Customer Questions and Answers for Control Board by Whirlpool

Hello Frank,
You will need to pull the tech sheet and trace the wires to see where they lead. Then use the wiring diagram on the tech sheet to determine where they should connect. These connections will normally only plug in when placed in the correct position so there is very little chance of putting them in the wrong position.

Hello Bill,
This is a drive motor tachometer error. If the control is unable to properly detect motor speed, the washer shuts down. If a failure occurs during high-speed spin, the door unlocks after 3 minutes. Possible solutions:
1. Verify the shipping system, including shipping bolts and spacers, is removed.
2. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
3. Check drive motor tachometer resistance. It should be about 115 O.
4. Check wire harness connections between the drive motor and the Motor Control Unit (MCU), and between the MCU and the Central Control Unit (CCU).
5. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
6. Check the MCU by looking for operations of the drive motor.
From here, the manufacturer says if the spin basket is moving during the tests or attempted operation, replace the main control board WPW10271604. If the spin basket does not move, replace the motor control board WP8183196 or the motor WP8182793, depending on which tests bad. These tests are all on the tech sheet taped to the inside of the lower front panel.

Javier, You'll need to remove the top panel and check the connections on the CCU WPW10271604 then check the connections at the UI WPW10271608. When you plug the power cord back in, listen closely for a click noise from the CCU. If all's OK and you will need to replace the CCU.
