32 is a Phase 1 pump circuit error read by the Display Module. The manual lists a console moisture check and a new module.
Model compatibility: Fisher & Paykel reuses codes across series and model years, so 32 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: the Display Module detected the pump on when it is off, a pump circuit error.
The manual names 32 Pump Circuit Error and places it in Phase 1. The Display Module has seen the pump switched on at a time when it is meant to be off. Nothing in the entry mentions a blocked drain or a damaged hose, because the display is the part that monitors the pump circuit.
The manual’s checklist
Look for moisture around the console.
Replace the Display Module.
The Display Module is the primary source. No secondary source appears.
For the owner
Keep the unplugged washer closed and leave the console alone. Looking for moisture there is the first check, and both that and the Display Module replacement belong to a technician.
Other Phase 1 pump entries
Code 13 has the Display Module seeing the pump run when it should not, and the manual gives pump checks for it.
Code 14 has the pump staying off when it should run.
Those three divide the pump reading among running, not running and voltage faults. Code 32 is documented only for Phase 1, puts the Display Module first, and gives no pump or hose checks.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
