Hello All:

I have a six year old KitchenAid Dishwasher KUDR01TJBL0, serial
FL5125226.

It is a very mediocre product, but that is a subject for another day.

What I am experiencing is flaking of black, crusty coatings from the
heating element. It seems to be cracking off and blasting itself
throughout the dishwasher.

I have researched this issue, and it seems that the 'round' elements
are the issue, and Whirlpool has an upgrade kit.

So, kind experts, is this all I need to fix my problem? Is it a job I
can tackle in a Saturday afternoon, or shall I call a service
company?

Finally, do you recommend that I cut my loss on this very mediocre
product and invest in a new Bosch dishwasher?

Sincere thanks for your time in replying, and have a nice day,

Bill
