Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Main Control Board (Part Number: OEM18082275)

1 Answer

Ralph, It appears that the wrong control board was installed per the series number. The first 2 digits of the serial number represents the series which for your model would be 12. For this series you would need to use the control board part number WPW10310240.

Linda, The most likely cause for the control panel and interior lights to not work would be a faulty HV main control board.

Sheri, The part number for the high voltage control board is W10890094 and would be the issue for the unit dispenser door flopping open and the lights blinking.

Rick for Model Number MFI2266AEW

Our ice maker recently quit. I took the ice maker out and set aside to let any possible ice thaw. That worked last time this happened. I re-installed the ice maker and I could hear water filling the reservoir. I waited awhile and heard water running again, this time it inside the ice and all over the compartment and of on the floor of my kitchen. After quickly turning off the ice maker and removing it again. I noticed that it made ice but didn't kick it out. I found the little servo motor inside was open circuit. Aha, I found my problem. Sometime later we found an "identical" ice maker from a local appliance recycler. My instincts told me to do at least a resistance check on the motor. My wife says what could possibly go wrong!? So, I plugged it in heard a fan come on and a nasty buzzing sound and the smell of something burning leaving a rather lasting stench in the freezer compartment. That motor drew approximately 8 amps rather than the few milliamps that a good one draws. The refrigerator still works everything except the ice maker. I was able to get another identical servo motor back in the original ice maker. I did a visual inspection of the 12920710 (19 in ours) board, it appeared pristine on both sides. It has the correct code for that unit leaving me to believe the board isn't the culprit. Where should I look next?

1 Answer

Rick, With the icemaker drawing 8 amps of power to the motor then the issue would most likely be in the main control board. In some cases looking a the control board will show good visually but there may be a component in the control board that has failed which is causing this issue.

Hello Tim. You hold the button down to store the code, then close the doors on the unit. If it does not store it, then the board may be bad on the unit.

Dave, You will want to make sure that the unit accepted the programming by reentering the programming mode and making sure that the code stayed. Also you will want to make sure that the compressor is coming on and running and make sure that there is no clicking from the start relay when the compressor trys to turn on.

Hello Patrick. Some of these have to be done several times. You will need to try to program it again and make sure you store the code before closing the doors.
