It appears your timer/main controller/CCU has failed in this instance.

For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...
FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.
PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.
If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.
Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.
If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.
Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for answering your FREE question

Please see the following Whirlpool installation and maintenance PDF on Cabrio washers. An F1 relates to a "primary control failure".
It also has a very extensive troubleshooting section.

Hi F71
is a communication error and is displayed when there is no communication from
the User Interface to the Central Control Unit. First check the user interface
harness for continuity and then check the wire harness to the user interface
and CCU. If the drum rotates then replace the user interface, if the drum is not
moving then replace the central control unit (CCU). Hope
this helps...please post back for further assistance. Daniel
