Whirlpool 2006 Dishwasher
NEW ELECTRONIC CONTROL WITH BIMETAL TCO,
RAST CONNECTORS, & DUAL LINE BREAK RELAYS
The 2006 Whirlpool dishwasher will utilize a new electronic control that has a bimetal
TCO, RAST connectors, and dual line break relays. The control also has a 15 pin rib
-
bon connector that can accommodate multiple user interface ribbon cables.
OPTICAL WATER INDICATOR
The Optical Water Indicator (OWI) can modify the cycle time and/or water tempera-
ture based on the condition of the water. The OWI calibrates itself the first time the
dishwasher is operated and again every 250 cycles thereafter, (on average, about
once a year). It will also calibrate itself after a diagnostic cycle. If the OWI is replaced,
a diagnostic cycle should be initiated to force calibration.
