  • I have just fitted a heater purchased from you and it still does not heat water. It is a ZDT6053 dishwasher and I fitted P/N 000050297618006, Is there a thermostat somewhere or are they built into heater? If so what else can it be. I goes through the full cycle but does not heat or dry. By BK - Ireland - 10 September 2018

    The PNC code is the production number and is required for some parts, However it would not stop a heater that fitted from working. The fault is likely to be either the control board or thermostat if fitted.

Just purchased and recieved heating element for John Lewis dishwasher. No fitting instructions with it. Phoned help line to ask for guidance told to try Utube for video. none found. Do you have any fitting instructions you can email me? Paul Mc

  • Rory [at eSPARES]- I think you are mistaking this unit for the loop type of element which sit inside the washing chamber. This one for the JLDWW1201 is an inline unit, totally hidden from normal view. The heater element is located right at the back of the machine (lower right when viewed from the front) and you can't gain good enough access through the front panel of the dishwasher because the water filter/sump and main pump are in the way. The best access is when the right side panel is removed. Even then, access is not very good because the heater element is horizontally installed with the far hose clip hard to get at. Poor design from a replacement point of view. By Mark - - 06 June 2011

    Hi Paul Mc. Unfortunately we don't have video advice for fitting a dishwasher element, however it's not too difficult. You'll need to remove the panel below the door of the dishwasher and remove the connections to the element from that side. Then, remove the lower basket, and you'll be able to access the element and remove it.

water not heating I think it is this element

  • On my AEG 50860, the element is at the back of the dishwasher. If you remove the bottom back panel you will see it, attached to its input/output pipes by two steel circlips. You'll need a pair of molegrips or strong pliers to undo the circlips. By Anonymous - London - 11 October 2010

    We cannot give out technical advice unfortunately. Please contact an engineer for support with identifying the fault with your appliance and for fitting of the replacement part.

Answer this question

Hello. Every so often the water does not heat up and the dry cycle doesn't either. If I run it for a few cycles without detergent etc then the heater starts working again for a week or so (I run a wash at least once a day). Then goes cold again. Obviously the element works, so what do you think this could be please?

    The most likely problem is either a poor soldered (dry) joint on the control board heater relay or burnt and failing contacts on that relay.

do i only need one

  • Disconnect unit from power source. Uncouple and plug waste water pipe. A wine cork inserted into the end will prevent leakage. If the unit is free standing turn it around so that you can access back panel. If it is an integrated unit you will have to remove it from it's recess. Remove back panel. Keep note of the type of screws and their positions. Tools required: Phillips screwdriver,vice grip, The heating unit is awkward to reach and you might find it helpful to also remove the side panels. When you see the unit it is held in place by 2 hoses and clips. Use your vice grip release clips. Fit new unit.Reverse procedure to secure replacement part. Re-assemble machine in reverse order. On start up Run machine on empty with a proprietary dishwasher cleaner cartridge. Refill rinse agent dispenser. You should be good to go. Good luck !
