Customer Questions and Answers for Electronic Control Board (Main Control) by Whirlpool

This is the main electronic control board that manages the appliance's user interface and core cycle functions, restoring responsive controls and reliable operation when the original board fails. What it does:

• Processes user input and runs selected cycles; the board coordinates timers, relays, and electronic commands.
• Restores control when buttons, displays, or cycle selection become unresponsive.
• Can resolve erratic operation, unexpected shutdowns, or failure to start when caused by a failed control board.
• Works with the appliance's sensors and power relays to sequence functions safely.

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before any service to avoid shock or damage.
• Handle the board by its edges and avoid touching contacts; use an anti-static strap if available.
• Transfer any mounting brackets, connectors, or user-interface assemblies as needed from the old board.
• After installation, restore power and verify the control responds and cycles run normally.
