Why is my Whirlpool WHELJ1 Water Filtration Systems electronic control beeping steadily?
A steady beeping from the electronic control of your Whirlpool Water Filtration System indicates that the electronic control board is wet. Allow 48 hours for the board to dry, or use a blow dryer.
Why is there low water pressure at my Whirlpool Water Filtration Systems faucets?
Low water pressure at your house faucets could be due to several reasons. It might be that the sediment filter screen is clogged, or the filtration media pores are blocked. In both cases, manually initiate a Clean Rinse cycle. Also, clean the sediment filter screen. If the filter screen is frequently plugging, it may be necessary to adjust the frequency of Clean Rinse cycles.
What to do if my Whirlpool Water Filtration Systems has an objectionable taste or odor?
If your water has an objectionable taste or odor, it could be because the system is in bypass. Move the bypass valve(s) to the normal operating (non-bypass) position. Another cause may be that the filtration media pores are blocked, so manually initiate a Clean Rinse cycle.
What to do if there is no water flow to drain during Clean Rinse cycle in Whirlpool WHELJ1 Water Filtration Systems?
If there's no water flow to the drain during the Clean Rinse cycle, check a few things. First, ensure the system isn't in bypass; if it is, move the bypass valve(s) to the normal operating (non-bypass) position. Also, the drain flow control could be plugged, so clean it. Check if the drain hose is plugged or kinked; if so, straighten it. Finally, verify that the power supply is properly plugged into the wall electrical outlet and correct any loss of power.
How to fix Whirlpool WHELJ1 water with black or gray color?
If the water has a black or gray color, and it's a new system, the start-up procedure may not have been completed. Run the start-up procedure or run consecutive Clean Rinse cycles until the water color returns to normal. If it's not a new system, it could be normal abrasion of the filtration media. Manually initiate a Clean Rinse cycle.
Why is Whirlpool Water Filtration Systems water running to the drain (while unit is not in the Clean Rinse cycle)?
If water is running to the drain when your Whirlpool Water Filtration System is not in the Clean Rinse cycle, it could be due to an inner valve defect causing a leak, so replace seals and rotor. Another possibility is a crack in the distributor or riser tube, in that case replace distributor or riser tube.
Why does Whirlpool WHELJ1 Water Filtration Systems Clean Rinse cycle does not run automatically?
If the Clean Rinse cycle on your Whirlpool Water Filtration System isn't running automatically, it could be because the display reads “VAC,” meaning the Clean Rinse function has been disabled. Press and release the CLEAN button until the display no longer reads “VAC.” If the display is blank, the transformer may be unplugged from the wall electrical outlet, so check for loss of power.
What to do if Whirlpool Water Filtration Systems Clean Rinse cycle does not run at the programmed time of day?
If the Clean Rinse cycle on your Whirlpool Water Filtration System isn't running at the programmed time, it's possible that a long power loss caused the clock to lose its time setting. Reset the clock to the correct time of day.
