Dishwasher Heating Element

The Heating Element is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It is responsible for heating the water during the wash cycles and for drying the dishes after the rinse cycle. Proper functioning of the heating element ensures optimal cleaning and drying performance.

Causes of a bad heating element can include mineral buildup from hard water, electrical faults, or general wear and tear over time. Damage to the heating coil or connections can also impair its functionality.

Symptoms of a bad heating element include:

• Dishes not drying properly
• Dishwasher cycles taking longer than usual
• Water not heating during the wash cycle
• Error codes related to heating issues

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This heater assembly restores heat production in electric dryers so clothes dry efficiently. It replaces a failed heating element and helps return the appliance to normal drying performance. What it does:

• Heats air passing through the dryer drum so laundry dries during operation
• Replaces a burned-out or open heating element that causes no heat or weak heat
• Addresses long dry times and extended cycles when the element isn't functioning
• Works with the dryer's blower and thermostatic controls to maintain proper air temperature

• Disconnect power at the breaker before starting any repair; this part carries live voltage during operation
• Handle the heating element carefully to avoid bending or damaging the coil
• Inspect fuses, thermostats, wiring, and connectors while replacing the heater to ensure full repair
• Follow the appliance manufacturer's service instructions for disassembly and reassembly

Restore proper heating and drying performance with this dishwasher heating element. It warms wash/rinse water and helps dry dishes at the end of the cycle so loads finish cleaner, drier, and on time. What it does:

• Heats the water during wash/rinse to improve cleaning performance
• Assists drying at the end of the cycle
• Typical symptoms of a failed element include dishes not drying, sanitize option not achieved/indicator not illuminating, unusually long cycles, or visible damage/open-circuit on the element

• 1 heating element

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the existing element to cool before servicing
• Remove the toe-kick to access wiring and mounting hardware beneath the tub
• From below, disconnect the element wires and remove the retaining hardware; lift the element out from inside the tub
• Feed the new element through the tub openings, secure from below, reconnect wiring, and run a test cycle to check for leaks and proper heating

This heater is the electric heating element assembly that generates heat for drying cycles, restoring proper drying performance and cycle temperatures when the original element fails. What it does:

• Converts electrical power into heat to warm the air used during drying cycles
• Commonly linked to no-heat or low-heat symptoms and prolonged drying times
• Can cause the dryer to overwork or run longer when the element is damaged
• May trip thermal fuses or breakers if shorted or grounded

• One heater assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Access typically requires removing the dryer cabinet or rear access panel; follow OEM instructions
• Inspect and replace related safety parts (thermal fuses, high-limit thermostats) if they show failure
• Test the new element for continuity and secure all electrical connections before reassembly
