WD05X30818 General Electric Dishwasher Heating Element Assembly

Dishwasher Heating Element Assembly Description:
This heating element assembly is a genuine replacement part for various GE dishwashers, including models from Cafe, General Electric, Monogram, Haier, Hotpoint, Profile, Fisher & Paykel, and Sears-Kenmore. Positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher tub, the horseshoe-shaped element plays a crucial role in heating water during the wash cycles and aids in drying the dishes once the cycle is complete. If you notice that your dishes are not being cleaned or dried effectively, it might be due to a failing heating element.

To install a new element, make sure that the existing one is cool before removing it. Disconnect the element by sliding out the tabs and then place the new element in the same position. This straightforward replacement should help your dishwasher return to its optimal washing and drying performance. You can check the functionality of the 120V heating element circuit on the dishwasher's main control board. The specifications include a resistance of 18 ohms when wet and 23.4 ohms when dry, with a current draw of 6.7A wet and 5.125A dry. This part is specifically designed for compatibility with certain GE and Hotpoint dishwasher models.
