XPARTCO BPV-31 Refrigerator Refrigerant Piercing Valve / Line Tap Valve Kit
The XPARTCO BPV-31 is a universal bullet piercing tap valve (line tap valve) used to quickly access a sealed refrigerant line on refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, dehumidifiers, and other HVAC systems — without soldering or brazing. The valve clamps around a copper refrigerant line and, when the valve stem is tightened with the included hex key, a hardened piercing needle punctures the tubing to create an access port. This lets a technician connect a charging hose or gauge to check pressure, pull a vacuum, or add refrigerant to a system that has no factory service port. It's a staple tool for appliance service and DIY refrigerator/freezer repair.
Fits 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" outside diameter copper pipes with the included adapters. The access port connection is a 1/4" male flare fitting. Rated to 500 PSI maximum, with a patented permanent gasket providing over 180 inch-lbs of sealing force — around 50 times the sealing area of a standard O-ring type valve — pressure tested at 250°F. Corrosion-resistant metal (zinc alloy) construction with a piercing needle engineered for concentricity and hardness to seat perfectly every time. Non-positional mounting requires no separate adapter valve and only 2" of clearance for installation. Each kit includes the piercing valve, a hex key wrench, and 2 adapters. It replaces AP4502525, BPV31, BPV31D, GPV14, GPV31, GPV38, GPV56, and MPV31.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Refrigerant Safety Warning Working with sealed refrigerant systems can expose you to pressurized refrigerant, which can cause frostbite, eye injury, and other harm. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves before piercing any line. Refrigerant handling may be regulated in your area — certain refrigerants require EPA certification (in the US) to purchase and handle. Never vent refrigerant to the atmosphere. This valve is NOT rated for R410a systems (too high pressure). If you're not experienced with refrigerant systems, have this work done by a qualified HVAC or appliance technician.
⚠️ Installation Steps — Clean the Line First Put on safety glasses and protective gloves. Identify the copper line you want to tap and confirm its outside diameter (1/4", 5/16", or 3/8") so you can select the correct included adapter. Clean the section of pipe where the valve will mount to prevent debris from entering the refrigerant line. Ensure the composite seal "O" ring/gasket is properly in place inside the valve. Place the two halves of the valve saddle around the pipe using the appropriate adapter insert for your pipe size. Install and evenly tighten the socket-head screws to clamp the valve body firmly around the pipe. To pierce the line, turn the valve stem clockwise with the included hex key until the needle punctures the tubing, then back the stem out (counterclockwise) to open the port and allow flow. To connect a gauge or charging hose: remove the cap, attach your hose to the 1/4" flare port, and open the valve by turning the stem counterclockwise. When finished, close the valve (turn the stem clockwise) BEFORE disconnecting the hose, then reinstall the protective cap. Note: the compact valve needs only 2" of clearance around the pipe. Tools needed: Included hex key wrench, safety glasses, protective gloves. (Note: to attach a gauge directly to the BPV, a retrofit valve adapter may be required — not included.)
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a bullet piercing valve used for?
A bullet piercing valve (line tap valve) lets you tap into a sealed copper refrigerant line to create an access port — without cutting, soldering, or brazing the line. Most household refrigerators and freezers are sealed systems with no factory service port, so if you need to check the refrigerant pressure, pull a vacuum, or add refrigerant, a piercing valve gives you that access quickly. It clamps around the pipe, and a needle pierces the tubing when you tighten the valve stem. It's commonly used in appliance repair and HVAC service, and by DIYers reviving a garage refrigerator or freezer that has lost its charge.
Which pipe sizes does this fit?
The BPV-31 fits 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" outside diameter copper pipes using the included adapters. Before installing, measure or confirm your refrigerant line's outside diameter and select the matching adapter insert. Getting the size right is essential for a proper seal — an incorrectly sized adapter won't clamp tightly and can leak. If you're not sure of your line size, measure the outside diameter of the copper tubing with calipers or a pipe gauge.
Can I use this on an R410a system?
No — the BPV-31 is NOT rated for R410a refrigerant systems. R410a operates at significantly higher pressures than older refrigerants like R-12, R-22, and R-134a, and exceeds the safe working pressure of this valve (500 PSI max). Using it on an R410a system is unsafe and could result in valve failure or refrigerant release. This valve is appropriate for lower-pressure systems using R-12, R-22, R-134a, and similar refrigerants. For R410a systems, use service equipment specifically rated for R410a pressures.
Is a piercing valve a permanent solution?
Piercing valves are best thought of as a service-access tool rather than a permanent fixture. They work reliably for tapping into a line to diagnose, vacuum, or charge a system, and the BPV-31's patented gasket provides a much stronger seal than basic O-ring valves. However, for a long-term permanent service port, many technicians prefer to cut the line and braze in a proper Schrader service port. Some technicians have concerns about the very long-term sealing of any piercing valve left permanently on a line. If you leave the valve installed, make sure the stem is closed and the cap is in place, and check periodically for leaks.
Do I need EPA certification to add refrigerant?
In the United States, handling many refrigerants (and purchasing them) requires EPA Section 608 certification, and it is illegal to intentionally vent refrigerant to the atmosphere. Regulations vary by refrigerant type and jurisdiction. The piercing valve itself is a tool that anyone can install, but the refrigerant handling that follows may be regulated. If you're a DIYer, research the rules that apply to your specific refrigerant and location, or have the refrigerant work done by a certified technician. Always recover refrigerant properly rather than venting it.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket universal service tool built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. The BPV-31 is a universal industry-standard bullet piercing valve design (also sold as Supco BPV31 and equivalent), manufactured from corrosion-resistant zinc alloy to match the fit, 1/4"/5/16"/3/8" pipe compatibility, 1/4" flare port, 500 PSI rating, and patented-style sealing gasket of the standard BPV-31 line tap valve. It replaces AP4502525, BPV31D, GPV14, GPV31, GPV38, GPV56, and MPV31.

XPARTCO W10804664 Washer Motor Run Capacitor (50µF)
The XPARTCO W10804664 is an aftermarket replacement motor run capacitor for Whirlpool-built top-load washers. This capacitor works alongside the washer's motor to help it start and run efficiently — it briefly boosts the voltage delivered to the motor at the moment it's commanded to start, giving it the extra push needed to overcome its own inertia and begin turning smoothly. Once the motor is running, the capacitor continues supporting steady, efficient operation for the duration of the cycle.
Rated 50 MFD (µF) at 250VAC. Over time, the dielectric material inside a run capacitor breaks down from repeated startup stress and heat cycling, which reduces its effectiveness or causes it to fail outright. A failing capacitor produces a clear symptom: the washer motor hums but won't start, or the motor makes noise during use without turning properly. Left unaddressed, a struggling motor can also run hotter than normal and wear out faster than it should. It directly replaces W10278117, 4247711, W10666221, W10804664VP, AP5982844, EAP11703494, and PS11703494.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10804664 Washer Motor Run Capacitor fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Crosley top-load washers where the motor hums but won't start, or makes noise during use without running properly. Rated 50 MFD (µF), 250VAC. Replaces W10278117, 4247711, W10666221, W10804664VP, AP5982844, EAP11703494, PS11703494. Capacitors store a dangerous electrical charge even after power is disconnected — always discharge before handling.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer motor hums but won't start
Motor makes noise during operation without turning properly
Washer won't agitate or spin because the motor never gets up to speed
Motor that struggles to start under load but may run fine once already spinning
Washer motor running hotter than normal

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Capacitors Store A Dangerous Electrical Charge Unplug the washer or shut off the house circuit breaker before beginning. A capacitor stores an electrical charge even after power has been disconnected, and that charge can deliver a serious or fatal shock. Before touching either terminal, discharge the capacitor by shorting its two terminals together using an insulated-handle screwdriver, or by using a proper capacitor discharge tool with a resistor. Never short the terminals with a bare metal tool held with your bare hand. If you are not fully comfortable performing a capacitor discharge safely, have a qualified appliance technician replace this part instead.
⚠️ Shut Off Hot And Cold Water Supplies Before Starting Wear work gloves. In addition to disconnecting power, turn off the hot and cold water supplies before beginning disassembly. Access to the capacitor typically requires removing the washer's console and outer body panels — remove the mounting screws and release any spring clips securing the body to the frame, using a putty knife to gently pop them free. Locate the capacitor, usually mounted to the rear panel or motor bracket area. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. After confirming the capacitor is fully discharged, disconnect the wire terminals from the old capacitor, remove its mounting clip or bracket, and pull it free. Install the new W10804664 capacitor in the same position, reconnect the wire terminals, and secure it in its mounting clip or bracket. Reassemble the body panels, spring clips, and console in reverse order. Restore water and power, then run a test cycle through both agitate and spin, confirming the motor starts promptly without humming or hesitation. Tools needed: putty knife, Phillips screwdriver, insulated-handle screwdriver or capacitor discharge tool, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer motor hums but won't start. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is the classic symptom of a failing run capacitor. Since this capacitor's job is to boost voltage to the motor at startup, a weak or failed capacitor can leave the motor energized and humming without ever getting the push it needs to actually begin turning.
How do I know I have the right MFD rating for my washer?
Check the rating printed directly on your original capacitor's body — this listing is specifically 50 MFD at 250VAC. Whirlpool uses several different run capacitors across its washer platforms, including a 45 MFD version and other 50 MFD variants with different part numbers, and installing the wrong rating can leave the motor under- or over-supported. If you're not sure, contact our support team with your model number.
Do I need to shut off the water supply just to replace a capacitor?
It's a precaution taken because accessing this capacitor typically requires removing the washer's outer body and console, which involves working around the same general area as the water inlet connections. Shutting off the water first prevents any accidental spills or pressure issues while the body is open, even though you won't necessarily be disconnecting the water lines themselves for this specific repair.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the 50 MFD, 250VAC electrical rating and mounting configuration of the original W10804664 run capacitor used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, and related top-load washers.

XPARTCO W10810403 Washer Lid Switch Assembly
The XPARTCO W10810403 is an aftermarket replacement lid lock assembly for Whirlpool Cabrio and Maytag Bravos XL top-load washers. Positioned on the underside of the washer lid, this assembly detects whether the lid is open or closed and locks it shut during the wash cycle, preventing the washer from spinning or agitating — and preventing the lid from being opened — while the cycle is running. This is a safety mechanism as much as a functional one, keeping users from contacting moving parts or being splashed by water or detergent mid-cycle.
This assembly includes the lid lock mechanism and its wiring harness, and ships with a white bezel. Many of these lid locks also contain an internal fuse as part of the switch circuit — if that fuse blows, the symptom isn't limited to lid-related errors; it can prevent the entire control board from powering up at all, since the switch sits in the same circuit path. A failing lid lock typically shows up as the lid not closing or locking properly, the washer failing to start, the cycle stopping mid-way, or in more severe cases, a completely unresponsive control panel with no lights at all. It directly replaces AP5984435, PS11722981, W10648012, W10787878, W10697793, W10787880, AP5999414, and PS11731620.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10810403 Washer Lid Switch Assembly fixes Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Bravos XL, and select Kenmore 600/700 Series top-load washers where the lid won't lock, the washer won't start, the cycle stops mid-way, or the control panel is completely unresponsive with no lights. White bezel. Replaces AP5984435, PS11722981, W10648012, W10787878, W10697793, W10787880, AP5999414, PS11731620. If your original lock has a grey bezel, you need part number W10861642 instead — same mechanism, different bezel color, so match the color of your existing lock before ordering.

Compatibility
This lid switch assembly is compatible with select Whirlpool Cabrio and Maytag Bravos XL top-load washers, and also fits select Roper, Admiral, Hardwick, Jenn-Air, Estate, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Modern Maid, Amana, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Caloric, and Ikea washers built on the same platform, including model numbers such as MVWB855DW1, MVWB865GW1, MVWB835DW3, and MVWB765FW4.
Note — bezel color and lid lock platform both matter: This assembly has a white bezel. If your original lock has a grey bezel, order W10861642 instead — same lock mechanism, different bezel color. Separately, Whirlpool has used several distinct lid lock designs across its Cabrio-era washer lineup, including a different 3-wire electronic lock (our W11670519 listing) used on other Cabrio/MVW models. These are not the same part despite both serving Cabrio-platform washers. Always verify your full model number and match your original lock's exact part number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Open the washer lid and locate the lid lock assembly mounted on its underside, typically secured with a couple of screws. Photograph the wiring harness connection before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws, disconnect the wiring harness connector from the old assembly, and pull it free. Install the new W10810403 in the same position, reconnect the wiring harness connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the lid locks securely, the washer starts and completes a full cycle, and the lid unlocks normally once finished. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My control panel has no lights at all. Could the lid lock really cause that?
Yes, and this is a less obvious but documented cause. Some of these lid lock assemblies include an internal fuse as part of the switch circuit. If that fuse blows, it can prevent the control board from powering up entirely, producing a completely dark, unresponsive panel rather than a symptom that's obviously tied to the lid. If your washer has no lights and no response at all, this lock assembly is worth checking alongside the more obvious suspects.
My old lock has a grey bezel. Can I still use this part?
This specific listing has a white bezel. If your original lock is grey, order part number W10861642 instead — it's the same lock mechanism, just finished with a grey bezel to match certain washer trim colors. Using the wrong bezel color won't affect function, but it will look mismatched against your washer's lid.
Is this the same lock used on all Cabrio washers?
No — Whirlpool has used more than one lid lock design across its Cabrio-era lineup. This W10810403 is a distinct assembly from other Cabrio/MVW-platform locks, such as our W11670519 listing, which uses a different 3-wire electronic locking design. Always match your exact original part number rather than assuming any "Cabrio lock" will fit, since the mounting and electrical interface can differ between designs.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the locking mechanism, wiring harness, and bezel design of the original W10810403 lid lock assembly used in compatible Whirlpool Cabrio, Maytag Bravos XL, and related top-load washers.

XPARTCO WH01X29528 Washer Door Lock
The XPARTCO WH01X29528 is an aftermarket replacement door lock assembly compatible with a wide range of GE, GE Profile, Café, Haier, Hotpoint, RCA, and Monogram front-load washing machines — as well as select GE UltraFast 2-in-1 combo washer/dryer units. The door lock is a safety mechanism mounted at the front of the washer where the door closes — it automatically engages when the door is shut, securing it closed for the entire wash and spin cycle so water and detergent can't spill out and cause injury. It also signals the control board that the door is safely locked, which is what allows the washer to start filling and running. When the door lock fails, the washer typically won't start, won't lock the door, stops mid-cycle, or throws a door-related error code.
Rated 120 VAC, 60Hz, 16A. Failure usually comes from physical damage or normal wear over time. As a direct replacement for the GE WH01X29528, it also replaces AP6985313, EAP12749276, PS12749276, PD00060769, and 4958749 (additional production markings: ITW 12070-71, V13305, 0024000128GE). Installation is straightforward with no wiring modifications — remove the old lock and install the new one, typically in 10–15 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Open the washer door — if the door is stuck locked because of a failed lock, you may need to access the manual release. Peel back the rubber door boot/gasket from the front panel edge near the lock to expose the door lock assembly — on some models this requires releasing the spring-loaded wire clamp that secures the boot with needle-nose pliers. Photograph the wire harness connection before disconnecting anything. Remove the mounting screws holding the door lock assembly to the front panel. Reach in and pull the assembly out through the door opening far enough to access the wire connector. Disconnect the wire harness plug from the old assembly (no wiring modifications are needed — it's a direct plug connection). Snap the new WH01X29528 assembly onto the wire harness plug until it clicks firmly, position it in the front panel opening, and secure it with the mounting screws. Press the rubber door boot back into its groove and reinstall the spring-loaded wire clamp if applicable. Restore power and test by closing the door and starting a cycle — confirm the door locks, the washer runs, and the door unlocks at the end. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My GE washer won't start and shows a door error — is this the part?
Very likely, yes. GE front-load washers won't start unless the control board receives confirmation from the door lock that the door is closed and locked — it's a safety interlock. When the door lock fails, the washer either won't lock the door, won't start, or displays a door-related message on the panel. If your door appears to close normally but the washer won't begin the cycle (or stops shortly after starting), the door lock is the most common cause. Replacing the WH01X29528 typically resolves it. If you've already replaced the door lock and the problem persists, the issue may be the main control board instead.
I replaced the door lock and it worked briefly, then failed again — what's wrong?
If a new door lock works for a short time (seconds to minutes) and then the washer goes back to showing a door error, the problem may not be the lock itself but the main control board that powers and monitors it. A control board with a failing door-lock circuit can damage or fail to properly drive the lock, causing repeated symptoms even after replacing the lock. Some customers report an electrical smell or humming from the lock in these cases. If you've replaced the door lock (especially more than once) and the door error returns, the main control board is the next component to investigate. Contact our support team with your model number for the correct control board part.
Does this fit the GE UltraFast 2-in-1 combo washer/dryer?
Yes — the WH01X29528 is used on select GE UltraFast 2-in-1 combo washer/dryer units (such as the PFQ97HSPV0DS) in addition to standalone GE front-load washers. The combo units use the same door lock design as the front-load washers in the GFW/PFW families. As always, confirm your specific model number against the compatibility list before ordering, since GE uses different door locks across different washer generations.
How do I open the door if it's stuck locked and the washer won't run?
If the door is stuck in the locked position because of a failed lock, first make sure there's no water in the drum (run or complete a drain cycle if possible). Then unplug the washer and wait a few minutes — some GE models release the lock after power is removed. If it's still stuck, most front-load washers have a manual release mechanism accessible from behind the lower kick panel at the front of the machine — a tab or cord you pull to manually disengage the lock. Consult your model's manual for the manual release location. Once the door is open, you can proceed with replacing the lock.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured from durable, moisture-resistant materials to match the electrical specifications (120 VAC, 60Hz, 16A), connector configuration, mounting, and door-locking function of the original WH01X29528 door lock used in compatible GE, GE Profile, Café, Haier, and related front-load washers and combo units.

W10518394 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dishwasher Heating Element
The W10518394 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool replacement dishwasher heating element compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Kenmore Whirlpool-built dishwashers — including the WDF, WDT, ADB, and related series. The heating element is mounted at the bottom of the dishwasher tub and serves two purposes: it heats the wash water to the temperature required by the selected cycle (improving cleaning performance and helping detergent dissolve and work effectively), and it provides drying heat at the end of the cycle to evaporate moisture from dishes during the heated dry phase. When the element fails, dishes come out wet, glassware is spotted or cloudy, and wash performance noticeably degrades.
This is an oval-shape element rated 1200W, approximately 15"L x 3"W x 3"H. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications, the W10518394 directly replaces W10518394VP, W10134009, W10441445, 8194250, 8563007, 8563464, 8572861, 2977737, 1381534, 8268559, A3-06, AP4325066, AP5690151, EAP9605070, PD00012075, PS1960583, and PS9605070. The element mounts to the bottom of the tub with large nuts on the underside — the rubber washer (Whirlpool 717273) and heater nut (Whirlpool 8268548) are sold separately if they need replacement. Important: after installation on most Whirlpool dishwashers, you must run the diagnostic mode to reset the control board to recognize the new element. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The W10518394 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dishwasher Heating Element fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Kenmore dishwashers where dishes come out wet, glassware is spotted, wash water isn't getting hot, or the heated dry phase isn't working. Oval shape, 1200W, ~15"L x 3"W x 3"H. Genuine OEM. Replaces W10518394VP, W10134009, W10441445, 8194250, 8563007, 8563464, 8572861, 2977737, AP4325066, AP5690151, PS1960583, PS9605070. Diagnostic reset required on most Whirlpool dishwashers after installation. Rubber washer (717273) and heater nut (8268548) sold separately if needed.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dishes coming out wet at the end of the cycle — element not providing heat for the drying phase
Wash water not getting hot enough — poor cleaning performance even with proper detergent
Glassware coming out cloudy or spotted — water not reaching temperature for proper detergent activation
Heated dry cycle not working — no warm air at the end of the cycle
Element visibly burned through, broken, or showing arcing damage
Multimeter continuity test on the element shows an open circuit (no continuity)
Heating element showing the wrong region glowing red (only a 6" segment heating rather than the whole element)
Detergent not fully dissolving — water too cool to activate the formulation

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Don't Touch Element with Bare Hands Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the water supply at the valve under the sink before beginning. Wear work gloves and safety glasses to protect your hands and eyes. Handle the new heating element only by the metal end terminals or its support brackets — do NOT touch the heating coil itself with bare fingers; skin oils can cause hot spots that shorten element life. From inside the dishwasher tub, the element is visible at the bottom — it's the looped metal coil running along the floor of the tub. Remove the bottom rack and any debris to clear access. To access the wire connections and mounting nuts, you'll need to either reach underneath the dishwasher from the front access panel or, on some installations, pull the dishwasher out partially. From underneath: disconnect the two wires from the bottom of the element terminals (photograph the wire connections first to ensure correct reinstallation). Remove the plastic nuts holding the element terminals in place. From inside the tub, lift the old element straight up and out. Inspect the rubber washers — if they're cracked, hardened, or torn, replace them now with new 717273 washers. Install the new W10518394 element through the same mounting holes, replace the rubber washers if needed, and secure with the plastic nuts (or new 8268548 nuts) from underneath. Reconnect the two wires to the terminals matching your original orientation. Important: after restoring power, run the Whirlpool diagnostic mode to reset the control board — on most models this is done by pressing any three buttons in sequence three times and closing the door, which initiates a ~30-minute diagnostic cycle. The new element will not be recognized by the control until this is done. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 5/8" wrench, 5/16" nut driver, 3/4" wrench, work gloves, safety glasses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are my dishes coming out wet — is the heating element the cause?
Most likely, yes — wet dishes are the classic signature of a failed dishwasher heating element. The element provides heat for the dry phase, evaporating moisture from dish surfaces. When it fails, dishes simply air-dry, which leaves them wet (especially plastics and the interior of inverted glassware). To confirm: with the dishwasher unplugged, disconnect the wires from the element and check continuity with a multimeter. A working element shows continuity; a failed element shows an open circuit (infinite resistance). Also check that you have the heated dry option enabled in your cycle settings — some users mistakenly turn off heated dry and then assume the element has failed.
After installing the new element, the dishwasher still isn't heating — why?
On most Whirlpool dishwashers, you must run the diagnostic mode after replacing the heating element so the control board recognizes the new part. To enter diagnostic mode on most Whirlpool models, press any three buttons in sequence three times rapidly, then close the door — this starts a roughly 30-minute diagnostic cycle that resets the heater logic. If you've installed the new element correctly and it still isn't heating after the diagnostic cycle, also check the high-limit thermostat (a safety component that can stop power to the element if it has failed open). Confirm your wire connections are tight on the element terminals as well.
How is the W10518394 different from horseshoe-shape heating elements?
The W10518394 is an oval-shape element about 15" in length. Some Whirlpool-platform dishwashers — even similar-looking models — use a horseshoe-shape element instead, which has a different mounting hole pattern and shape that won't fit positions designed for the oval element. The two are NOT interchangeable. Before ordering, compare your old element to a photo of the W10518394, or check your dishwasher's parts diagram. If your old element is horseshoe-shaped, contact our support team with your model number and we'll help identify the correct horseshoe-style element for your dishwasher.
Do I need to replace the rubber washers and nuts when installing this?
Not always — they're reusable as long as they're in good condition. Inspect the rubber washers (Whirlpool 717273) for cracks, hardening, or tears. If they're brittle or torn, replace them now while you have the element out — they prevent water leaks from the tub at the element mounting points. The plastic heater nuts (Whirlpool 8268548) are usually reusable unless visibly damaged. Both parts are sold separately if you need replacements. Reusing torn rubber washers is the most common cause of leaks after this repair, so don't skip the inspection.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications. It is the exact same heating element installed in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Kenmore Whirlpool-built dishwashers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
