Re: Whirlpool dishwasher adg 642 not working start light...
Hello Faye,
The F4 error code is a drainage error and it means that the control board did not detect a drop in the water level in the tub so it thinks it didnt drain.
The things that could cause this are a clooged filter on the pump asm, a blockage in the drain pump or hose or even a defective control board if in fact all the water has seemed to drain out of the tub.This is how ya set the diagnostic test to clear the codes and see if it reoccurs
Make sure the appliance is empty of water before running Diagnostics as it does not pump out before starting to fill and therefore you could overfill the appliance.Open the door and set the program to the first program. (Normally rinse).Turn the power off.Press and hold the start button and while holding turn the power on.After a little while the start button will flash, release the button.Press the start button once and close the dishwasher door.The machine will now run through a diagnostic routine.Diagnostic takes about 20 mins.The machine will stop during diagnostics if an error is found and will display the error code. If no error is found it will complete the diagnostics and end the program.To exit diagnostics at any time just press and hold the start button till the program is cancelled.
