If your Whirlpool Water Dispenser isn't producing soft water and the salt level isn't dropping, it could be due to a salt bridge in the storage tank. Refer to the “Breaking a Salt Bridge” section to break it. Alternatively, the bypass valves might be in the bypass position; move them to the service position.
What to do if my Whirlpool WHES33 has no soft water and the display is blank?
If your Whirlpool Water Dispenser isn't providing soft water and the display is blank, check for a loss of power and correct it. Reset the electronic controls and then use the RECHARGE NOW feature. Also, check if a fuse is blown, a circuit breaker has popped, or a circuit is switched off. Replace the fuse, reset the circuit breaker, or switch the circuit on, and then use the RECHARGE NOW feature. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the electronic control board may be malfunctioning, in which case you should replace it.
