Possible Causes
Loose UI ribbon cable, Failed user interface board, Corroded UI connectors, Main control board communication failure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Disconnect power before removing the control panel or display housing.
Steps:
- Access UI board: Remove the control panel trim (often at the dispenser or inside the fresh food compartment) to expose the user interface board.
- Inspect ribbon cable: Ensure the flat ribbon or harness between the UI and main control is fully seated and not damaged.
- Check for moisture: Look for signs of condensation or water intrusion around the dispenser UI. Dry thoroughly and correct any leaks.
- Replace UI board: If the cable is good and E10 persists, replace the user interface board with the correct Whirlpool part.
- If a new UI does not resolve the issue, the main control board may be defective and should be replaced.
