Symptom / Description

FAULT

Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher: Circulation pump inverter heat sink thermal threshold reached i5A; power module de-rates or shuts down.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

On Faure (Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher) models: Restricted airflow in bottom machinery compartment, sound deadening felt blanket shifted over inverter board, or high ambient heat.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED

1Reposition sound insulation felt to ensure clear airflow channels around inverter heatsink. Clear dust from bottom chassis louvers. Press and hold Départ/Pause and Annulation buttons for 6 seconds until all status indicators flash synchronously and clear fault memory.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols

!High-Voltage Safety Protocol & DC Bus: Wait at least 5 minutes after power cutoff to allow inverter DC bus capacitors (380V DC) to bleed down.
!Verify 0V DC across inverter filter capacitors before unplugging motor harness connectors.
!Keep hands clear of drive belt and pulleys during any manual rotation tng.

3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks

Slip off drive belt and spin drum/motor shaft by hand to check for roaring or seized ball bearings.
For universal motors: verify carbon brushes have at least 10mm remaining length and smooth contact faces.
Inspect motor suspension rubber mounts and drive belt tension/groove profile.

Frequently Asked Questions: Faure I5A

FAQ TREE

What does error code I5A mean on a Faure appliance?

Faure error code I5A indicates: Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher: Circulation pump inverter heat sink thermal threshold reached i5A; power module de-rates or shuts down..

What is the root cause of Faure error code I5A?

The primary root cause for Faure code I5A is: On Faure (Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher) models: Restricted airflow in bottom machinery compartment, sound deadening felt blanket shifted over inverter board, or high ambient heat..

How do I fix or resolve Faure error code I5A?

To resolve error code I5A: Reposition sound insulation felt to ensure clear airflow channels around inverter heatsink. Clear dust from bottom chassis louvers. Press and hold Départ/Pause and Annulation buttons for 6 seconds until all status indicators flash synchronously and clear fault memory.

Is it safe to clear Faure error code I5A by resetting power?

Resetting power (unplugging for 5–10 minutes) clears temporary memory errors. However, if Faure code I5A persists, the physical component causing On Faure (Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher) models: Restricted airflow in bottom machinery compartment, sound deadening felt blanket shifted over inverter board, or high ambient heat. must be inspected or replaced.

How do I test electrical resistance for Faure code I5A using a multimeter?

Set a digital multimeter to ohms (Ω). Disconnect power and test 3-Phase Motor Windings / Tacho Generator / Carbon Brushes across Across phase pins U-V, V-W, U-W on motor harness; across tacho pins. Expected nominal reading is 3Ω–6Ω (BLDC phase U-V-W) / 60Ω–180Ω (Tacho coil) / 1.5Ω–3.5Ω (Universal stator). Tolerance: BLDC phase winding values must be strictly balanced within ±0.3Ω. Hand rotation generates 1V–4V AC on tacho..

What safety protocol must be followed before servicing Faure code I5A?

Standard electrical safety protocol: 1. Disconnect 230V mains power before opening panels. 2. Verify zero voltage at test points. 3. Allow hot water or heating elements to cool below 30°C before handling.
