Re: whirlpool dwf b10 bleeps and flashes 11 times
Optical Water Indicator playing up. Start by removing the filter and identifying the dome in the sump at the 3 o’clock position. Ensure that is spotlessly clean. That usually does the trick.
If it doesn’t, the unit itself may be at fault. Wiring can be another issue – oxidisation of connector block and edge connectors is a regular problem. A good clean and a pinch of the connector solves lots of problems.#
Computer could be at fault, but haven’t come across that as an issue yet.
Power off if you feel the urge to dive underneath.

Re: whirlpool dwf b10 bleeps and flashes 11 times
Thanks for that.
In the 3 o clock position is a black circular grill type object. Is that what needs to be cleaned? If so, is there a trick to removing it?Re: whirlpool dwf b10 bleeps and flashes 11 times
Ah…… The black grid is the water indicator. This a diaphragm with a microswitch behind it. It is prone to sludging up with fatty deposits – plenty of hot water and an old toothbrush may clear it. The microswitch spring is prone to failure.. The unit is a twist fit from underneath if you need to remove it – power off first.
Replacement unit is HERE if you decide to replace it.
Curious about the error code though………

Re: whirlpool dwf b10 bleeps and flashes 11 times
Hi,
My dishwasher is a Diplomat ADP8322 (which i think is a rebadged whirlpool unit) & has been playing up recently. When you start a cycle it is fine for a minute or so then it starts beeping, the rinse light comes on & the light next to the start button flashes 11 times, pauses then repeats.
Is this likeley to be that same fault?
I do have a black grid looking thing at 3 o clock too.
The first time this happened i cleaned out all of the filters etc & it fixed it, but now no matter what i do it just keeps beeping.
All help would be appreciated.
Thanks
