I have a Whirlpool Cabrio for 18 months and now everytime I start the washer I get an F1 error. How do I make it stop having the error?|||Try unplugging from the wall and leave it unplugged for a while. That may reset the computer chip. Worth a shot anyway, and works for other appliances and electronics.|||There is no need to replace your Whirlpool Cabrio if you get the F1 code. Hiding within your washer is a secret coded booklet that has all the error codes that don't appear in the user's manual.
F1 means the central electrical control unit, i.e. the onboard computer, has fatally failed. Unless you have both the skill and tools to test the guts of this computer, you're stuck replacing it. Good news, three screws at the rear to expose the control panel, then unplug one unit; plug in the new one. Just to be on the safe side, color code all the plugs and receptacles. At wholesale, the part is $175.00. CODE 083009 part W10189966 CNTRL-ELEC
