Kenmore Elite Dishwasher Heating Element
Genuine Whirlpool part
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: W10703867
The Heating Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This element is for heating the water to the required temperature and for the drying cycle, allowing your dishes come out clean and dry. It's positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher tub, where it heats the water and aids in the drying process by evaporating moisture from the dishes.
Causes of a bad heating element include mineral buildup from hard water, which can insulate the element and reduce its efficiency, or electrical issues such as a burnt-out coil.
Symptoms of a bad heating element:
- Dishes not being cleaned properly due to the water not reaching the optimal temperature.
- The dishwasher not drying dishes effectively
- The dishwasher taking longer to complete cycles
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
