What to do if my Whirlpool Dishwasher won’t start or respond to commands?

  Raymond DiazAug 12, 2025
  If your Whirlpool Dishwasher won’t start or respond, try these steps: * Ensure the appliance is properly plugged into the socket. * If there was a power outage, press the START/Pause button to resume the cycle, as the dishwasher doesn't restart automatically. * 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 the START/Pause button. * If the display shows F9 or F12 and both 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.

  If your Whirlpool Dishwasher is finishing cycles prematurely and the display shows F15 with the On/Off and START/Pause LEDs blinking, it could be due to: * The drain hose being positioned too low or siphoning into the home sewage system; check the drain hose height and install an air admittance valve if necessary. * Air in the water supply; inspect the water supply for leaks or other issues.
