Brandy September 21, 2020 I am trying to take the control panel apart to replace the user interface. I’ve unseated the 6 subpanel catches but it just won’t let loose. Can you help??
1 Answer Brandy, with the knob removed, the tabs would be the only thing holding the user control to the facia. It is common for one or two tabs to seat back into the locking position when trying to unlock the other tabs. If there are popsicle sticks available, they can be used to place in between the tabs and where they lock in place to help remove the console. Read More...
Ray January 12, 2020 for Model Number GEW9250PW1 The back of the control interface board on my dryer reads 8559431 (Rev D), but the repair manual here says the OEM part is 8558763. I can see both part number being available. Should I just buy the same P/N 8559431 or use 8558763 instead? What is the difference between these two?
Thom May 01, 2019 for Model Number GEW9250PW0 My Whirlpool Duet Dryer is 13 years old. For the past six months I have only been able to use it with manual cycles and timed drying. It would not function on automatic cycles. The last time I tried to use it, all the controls shut off and were unusable but then later came back on. I was able to complete my laundry after restarting it several times. I unplugged the unit and today tried plugging it back in and trying the unit. This time all the controls lit up and appeared to be useable again but "froze" after pressing a few times. Obviously, the controls are responding very erratically and I never know now what to expect when I try to operate the machine. Also, there is a constant faint light evident in two of the buttons. When the controls function, the dryer seems to be doing its job properly.
1 Answer Thom, Based on this information it appears that the issue will be a faulty main control board or wiring issue between the user interface and main board. Read More...
Mary September 30, 2018 for Model Number GEW9250PW1 My whirlpool dryer is not working. The buttons on the front of the dryer is making a beeping noise. I have replaced the thermist, and the main control board. From what I have researched I believe this is the part I need because the 2 other parts didn't fix it. What part number will work with my model dryer?
2 Answers Mary, Some other things that will cause your dryer not to run are WP3392519 thermal fuse and WP8283288 door switch. Don't forget to make sure you have 240 vac at the pigtail coming to the dryer from the wall. And obviously, make sure the belt is not broke this unit does have a belt switch which stops the motor from turning if the belt is broke. Read More...

Christina V. May 28, 2018 Model GEW9250PW1 Control Locked problem. The dryer has the Control Lock button lit and won't work? The control lock light came on and now the dryer will not work. To unlock the controls, I did press and hold the "END OF CYCLE SIGNAL" until the Control Locked status light turns off then release the button. It didn't work. I then unplugged the power cord for 24 hours. It worked but only good for another 30 days. Do I need to replace the control board? Thank you

Charles March 09, 2017 for Model Number GEW9250PW0 The Dryer when put in a pre set dry mode,( bulk, heavy duty etc) will not run for the stated time in the count down timer. It will run for say 1/3 less time. Is this the control panel or the user interface? How do I distinguish?
1 Answer Charles, You will want to clean the sensor bars with rubbing alcohol and then test to see if it continues to do this. If this continues then the issue would be in the main control board of the unit. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Katie. You will need to check the door switch, thermal fuse, and look for a broke belt. Either of these can cause the unit not to run. Read More...
Brent May 25, 2016 for Model Number GEW9250PW0 In the last year i've had issues with this dryer intermittently beeping while we're drying cloths. We thought the control board was getting damp so we started leaving the door open on the dryer when we were done and that seemed to help. Now the mode selector switch seems to be acting up. I've run into scenarios where, if i touch the knob slightly while it's running, it will beep repeatedly yet continue to run like normal. This AM my wife went to dry cloths and the light on the selector was stuck on "touch up". No matter what she selected and it wouldn't even start (even on "touch up") so she unplugged. I plugged it back in this PM and everything seems fine. I'm suspecting it's the switch on the interface which i assume would mean i need a whole new interface but defer to your thoughts. Thank You.
1 Answer Hello Brent. Yes, it sounds like you need to replace the interface on the unit. Read More...
