This main electronic control board governs the appliance's user interface and cycle functions, restoring responsive controls and correct operation when the original board fails. Replace a faulty control board to correct erratic or unresponsive behavior. What it does:

• Receives input from the console and sends control signals to relays, valves, motors and sensors.
• Restores normal cycle selection and timing when a failed board prevents the appliance from starting or completing cycles.
• Addresses symptoms like unresponsive or non-working buttons, blank or erratic displays, and unexpected program changes.
• Interfaces with safety and feedback sensors to coordinate appliance functions.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before replacing the control board to avoid shock or damage.
• Handle the board by its edges and avoid touching circuit traces or components; the board is static-sensitive.
• Note connector locations or photograph wiring before removal to ensure correct reassembly.

Symptoms of a bad rack wheel include: 

• Difficulty pulling out or pushing in dish racks  
• A rack that gets stuck and does not fully recline or rise
• Rack trays that cannot pivot to different levels during a cycle
• Reduced wash effectiveness from poor rack positioning

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with some Maytag, KitchenAid, and GE dishwashers.
