Heating Element

Some dishwashers use a heating element to heat the dishwasher during the drying cycle. If the heating element has failed, the dishwasher won’t dry dishes properly. To determine if the heating element has burned out, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the heating element does not have continuity, replace it.

Here's the part for your machine, thanks for providing the model number ;-)

Hi @Fritz Mehrer,

Just wondering if the Hi Limit Thermostat may be faulty preventing the heater element from being turned on.

The page tells you how to test it.

Located as part #F29 from this page
