What to do if my Whirlpool Dishwasher won’t start or respond to commands?
- TTiffany GarrisonJul 27, 2025
If your Whirlpool Dishwasher isn't starting or responding, here are some things to check: * Ensure the dishwasher is properly plugged into the socket. * If there was a power outage, press the START/Pause button to resume the cycle. * Make sure the dishwasher door is fully closed until you hear a click. * If the cycle was interrupted by opening the door for more than 4 seconds, close the door and press START/Pause. * If the display shows F9 or F12 and the On/Off and START/Pause LEDs are blinking rapidly, switch the appliance off and on again after one minute. If the problem continues, unplug the appliance for one minute, then plug it back in.
