Fisher & Paykel Washer Error Code 107

Error code 107 means the Display Module detected that the Motor Controller Module reset when it should not have. This can happen because of a power supply disturbance reaching the module or because the module's internal microprocessor has failed. The washer stops the cycle and logs this code to flag the unexpected controller reset. A technician will need to inspect the power supply and likely replace the Motor Controller Module.

No, you should not continue running the washer while error 107 is active. An unstable or resetting Motor Controller Module means the machine cannot reliably control the motor, which could lead to further component damage or unpredictable operation. It is best to leave the machine off until the fault is diagnosed and resolved.

A power reset may temporarily clear the displayed fault code, but if the underlying cause such as a failing Motor Controller Module or power supply issue is not resolved, the error will return. Resetting the machine without addressing the root cause is not a fix and may allow the problem to worsen. A proper diagnosis is needed to permanently clear this error.

Basic checks such as ensuring the washer is on a stable power circuit and inspecting for obviously loose wiring connections can be done at home. However, diagnosing and replacing the Motor Controller Module requires technical knowledge and disassembly of the machine. Most homeowners will need a qualified appliance technician to perform the repair safely and correctly.

Repair costs will depend on whether the issue is a wiring or power supply problem versus a full Motor Controller Module replacement. Labor costs for a technician visit typically range from $80 to $150, and a replacement Motor Controller Module can range from $150 to $350 or more depending on the specific model. Total repair costs including parts and labor generally fall between $200 and $500.
