The thermal fuse is a one-time safety device located on or near the control board that monitors internal temperature.

Once it trips, the dishwasher will show no power and will not start. The kit includes one thermal cutoff fuse with a 2-wire harness (leads extending approximately 18 inches from the fuse), one zip tie, and installation instructions. The fuse body measures 1-1\/16\" L x 1\" W x 7\/16\" H. The new wiring harness must always be used when replacing the fuse.

The thermal fuse is located inside the dishwasher door panel near the control board. Open the dishwasher door and remove all screws from the inner door panel — a Torx bit is typically required on Whirlpool-family models. Carefully lift the inner door panel to expose the control board housing. Remove the black plastic cover over the control board to access the thermal fuse — it is typically on the right side of the board with one wire connected to each terminal. Test the old fuse with a multimeter for continuity (no continuity confirms the fuse has blown). Disconnect the old fuse and its harness. Connect the new 675813 fuse using the new 2-wire harness included in the kit — do not reuse the old harness. Secure the harness with the included zip tie. Reinstall the control board cover, inner door panel, and all screws. Restore power and run a test cycle. Note: If the fuse blows again after replacement, an underlying cause such as a blocked vent, failed heating element, or faulty control board should be diagnosed before replacing the fuse a second time. Tools needed: Torx screwdriver (T15 or T20), Phillips screwdriver, multimeter, work gloves.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- FAQ --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the dishwasher thermal fuse do?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThe thermal fuse is a one-time safety device that monitors the internal temperature of the dishwasher. If the temperature rises above the safe operating limit — 98°C in this case — the fuse permanently interrupts the electrical circuit, cutting all power to the dishwasher. This protects both the appliance and your home from fire hazard caused by overheating. Unlike a resettable thermostat, a blown thermal fuse cannot be reset and must be physically replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eHow do I know if my thermal fuse has blown?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThe most obvious sign is a completely dead dishwasher — no lights, no sounds, and no response when you press any buttons, even though the outlet has power. You can confirm a blown fuse with a multimeter: disconnect the fuse from the harness and test for continuity across its two terminals. A working fuse will show continuity (near-zero resistance); a blown fuse will show no continuity (open circuit). If the fuse tests bad, replace it with the 675813 kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eWhy did my thermal fuse blow, and will it happen again?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eThermal fuses blow when the dishwasher overheats. Common causes include a blocked air vent, a malfunctioning or shorted heating element, a failed thermostat, or an electrical fault in the control board. If you simply replace the fuse without addressing the root cause, it may blow again. After replacing the fuse, run the dishwasher and monitor for any unusual heat, steam, or burning smell. If the fuse blows again, have the underlying fault diagnosed before ordering another replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pom-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-q\"\u003eWhy must I use the new harness and not the old one?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"pom-faq-a\"\u003eWhen a thermal fuse blows, the wiring harness connected to it may have been exposed to the same overheating event that tripped the fuse.
