Heating Element Strip Circuit
Troubleshooting the Heating Element
The heating element maintains water temperature
during the wash and rinse cycles and heats the air
during the static dry cycle. (See Specifications for
heating element wattage ratings.)
To check operation, advance timer to the dry cycle,
set the selector switch for heated dry, then close
and latch the dishwasher door. Allow one or two
minutes before opening the dishwasher door and
note if heat is present.
1. Disconnect the electric supply from the dish-
washer.
2. Remove electrical connection from one side of
heating element and test continuity.
3. Measure the resistance of the heating element.
The resistance should be approximately 31 (±
5%) ohms.
