I am having the exact same problem. I have to reset it about 3 times before it starts to run then I have to reset it at the rinse cycle. Thanks for the tip - will have to call that in.

It means that the control board is not sensing the water pressure (this tells the machine how much water to put in the washer) in my experience you have to replace the control board which will cost over 200 plus labor which will be over a 100

It means you have a control board fault. Call Whirlpool and tell them the fault you are getting and see if it's recalled. There's a good chance. You can install yourself or have and appliance tech do it.
Error code F1 means that the control of washer has either gone bad or about to go bad. This is a common issue with Whirlpool Cabrio washers. I have also seen them replacing the control without any charge, don't really know about the labor charges but they usually won't charge for the part. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.
