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.

154756401 Genuine Frigidaire Dishwasher Door Hinge Cable
The 154756401 is a Genuine OEM Frigidaire replacement dishwasher door hinge cable compatible with select Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Ikea dishwashers. The door hinge cable runs through a pulley system at the base of the dishwasher door and is responsible for balancing and controlling the weight of the door as it opens and closes. When a cable breaks or frays, the door drops down suddenly and heavily, opening with a loud bang — or may not hold itself up at all, straining the door hinges and latch with every use.
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications and directly replaces the older 154578801. It is sold as a single cable — most Frigidaire dishwashers have two door hinge cables (one on each side), and it is strongly recommended to replace both at the same time. Installs in under 30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The 154756401 Genuine Frigidaire Dishwasher Door Hinge Cable fixes dishwashers where the door drops open too fast, bangs loudly when opened, doesn't stay open at a comfortable angle, or where a broken cable is visible at the door hinges. Sold individually — replace both cables at the same time. Compatible with Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, and Ikea dishwashers. Replaces 154578801.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dishwasher door drops suddenly and forcefully when opened — "slams" down instead of lowering gently
Loud banging or crashing noise when opening the dishwasher door
Door does not stay open at a horizontal position — drops all the way down
Broken, frayed, or snapped door cable visible near the door hinge or base of the door
Door hinge is being damaged or strained due to missing cable tension
Uneven door opening — one side drops faster than the other
Replaces Part Numbers
This door hinge cable directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning any repair. Open the dishwasher door and remove the inner door panel by unscrewing the screws around the perimeter of the inner door. With the inner panel removed, locate the door hinge cable routing — the cable runs from a bracket near the bottom of the door, through a pulley, and connects to the door spring tension system at the base of the dishwasher. Note how the cable is routed before removing the old one. Remove the broken cable by detaching it from the anchor points at each end. Thread the new 154756401 cable through the same pulley path and re-attach it to the anchor points at both ends, ensuring proper tension. Reinstall the inner door panel. Close and open the door to verify it moves smoothly and holds itself open horizontally. Restore power and run a short cycle to confirm normal operation. Tip: Replace both cables at the same time — the second cable will likely fail soon after the first. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver (T20), needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the dishwasher door hinge cable do?
The door hinge cable is a tensioned metal cable that runs through a pulley and connects to the door spring system to balance the weight of the dishwasher door as it opens and closes. Without the cable, the full weight of the door would cause it to drop suddenly and forcefully when opened, slamming down onto the floor or straining the hinges with every use. The cable provides the controlled, counterbalanced movement that allows the door to lower gently and stay open at a horizontal position for easy loading and unloading.
How many door cables does my Frigidaire dishwasher have?
Most Frigidaire dishwashers use two door hinge cables — one on the left side and one on the right side of the door. This listing is for a single cable. When one cable breaks, the other is typically close behind since both cables have endured the same amount of use. It is strongly recommended to replace both cables at the same time while the door panel is already disassembled, saving you from repeating the repair shortly after.
What is the difference between 154756401 and 154578801?
These are the same door hinge cable. 154756401 is the current updated part number that superseded the older 154578801 during a production revision. If your dishwasher's parts diagram or old cable label shows 154578801, the 154756401 is the correct current replacement to order.
Is this compatible with Electrolux and Kenmore dishwashers?
Yes — Frigidaire and Electrolux are part of the same corporate family and share many components. The 154756401 cable is compatible with select Electrolux dishwashers and with Kenmore dishwashers built on the Frigidaire/Electrolux platform. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications. It is the exact same door hinge cable installed in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, and related brand dishwashers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
