I have a fisher paykel washer, it started smoking and I could smell a hot wire smell, so I turned it off. My husband said that it was the pump. So we ordered a new one. Followed the instructions to replace it, and now it won't drain. What do you think is wrong?
I know the burning was coming from the pump. I do agree that it probably messed up the control board though.

It probably wasn't the pump at fault. Call a professional.

Was the pump that you took out burnt or showing other signs of having overheated? If it burnt out badly then it may of damaged the control board as well.

remove the blockage that caused the first pump to burn out
