Fisher & Paykel SmartDrive Phase 4-5 Code 58: water-Level sensor at adjustment limit

What 58 means

Code 58 on Fisher & Paykel SmartDrive Phase 4 to 5 top-load washers means the pressure transducer is at its maximum adjustment. The washer keeps correcting the water-level sensor reading to stay accurate, and this code appears when that correction has reached the end of its allowed range. The display shows 58. It is a warning that the sensor is near the end of its range.

Common causes of 58

Pressure transducer (water-level sensor) drifted to its adjustment limit
Motor Control Module no longer able to compensate for the sensor
Sensor needs replacement

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Empty the washer and let it drain fully. 2. Switch off the breaker for one minute, then restore power. 3. Run a short rinse with no laundry. 4. If 58 appears again, stop using the washer and call us for a sensor check.

! Why to stop there

The sensor sits inside the control housing, not reachable by owners.
Wrong water levels can overfill or underfill a load.
Written price first and a 30-day workmanship warranty.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

5858 questions

What does maximum adjustment mean?

The washer fine-tunes its water-level sensor reading over time. Code 58 appears when it can adjust no further. That is the end of its correction range.

Will my washes be affected?

Water levels may be less accurate, so loads can be filled too little or too much. That is why we advise a check. A wrongly measured fill can also waste water.

Is it related to code 72?

It is a related idea of sensor drift, but code 58 is for SmartDrive Phase 4 to 5, while 72 is on AquaSmart/EcoSmart washers. Both codes concern the water-level sensor on different washer platforms.
