Whirlpool dishwasher not heating or drying
Dishes come out wet, or the machine runs a full cycle with cold water. These are the Whirlpool part numbers we hold for the components that cause it, with the number of models each one is listed against.
Before you order anything
- Confirm the cycle actually includes a dry phase — eco cycles often do not, and that is not a fault.
- Wet dishes and cold glass point to the heating element or its thermostat, not to the pump.
- Test the element for continuity before ordering; a failed thermostat looks identical from the outside.

This is a diagnostic starting point built from the parts listed for Whirlpool dishwashers,
not a service manual. Confirm the model plate inside the door before ordering: one character changes the part.
