Customer Questions and Answers for Control Panel (User Interface) by Whirlpool

Control panel provides the appliance's main user interface, housing the touchpads and display so you can choose cycles and options. Replaces a cracked, faded, or unresponsive control surface to restore normal operation. What it does:

• Houses the touch controls and display and relays user commands to the oven/range control electronics.
• Commonly replaces panels with unresponsive or intermittent touchpads.
• Addresses symptoms such as a blank, flickering or unreadable display and visible panel damage.
• Restores a clean, readable interface for selecting functions and settings.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting any repair.
• Handle the display and overlay carefully to avoid scratching or damaging touch surfaces.
• Basic hand tools typically required; keep fasteners and mounting hardware for reassembly.
• The appliance still shows control errors after replacement, the main control board or wiring may need inspection.
