Deciphering Whirlpool Binary codes can be challenging, especially when the lights blink rapidly, requiring you to add up the digits. However, once you get the hang of it, the process becomes much more manageable. To make it easier, these interactive visuals will help you quickly interpret the codes.

That said, it’s essential to refer to the technical documentation for the specific unit you’re working on to determine the exact meaning of an error code. While most codes are similar across models, some units have unique error codes. Never assume that a code means the same thing across different units—always verify with the correct documentation.


This page is designed to have a variety of different UI configurations for your viewing pleasure. There are a lot of different model numbers that share the same UI, so find the UI that closely resembles the unit you’re working on.
