Hi, I've had that same problem. The problem is the CCU circuit board inside at the top, back of the machine. There are cold solder joints on the circuit board where the relays and spade connectors are supposed to be soldered to the underside of the board (poor quality control at Whirlpool) You'll need to remove the circuit board and have the spots touched-up. The inputs to the circuitboard housing are keyed but it's still best to tag which wire goes where. You will break a few tabs on the housing when you take it apart (poor plastic choice by Whirlpool) It's best to remove the entire assembly then take the board out when your at the table cursing Whirlpool. If your up for the task great! if not, just print out this response and have a service person do it or take out the whole assembly and let a good appliance repair shop do it, it's up to you. This repair will also take care of an FdL code. Once the board is out the repair takes about 15 minutes. After completing mine the machine hasn't missed a beat in two years. Good Luck.
The F11 error occurs when the central control and motor control don't talk to each other.
If one of the controls was actually bad then I'd expect to see the error code every cycle. If it does, start by checking all the wiring connections from the panel to the CCU. Post back your results.
