FISHER & PAYKEL DISHDRAYER DD603_DD6031_DS603_ DISASSEMBLE PROCEDURE - [ 4 of 4 ]






                                                                          [ 4 of 4 ]

CHASSIS CIRCUIT BOARD _ FLOOD SENSOR REMOVAL

  • Release clip on chassis module cover and slide cover to the right to remove.
  • Disconnect all wiring to the chassis circuit board taking care not to damage the small lid actuator motor plugs.
  • Remove center earth screw from chassis circuit board.
  • Release the clip holding the left-hand end of the circuit board down.
  • Carefully lift the left-hand end of the circuit board up and then to the left taking care not to damage the flood sensor


WATER VALVE REMOVAL
  • Remove the chassis module cover.
  • Disconnect the wiring connections to both solenoid coils. Release the locking tabs for the connectors with a blade screwdriver while doing this.
  • Disconnect the inlet hose connection.
  • You can now slide the water valve up out of its mounting bracket.
  • Disconnect the two fill hoses off the valve noting which hose goes to the top and tub and which goes to the bottom tub.


FILL HOSE - DRAIN HOSE - WIRING HARNESS REPLACEMENT
  • From the tub end disconnect the component you need to replace (fill hose, drain hose, wiring harness).
  • Remove the relevant component from each of the three link clips and the chassis clips holding it.
  • Do this one at a time marking its position at each clip in the link and closing each clip after the component is removed to keep the other two components clipped in the correct position.
  • The component can now be disconnected from the chassis end and removed.



  • Mark the position of the link support clips on the fill hose, drain hose and harness.
  • Undo the clips and remove the link support.
  • Fit the new link support.
  • Check the clips are in the same position as the original. The wire ties on the wiring harness need to be located inside the clips
  • If they are not, it could prevent the tub from closing fully, which may cause the product to “Pause” part way through the cycle, or the link support may interfere with and reset the latch while the Drawer is closing.

TOE KICK REMOVAL
  • Partly open bottom drawer.
  • Loosen the right and left hand toe kick screws.
  • Slide the toe kick towards the front of the tub until it comes of the mounting rails.

LOWER CUB COWLING
  • Release the center clip as shown and slide the cowling forward.

FOOT TRIM REPLACEMENT
  • First remove both the left and right hand yokes as per instructions.  This is to prevent damaging the locating tab at the front of each yoke which fits into the trim.
  • The trim has to be removed by breaking the retaining clips.
  • This can be done by slipping a blade screwdriver between the trim and the chassis and twisting the blade to snap the clips. Protect the cabinet from chipping and remove the broken clips so they don’t fall in to the tub and damage the rotor.
  • Check that a light prism is fitted in to the trim.
  • Remove the drawer front and handle as per instructions so the replacement trim can be fitted over the tub.
  • Line up the clips on the replacement trim with the holes in the chassis and push home.


WATER SOFTENER
  • Disconnect the Wiring Loom connections to the Water Softener Diverter valve, Brine pump and Salt Level Detector and remove the Dispenser Wiring Loom connection to the Electronic Controller.
  • Use a flat bedded screwdriver to open the Salt Level Indicator LED cover and remove the LED from the Water Softener.
  • Unclip the Fill Hose and the Dispenser Hose form the Water Softener.
  • Remove the 4 T10 torx drive screws securing the Water Softener to the Tub
  • The Water Softener can now be removed from the Product
  • To refit, place the Overflow O’ring on the Water Softener and lubricate the Tub overflow with a water soluble lubricant e.g Glycerol or similar.
  • Place the Salt Tank O’ring in the tub. Lubricate the Salt Tank flange on the Water Softener.
  • Pass the Dispenser Wiring Loom through the Water Softener and plug it into the Electronic Controller.
  • Place the Water Softener in the Tub and apply enough pressure to seat the O’rings.  The Overflow should sit almost flush with the inside of the Tub.  The Salt Tank should be recessed by approx. 1mm from the inside of the Tub.
