Description

This factory heater restores controlled heat in the appliance's heating or defrost circuit so cycles complete correctly and performance returns to normal. Replacing a failed heater helps resolve temperature-related issues and reduces extended run times. What it does:

• Generates heat for the unit's designed function (wash/dry assist or defrost), depending on model
• A failed element can cause no heat, extended cycles, or temperature-related error codes
• Result in dishes staying wet or detergent not dissolving (dishwashers)
• Lead to frost/ice accumulation that doesn't melt during defrost (refrigeration)
• Often tests open (no continuity) when defective

What's included:

• 1 heater

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water supply if applicable
• Access and mounting vary by model—refer to the product's service information
• Note wire positions; make firm, original-style connections and avoid stressing terminals
• After reassembly, run a test and check for leaks where the heater passes through the tub (if applicable)
