The Control Board is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It acts as the central processing unit that oversees all dishwasher functions such as selecting wash cycles, activating pumps and heaters, operating the wash motor and spray arms, and monitoring cycles and times.
Causes of a bad control board can include wear and tear over time, moisture exposure, or power surges that damage delicate electronic components.
Symptoms of a bad control board include:
- Inability to select or change wash cycles
- Dishwasher not starting or staying running
- Lights or displays not working properly
- Unusual noises coming from the control area
- Cycles not completing or randomly stopping
This genuine OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
