Product Description
The Dishwasher Heating Element heats the water during the dishwashing cycle and helps dry the dishes at the end of the cycle. The main reason for replacing the heating element is when it has shorted out and no longer heats your dishwasher properly. The heating element lives on the underside of the dishwasher, so removing the entire dishwasher from the cabinet is recommended. When installing the element, make sure to use the existing brackets to lift the element up so it is not touching the dishwasher tub. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the dishwasher and novice repair experience. You must unplug the dishwasher or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part. Also make sure you turn off your hot and cold water supplies. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh?« Dishwasher Cleaner (item W10282479) to help remove limescale and mineral build-up that can be unsightly and affect your dishwashers performance.
