Code 15 on a Phase 1 Fisher & Paykel washer is a wrong pump circuit voltage. Replacing the Display Module is the listed action.
Model compatibility: Fisher & Paykel reuses codes across series and model years, so 15 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Phase 1 fault 15: the Display Module read the wrong voltage on the pump circuit.
Short entry, one action
Of the Phase 1 pump entries, 15 is the briefest. What the Display Module registered was a wrong voltage in the pump circuit. The same module is the primary source, and replacing it is the action given.
A supply note under the action
A line under the action is worth knowing. Should the Smartdrive be operating far below the voltage it is rated for, with the pump having run longer than 4 seconds at that level, the same fault shows up. A failed module is thus not the only reason; a low supply can bring on the code as well.
Limits of that note
It supplies no voltage to measure and no value that counts as low.
It describes nothing a household can check; outlet or building wiring trouble goes to a qualified electrician.
It does show why a technician might look at the supply ahead of ordering a part.
Phase 1 pump codes side by side
13: the pump was running although it should have been idle.
14: the pump stayed idle although it should have run.
15: the voltage on the pump circuit was off.
Thermal cut-out, windings and harness checks belong to 13 and 14 only. Fault 15 sends the manual straight to the Display Module.
Models
Phase 1 in the manual means GW650, GW070, GW060, GW050, GW700, GW600 and GW500.
Safety
Isolate the washer at the wall; the console stays closed.
