OK, maybe not!! But it's a persistent water slinger and I'm 2 shots down and it's winning so far. Any tech's have the magic bullet to put this water slinger back in it's place?
Appliance – Fisher Paykel GWL11US
Problem – During spin/rinse cycle water is slung out of the basket, drips down the sides & front of machine. Upon opening lid water is observed on the top of the lid and all exposed surfaces. Recirculate pump appears to run at wrong times and baskets spin speed propels water outward.
Solution 1 – Considered the re-circulate pump outlet may be too high tried to feed an additional 1/2” or so downward from original position on the right hand side of the basket. No improvement observed.
Solution 2 – Replaced control board based on advice from appliance repairman. No improvement observed.
Any ideas/solutions?

Solution 3 - Remove and inspect diverter valve, find remains of safety pin holding the diverter valve open. Remove safety pin, open and inspect diverter valve, reassemble valve and machine. Test, NO MORE WATER SLINGING GWL11.
Make rule banning safety pins in washing machine!
Fire Alarm guy wins!
