Hi,
I'm only getting a couple cycle options working on the touch pad. They will chime, but I don't get the LED to come on. The ones in question are heavy and normal.
So far I ran it through the reset sequence and it cycles through everything and eventually starts to wash. I have also taken apart everything and examined the connections for corrosion, nothing noticeable.
The two screws for the latch apparently fell out as I found them in the bottom of the washer and another one was loose around the top. So the opportunity for moisture to get in there was present.
I'm kind of leaning on it being a touch panel issue, but want to make sure before I order something.
Also, is the tech sheet available for this online anywhere? I took it off during install and have since put it somewhere where I cannot find it anymore.

Here are your parts Parts for Whirlpool WDT710PAYM3 / - AppliancePartsPros.comSee the attachment for the tech sheet. The closest one I could find for your unit was a M0. It looks like the control board and control panel are no loner available. Unfortunately the tech sheet does not gice the pin outs for the control panel switches sio it is harder to check. Perhaps try the following. Connector Cleaning / Checking 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. Use electronics contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. 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. |

Was this issue ever solved? My washer is doing the same thing.

I replaced the touchpad twice and the other controller part once and it didn't fix it. We gave up and after six months of dealing with it, it just started working again. Been fine ever since so I have no clue what is/ was wrong with it.
