![]() ![]() Is the designer still alive? If so, I want him shot.Who came up with the dumbass design that when you turn the dial to a normal, albeit high, position, it breaks the water heater? Wouldn’t it make more sense to not let the dial go that high?.This would upset me less if I had hot water meanwhile! The thing is still under warranty for parts, but I have to pay shipping, and wait for it to come, and pay a plumber hundreds of dollars to install the f-ing thing. The Whirlpool helpline says I have to replace the gas valve. I turned it back down but now the machine is offended or something and won’t work at all. That happened (I think) because I turned the heat dial all the way up. My Whirlpool gas water heater is giving me the dreaded “four blinks” signal. Be sure you first fix the problem that caused the overheating - usually you need to drain the tank (which is recommended as periodic maintenance anyway). You can save delay and $hundreds in plumber fees by fixing the part that’s gone on strike. Executive summary: Once it has detected a “water too hot” event, the gas valve will never work again - unless you know how to reset it. ![]()
