For Whirlpool Electronic Control Board (Part Number: OEM18040017)

Bob B. for Model Number KUDR01TJBL0

I can change type of wash selection I want if I run my finger across the board. Example; from heavy to normal to quick rinse. No matter what setting I get to the light to come on I cannot get the dishwasher to start. It does run for the drain and reset buttons as it pumps out fine in its normal 2 minute cycle but it will not start up in any of the selected wash settings. Again, if I push the button selector for the wash cycle I want it will not change but it I slide my finger across the selector for wash cycles it will change but still will not start. Do you think my problem is the control panel?

1 Answer

Bob, Yes the issue is in the control panel WP8270229, not the control board. several of the keypad circuits have failed and are inputting information to the control board and causing it to "lock up" and not operate.

Hello Wei. It sounds like the control panel is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit.

Tony,

If the control board is charred is a very good likelihood that this is your issue. While there could potentially be other issues with the unit the control board would be the first part to replace then test the unit.

Gene,

To get the unit back to operational use the control panel 8524445 would need to be replaced. The user interface has a button on it that gets depressed for start but there is a piece on the control panel that actually pushes on the button when you push start. This is the piece that has broke and requires a new control panel to repair.

Hello Brian. I did find a tech note on this that may explain. "Per Factory This Sub Should Only Have 3 Terminals The P4(Y)
Terminal Which Was On The Original Control Has Been Removed And Not Used On This Control."

Hello Toni. Try resetting the boards by turning of the breaker for about 30 minutes. If the issue continues, replace the control board in the unit.

Hello David. You will need to test the heater and if it is good, replace the control board on the unit.

Jessy for Model Number KUD102FRSS1

The first problem in my dishwasher, the lights on the touch pad blinking and then I kept touching the button and the HEAVY DUTY CYCLE ran good and lately I tried to run the RINSE ONLY CYCLE and run good also but other button still not working. I thought the control panel is the problem and I order part AP3868446 and when I connected this, it still was not working. No power and the lights on the key pad, but if I connect the old control panel there is light or power but some button is blinking and not working. KUDI02FRSS1

Hello Jessy,
Since you tried replacing the control panel already, you have a bad electronic control board WPW10084141. From the description, both parts may be at fault.
