A Whirlpool dishwasher repair usually costs about the same as any other brand for the same part. Published ranges:
- Drain pump replacement: $150–$400 Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dishwasher?
- Control board / control panel repair: $150–$350 Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dishwasher?
- Spray arm replacement: $75–$150 Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dishwasher?
- Diagnostic fee: $50–$75 per visit Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dishwasher?
