Our dishwasher has stopped warming the water, is there an element on these that can be replaced? I've taken the panels off but it's not obvious which part heats the water.

Looking online it seems these are quite prone to PCB failure so it could be that.

Thanks for looking.

Element is probably under the bottom tray.

would need a model number to be sure but the heater in most aeg/electrolux are in the back rh lower corner. Its a side off job to see it (unplug first).
Its a toss up between a failed heater or the pcb but sometimes it can just be a failed solder joint on the pcb which can be re soldered.

My dishwashers is only plumbed to hot.

The heating element in mine is for drying.

Not an AEG though.

I found the element and the PCB, can't see any dry joints on the PCB, all wiring is OK.

Thanks for the replies.
