Heating Element was corroded.
It took me about 30 minutes to do the repair - took my time and could’ve done it much faster.

the nut holding on the element would not tighten. leaked at the location where the nut was located
Removed the cover at the front bottom to gain access to the nuts holding on the element. Turned off dishwasher breaker. Removed the wires connected to the element. With a 1/2" wrench, removed the element mounting screws. Removed the bottom rack. Removed the lower spray arm. Removed the element from 2 clips.
... Read morer />Removed the element. Put the new element in place. Clipped it in. Put new screws on and tightened up with a wrench. Not too much but enough to squash the washers to make a tight seal. Replaced wires. Replaced spray arm and bottom rack. Turned on the breaker. Ran it through a cycle to check for leaks. Replaced bottom cover.
Removed bottom plate and heating element brass nuts. Disconnected heating element. Connected new one then replaced brass nuts. Put bottom plate back on. Very easy.
Removed the clamp holding it to the floor and removed the c-clips holding element underneath and put new one in. Hard part was figuring out what was holding the element but since I still had the schematic drawing we figured it out. Saved a bunch on a repairman. After watching my friend install the new eleme

Is there still a video instruction for replacing the heating element. Haven't gotten past separating clips.

We discovered a leak underneath where the heating element bolts into the bottom. Will replacing the heating element solve this problem?
For model number FDB2810LDC1
Hello John, Thank you for the question. I suggest checking the Heating Element Brass Nut, PartSelect Number PS1524878. The heating element nut is used to connect the heating element to the dishwasher tub. If water is leaking from underneath your dishwasher, you may need to tighten or replace the heating element nut. Thank you for your inquiry, good luck with this repair!
Does this model dishwasher have a drying fan? Machine seems to be washing with hot water but does not dry the dishes at the end of the cycle. Would changing the heating element solve this problem?
For model number GLD4050RHS1
Hi Tom,
Thank you for your question. If the dryer is not drying dishes, the heating element fixes the issue the majority of the time, but you should also check the high limit thermostat as well. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

What is the appropriate way to give this heating element 154825001 a gentle cleaning without going to the effort of removing it from the machine?
For model number FFBD2408NS10C
Hi S, thank you for reaching out. In order to clean the heating element empty your dishwasher of all the dishes and utensils. Pour vinegar directly over the heating element and wait for 5 minutes for it to start its acidic action and then scrub it with a brush. Start a cycle of your dishwasher at the hottest settings. Finally, to get the odor out of your dishwasher, use a solution of dish soap and water to clean the inside of your dishwasher and rinse with warm water. We hope that helps!

Hi my dishwasher it's neither drying nor cleaning well the dishes, i checked and it's not heating the water, i change the thermistor and the highlimit thermostat seems to be ok, it has continuity, so the heating element which if i feed it with 110 volts get hot, but when i check the continuity it measures 0, the needle goes all the way.What else can i check?
thanks
For model number GLD2250RDC3
Hello Jorge, thank you for your question. If the heater and the thermostat have been tested and have continuity the issue could be with the main board under the unit which controls the functions, which is PartSelect Number: PS2342475. I hope this helps.

I can't seem to get one of the spade connectors off my existing element. The dishwasher was leaking around one of the leads so the connector might be corroded. Is there a clip I'm missing or should it just pull right off?
For model number FGHD2465NF1A
Hi Stephen,
Thank you for your question. For this repair you will need to use a Phillips head screwdriver and a ½ inch wrench. Before beginning any repair, please turn the water off and either unplug the appliance or turn the circuit breaker off. To begin the repair, open the door and remove the lower dishrack. Then remove the lower spray arm by pulling it straight up. Use the screwdriver to unthread the screws securing the dishwasher to the counter and then pull the dishwasher out half-way. Then remove the wires from the heater terminals. Take note of how they are positioned before removing them. Then, with the half inch wrench, unscrew the mounting nuts securing the terminals. Then pull out the old heater terminals and release the heater terminals from the retaining clips. Install the new heater element terminals into the openings. There should be 2 white dots on the heating element. Where the white dots are positioned is where they slide into to the retaining clips. Once the element has been placed into the clips, push the terminals down and reinstall and tighten the mounting nuts with the wrench. Place the wires back onto the terminals and slide the dishwasher back into the counter. Secure the dishwasher to the counter with the 2 screws. Reinstall the lower spray arm and push it down to lock it in. Place the lower rack back into the dishwasher and restore power and water to the dishwasher. If you have any questions, please let us know. We are open 7 days a week. We look forward to hearing from you!
