Fisher & Paykel Washer E52 Error Code

Content status: Verified

Error code E52
Appliance Washer
Quick answer

E52 has two labels depending on the washer: a board or software error or a communication error.

Model compatibility: Fisher & Paykel reuses codes across series and model years, so E52 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

E52 is an electronic board or software error on the Flexidose front loader and a communication error on the washer dryer.

One code, two descriptions. In the front loader article from Fisher & Paykel, E52 is an “Electronic board or software error.” In the washer-dryer article it is a “Communication error.”

Side by side

Washer Description Action in the article
Flexidose front loader (WH8060J5) Electronic board or software error Switch off at the power supply, wait 30 seconds, restart; book a repair if the code comes back
Washer dryer Communication error Book a service repair and have the code to hand

What the front loader article asks

There are three actions, taken in this order: power off at the supply, a 30-second wait, a restart. That routine applies to each code in the article with the exception of E1. A closing line adds that a returning code means booking a repair.

What the washer dryer article offers

E52 shares the communication error label with a number of other codes, and no owner steps are given for any of them. Advice at the bottom covers cleaning the drum, leaving the door open to air, checking the hoses and the lint filter. None of it is linked to E52.

Before you phone

  • Copy down the code as it is displayed.
  • Find the model details. The front loader article asks for them.
  • Mention if a restart has already been tried.

Codes close to E52

  • E51: next in number, labelled the same two ways
  • E21, E5C, EA and ND: board or software errors on the front loader
