Customer Questions and Answers for Electronic Control by Whirlpool

Hello Christina, The F-11 code is a loss of communication between the main board and the motor board. The DL code is a door lock code. Most of the fault codes I've encountered with this combination turn out to be a bad connection between the two boards or a bad board. When the door lock code comes up with the F-11, the door latch is seldom bad but it will just go away when the F-11 code is eliminated. This is not always the case, but many times it is. If unplugging and reconnecting each connector on the board one at a time doesn't clear the code, you will have to replace the board because a relay on the board has most likely failed.
