kos it’s sounds unbalanced so I have to take all the clothes out to even then out again and then it’s good to go. Does anyone know what may be wrong because other than th last 2 months it had never done this.
Hot water intake hose side??
