Ruben M Naperville , IL April 21, 2014 Appliance: Whirlpool Undercounter Dishwasher DU1300XTVB1 When the dishwasher would start it's wash cycle the motor would start for a second and turn off I initially purchased a door switch, thinking that it would solve the problem. I replaced the switch by removing the top 6 star screws, removing the component cover and removing one of the door switches (using a 3/16 socket) with the new one that I bought but I still had the problem. Looking at the schematic, the next part that needed to be changed is the electronic control board, which I purchased. I removed the same screws again and cover, used a screwdriver to pull back the clips holding the board, removed the connections one-by-one from the old board and reconnected them to the new board. Put everything back together, tested it and now it works like new.

Paul S Promise City , IA November 09, 2014 Dishwasher would shut off randomly throughout the cycle and have to re started through many questions it was decided it was the electronic control your expert help was fantastic!! Unplugged the dishwasher. Took the front panel off the dishwasher, unclipped the wires and removed the old control and put the new one in. (we did mark some of the clips so we knew which side they went on). Put back together and plugged it back in. Easy!! AND the dishwasher works again!!!! Just in time for the holidays!!!! Thank you so much for your help and saving a "repair man call". Read More... 9 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
Robert O Thousand Oaks , CA December 12, 2014 Appliance: Whirlpool Undercounter Dishwasher DU1345XTVQ1 Dishwasher would turn off a couple seconds after the motor would start up We ordered a new control board for the dishwasher. The swap out was very easy. I just watched a youtube video showing how to do it. All it took was a screwdriver to take the front plate off.
