Finding Fisher & Paykel Model and Serial Tags Fast

Every accurate repair starts with the right identity string. Guessing from a sales brochure photo wastes everyone’s time.

Fisher & Paykel places rating plates where moisture and knees meet—knowing the usual spots saves cabinet disassembly.

DishDrawer and Dishwasher Locations

Open the drawer or door and check the tub edge, the rear of the door liner, or behind the toe panel area as your guide indicates. Photograph the entire sticker, not just the model line.

Refrigeration and Wine Columns

Look inside the cabinet on side walls, behind kick grilles, or near compressor compartments accessible without tools. Panel-ready units may hide tags behind the bottom grille.

• Capture model, serial, and any production codes.
• Wipe grit so characters are readable.
• Include a photo of the full appliance for context.
• Note dual tags on double ovens—each cavity can differ.

Cooking Appliances

Ovens often keep plates on the door frame or cavity edge. Cooktops may require removing a grate to see a surface tag, or checking the underside only during professional service.

Why Serials Matter

Serials distinguish production runs when parts supersede. Sharing both numbers with an independent repair service reduces wrong-part orders.

Safety note: Do not remove electrical covers just to hunt a sticker. If the plate is behind a live panel, wait for a technician.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if the sticker is gone?

Purchase records, original manuals, and installer invoices sometimes list identities; otherwise a tech may decode from component markings.

Is the SKU on the box the same as the model plate?

Not always—trust the appliance plate.

Have photos ready when you request service; it is the fastest way to align parts and manuals.
