Paul B Milford , OH January 09, 2016 Appliance: Model WHIRLPOOL "ELITE" 7 flash hetaer failure Replaced the control panel because most of the mounting "stanchions" were broken off and the latch didn't always catch. Also replaced the two micro switches as a precaution. So far, the machine has worked flawlessly for several cycles. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes
