Stop waiting for the repair guy. You can
0:02
fix your Whirlpool dryer control board
0:04
at home. Here's how. First, safety.
0:06
First, unplug your dryer before you do
0:09
anything. Now, if your Whirlpool dryer
0:11
isn't starting or the lights on the
0:13
control panel aren't working, the
0:15
control board might be the problem. To
0:17
check, remove the back panel of your
0:18
dryer. Look for the control board. It's
0:21
a small circuit board, usually near the
0:23
top. Inspect it for any burnt spots,
0:25
broken wires, or loose connections. If
0:28
you see damage, you'll need a new
0:30
control board. Order the right
0:31
replacement using your dryer's model
0:33
number. When it arrives, carefully
0:35
disconnect the old board and plug in the
0:37
new one, matching up the wires exactly.
0:40
Put the back panel on, plug the dryer
0:42
back in, and test it out. If it works,
0:45
you just saved yourself a bunch of money
0:47
and hassle. So, next time your Whirlpool
0:50
dryer acts up, remember you can handle
0:53
it. Fix your Whirlpool dryer control
