The Control Board is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. As the main controller, it regulates the operation of components like the pump motor, transmission, and clutch during all cycles. The control board uses sensors to monitor water levels and mechanical functions to advance cycles accurately.
Causes can be water damage, fluctuations in power supply, or general wear over extended usage.
Symptoms of a bad motor control board include:
- Washer not agitating or spinning clothes
- Inability to advance to different cycles
- Variable speed not working as expected
- Strange noises coming from mechanical parts
