Dishwasher High Limit Thermostat WP661566

Help protect the dishwasher from overheating with this high-limit thermostat. Mounted beneath the tub, it responds to excessive heat by cutting power to the heating element. A failed thermostat may interrupt heating, leaving wash water too cool or dishes wet after the drying cycle. Replacing a faulty unit helps restore the heater safety circuit and proper heating operation. This temperature-sensitive switch works as a protective limit during use. Disconnect electrical power before accessing the underside of the dishwasher or removing any wiring.
