WDF520PADM7 Whirlpool Dishwasher - Overview

Hello Jon, thank you for your question. There are a few parts we would reocmmend testing first to determine if they have failed. They are the PartSelect Number PS11743423 Thermostat, PartSelect Number PS8260087 heating element, PartSelect Number: PS11770231 pump and motor and the sensor PartSelect Number PS12070543. If those parts are tested and are fine, the issue would most likely be with the electronic board. I hope this helps.

Hello and thank you for writing. It certainly sounds like it could be a faulty heating element PS8260087 and/or possibly a faulty high limit thermostat PS11743423, you should check for signs of damage, and replace if necessary.

Hi Michael, thank you for contacting us. We would recommend checking the door latch, part number PS11756967, to fix the issue. It is at the top of the dishwasher door and keeps the door closed when the dishwasher is running. If this is faulty, the dishwasher may not start the cycle. We hope this sorts out your problem!

Hi Steven, I would check the inlet valve PS12578165. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair!
