how can i replace the heating element in my westinghouse virtuoso sensortouch dishwasher model sb925. I have removed all the covers but am not sure where the element is located or what it looks like. I presume it is the element as the dishwasher does go through all the cycles but the dishes are still grubby as the water doesn't get hot and they are not dry at the end of the cycle.
Please hurry, the dishes are stacking up.

I had the same problem, and the advice to check the control module was good. I've repaired it several times now, and it works for a year or so then burns out again.

the heater is next to the pump under the unit. It is an inline heater element wrapped around the pipe coming out of the pump.

Same thing happened with mine except it wasn't the element but the control module which had a burnt out track which controlled the heating element. Unscrew the door panel, remove the module open it up and you will see burnt out track. Solder a wire onto the track to bridge burnt out section and it should work again. Alternatively it could be the heating element and like you I haven't been able to locate it. The burnt out track is a known weak point on the SB925 so check this out. Good Luck
