Fisher Paykel 2001 Model GWL10US clothes washer. Went out to walk the dogs, when I came back, was beeping over & over. (not the muscal beeps, the loud irritating beeps). Had a horse saddle pad (sorry) and a pair of jeans in there, was off balance. Rearranged them, thought that would do it. Turn it back on, the washer makes several sounds several seconds apart like it's trying to start, then it stops completely and the following lights come on: Reading left to right, #3 (green), #5 (green), # 7 (yellow), and the red spin light#8. Tried unplugging it and waiting and plugging it back in, that doesn't help. FP Help guy told me I have to call a serviceman, that it is an Electronics Fault. If you can fix this for me, I'll promise you hours of pleasure, and you can even bring your sword.

in future if you are going to wash only a couple of things set the wash with the spin speed on hold , this will do the full wash without spinning when it finishes the cycle rearrange the load and run it just on the spin , saves out of balance problems
