The Whirlpool W10473197 is a replacement electronic control board for Whirlpool dishwashers. This serves as your dishwasher, controlling all of its functions. The control board receives signals from the dishwasher's many components, including the pressure sensor, temperature sensor, and cycle selector, and converts them into instructions for other components. Essentially, it controls how long the dishwasher washes, how hot the water gets, and when to transition between cycles loading, washing, rinsing, and drying. A defective control board can cause your dishwasher to fail, run incomplete cycles, or not operate at all. Replacing a defective control board with a compatible one, such as the W10473197, can restore your dishwasher to proper working order and ensure your dishes get clean and dry again.
