Tappan Dishwasher Screws, Nuts, Washers

The Heating Element Nut is an OEM part for Frigidaire dishwashers. It plays a crucial role in securing the heating element in place, ensuring it functions effectively to heat water during the wash cycle. This component ensures the stability and proper operation of the dishwasher's heating element, contributing to the machine's overall efficiency and performance.

Causes of a bad part can include physical damage during maintenance or installation, corrosion over time due to exposure to water and detergents, or general wear and tear that affects its ability to securely hold the heating element in place.

Symptoms of a bad Heating Element Nut include:

• Loose heating element, leading to inefficient heating or water not heating at all
• Water leakage from the heating element area, potentially caused by a poor seal
• Unusual noises during the dishwasher cycle
