And order the correct one from whirlpool,
Elements in older dishwashers did glow red hot if it’s getting orange that’s even hotter than red hot , did you try putting an amp meter on it? When the element is not wet it should be drawling only two or 3 A I think yours is probably drawling about eight or 10, you may ruin the control board using this element as well. John L |

Did you try normal cycle with heat dry? What about rinse aid? Either try that, or sensor, high temp and heat dry. |
