Most likely the problem is a bad control board because the display dims and it's a part of the control board. - The control board Part number: AP3595759

Here is a service manual https://secured.whirlpoo...524e76/$FILE/8178007.pdfI have to agree with Gene that the display dimming is an indication that the control board is shot. There are capacitors on the board that provide power to the display, they have a tendency to leak internally, this reduces the voltage to the display, dimming it. The error says it is a keypad drive line error so it may be worthwhile trying the following: Unplug the unit Open it up Remove the ribbon cable from the keypad to the control board at the control board. Clean the edge connector. If it is the type where there is not a connector just the insulation is removed, it can be cleaned with a pencil eraser. Do not use an ink eraser as it is too abrasive. Check the tracks in the ribbon cable for hairline cracks. A magnifying glass helps here. Would not hurt to clean the connector on the board. Use electronics contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol and a tooth brush. Be gentle and do not reconnect till all the solvent evaporates. Reconnect everything and give it a try. Another possibility (long shot) would be the Control Power Transformer is not providing enough voltage out. This can happen if the secondary winding is partially shorted internally. Unfortunately they only give the winding resistance and not the output voltage, perhaps this is marked on the transformer. |
