Richard J Watertown , SD March 10, 2023 Dishes not dry at the end of the cycle. The heating element is not heating. Performed diagnostic tests. Had code for no heat. I performed a continuity check on the element and found it to be bad. I replaced the Heating Element per the video directions they provided on their website. I also replaced the Hi-Limit Thermostat since I was in that area already. The dishwasher is repaired for a fraction of the cost of what I would have paid a repair person to do the work.

John S Fredericksburg , VA May 13, 2017 Appliance: Model 665.12783K311 No code help Kenmote elite dishwasher dead display. No power. No response from key pad. Went down list of things. Replaced thermal fuse even thought my continuity test checked out. Replaced main control board next. Did noticed a slight discoloration in one spot on board and was extremely hot to touch at that spot. With new board same problems persisted. Order key pad input contro panel next. Now dishwasher works. I'm certain main board shorted out and then shorted keypad controlled. It's crazy keypad cost more than main board. But with a totally dead unit diagnosing and repair was difficult. Actual replacing parts was with ease.i just aspect $350 to repair a 3 year old dishwasher that was only 729$ new. Diagnostic on this repair was longest and hard. Actual parts replacement was easy.

Jeffrey C Pittsford , NY August 08, 2022 Appliance: Whirlpool Dishwasher WDT750SAHZ0 Stopped heating water and heat drying I didn't even take these parts out of their boxes. Make sure you run diagnostics on your dishwasher before ordering any parts if your heating has stopped! Also you can check the resistance of your heating element and high-limit thermostat to see if they are the issue. (running a diagnostics will reset the heater on your dishwasher, but if there is a different issue it will end up stopping the heat again).
