E41 is a water heating error on the washer dryer. The article's only advice is to book a repair.
Model compatibility: Fisher & Paykel reuses codes across series and model years, so E41 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
Water heating error on the Fisher & Paykel washer dryer; no owner steps are listed.
The label
The help article describes E41 on the washer dryer as “Water heating error,” and adds almost nothing to that.
What the entry holds
A name for the fault: water heating.
The advice that applies to every code without a listed fix: arrange a repair and quote the code, which helps support work faster.
It mentions no heating element, thermostat or cause, and gives no temperature, reset or check for the owner to carry out.
Upkeep tips in the article
They relate to the washer dryer in general rather than to E41:
Monthly, clean the empty drum using a washing machine cleaner.
Leave the door a little open so air moves through.
Examine the water hoses every few months for cracks or leaks, keeping the connections snug.
Clear the lint filter following each load.
Safety
With a heating fault, hot water and mains electricity are in play. Power the machine down and let a technician handle anything inside.
