Fixing the Dishwasher

Hi.

I'm fairly certain the heating element is broken in my dishwasher as it generates no heat (and therefore there's no steam) but on the manufacturer website all I can see resembling a heating element that fits the model is this:

shop.zanussi co uk/product/140002106015/Dishwasher+Circulation+Pump+Heater+Motor

Is this a heating element? Other dishwashers actually have a 'Heating Element' in them and they're about £40 on the site, such as this:

shop.zanussi co uk/product/50297618006/2000+Watt+Dishwasher+Heating+Element

Unfortunately I cannot post links so have removed the punctuation between and behind .co.uk

I've included details of the appliance below:

Make: Zanussi
Model: ZDT12011FA
Product Code: 91153910700

Thank you.

    Going by the drawings it does seem to be all in one & £180! It may be a faulty thermostat, broken wire, control module....

    Here is your first link. Not very helpful of the web site as no image available!
    And here is your second link. I think this is the image.

    That's what I assumed, thanks, and yeah it's a bit steep! I'll take it out and have a look in the morning, see if there's anything obvious.

    And thanks Le, that's a great help. Hopefully I can find one for £89.99 too! :D
