Hello there, Spin7 here,

I replaced pump and now my smart drive 601 will drain and spin. Yay! Two long screws with groove at end are left over ? but all screw holes are filled.

Problem is the machine is so unbearably noisy, not off balance as did a check run with only 2 items on a low wash.

Other problem - machine will not stop spinning, so pushed the pause, then power button myself.

Frightened to use it to do a full wash as I fear the noise it telling me it will blow-up. It is ear muff loud. Please can you help.

Thanks Spin7

I cannot get your model number to come up, one site said it was a Fisher and Paykel. Can you check it and re post.

Thanks

Thanks for the update. I have only worked on these once or twice ( have a pair in the shop I am getting ready to start on Thursday) so I cannot really speak with any authority on your machine.

I will use this post to invite other techs to chime in with some suggestions if they have them.

Thankyou so much. Await further responses from some more clever washer fixers. Here's hoping.
