Fisher & Paykel Dishwasher Error Code A60

Error code A60 indicates a water supply or inlet valve issue on your Fisher & Paykel dishwasher. This error means the appliance is not receiving adequate water pressure or flow to complete the wash cycle properly.

🔍

Problems you may notice

• Dishwasher stops mid-cycle and displays error code A60 • No water or insufficient water filling the wash chamber • Cycle begins but fails to progress beyond the initial fill stage • Error code appears on the digital display panel • Wash cycle does not complete; dishes remain unwashed • Alarm or alert sound accompanies the error message • Water not spraying from spray arms during operation
⚙️

Possible Causes

• Water supply valve is partially closed or fully shut off at the source • Inlet hose is kinked, pinched, or bent restricting water flow • Inlet hose connection is loose or disconnected at the dishwasher inlet • Water line connection is frozen or has low pressure in the supply line • Inlet water filter screen is clogged with sediment or debris • Inlet valve solenoid has failed or is stuck • Dishwasher door is not fully latched, preventing cycle start • Water pressure in home's supply is below minimum requirement (20 PSI minimum for North American models) • Faulty water level sensor preventing proper fill detection
🛡️

Precautionary measures

• Check that the water supply valve under your kitchen sink is fully open (turn counterclockwise to open) • Ensure the dishwasher door is completely closed and the latch clicks securely into place • Inspect the inlet hose on both ends for kinks, crimps, or bends that could restrict water flow; straighten if necessary • Verify the inlet hose connection at the dishwasher inlet valve is tight and not leaking • Turn off the circuit breaker controlling your dishwasher for 60 seconds, then turn it back on to reset the appliance • Check your home's water pressure by attaching a pressure gauge to an outdoor faucet; it should read between 20-80 PSI • Turn off the water supply, disconnect the inlet hose, and inspect the small inlet filter screen inside the connection; rinse with clean water if debris is visible • Remove and clean the dishwasher's internal filter basket and spray arms to ensure no debris is blocking water distribution • Confirm you are using the correct amount of dishwasher detergent for your water hardness level • Check that no other faucets or appliances are running simultaneously, which could reduce water pressure • If error persists after these checks, contact a professional appliance repair technician or appliance repair support service to diagnose inlet valve or sensor issues
