Problem
This KitchenAid dishwasher in San Ramon, CA, wasn’t heating. A heating fault can turn into an expensive repair, so finding the failed part comes first.
Diagnostics
On this machine, the problem was the heater element. The photos show the tub and two curved elements laid out beside the dishwasher.
We also see failed power relays on dishwasher control boards. That can cost more than the element replacement this machine needed.
Solution
We replaced the heater element. The control board did not need replacement on this job.
Result
The heating fault was repaired with a new element. If your KitchenAid stops heating, a diagnostic visit establishes which part failed before you approve a repair price.
