Mark K Cranberry Township , PA January 25, 2016 Dishwasher heating element broke I followed the directions prescribed in the video for this part. The video mostly showcased a best case scenario for removing the old part but was helpful for finding out what to do first. Disconnect power.. I had to turn of a breaker and remove a few wire nuts for ours, no plug. Since the heating element broke so close to its end in the dishwasher I had to Hold onto it with a pair of vice-grips in order to get the plastic nuts at the bottom loosened. I also had a tight space to try to turn the dishwasher out of the cabinet in so that made it tricky. I persevered and I was able to install the new part myself and saved a lot of money on a skilled technician. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes
