The Whirlpool WPW10560210 Washer Control Electronic Board is your washing machines. Consider it the conductor of an orchestra, arranging the movements and sounds of different components such as the water valves, dispensers, and motor. The control board interprets your input and converts it into precise instructions when you choose a wash cycle. It tells the water valves how much water to fill for each stage, notifies the motor to change spin speed, and instructs the dispenser to release fabric softener and detergent when needed. Throughout the wash cycle, the control board keeps an eye on sensors to guarantee correct water levels, temperature control, and cycle completion.
