My GE Dishwasher stopped heating. I replaced the dishwasher heating element but it still did not work. The end fix ending up being to replace the Flood Switch, which has a thermostat unit built in.

If the switch doesn't resolve your issue, check your heating element, look for any signs of breaks or cracks.
Also, I believe it's important to prevent the root cause to keep from having to replace this sensor every so often. We were, for the longest time, using the good dishwashing detergent. We ran upon hard times and ended up using the cheapest stuff we could find. After 2 months, it wasn't cutting the grease we were putting through the dishwasher and it backed up the sensor. I tried to clean it but nothing but replacing it helped.
Do yourself a favor and use good products in your dishwasher. Below are the links to products we use in our home. Try to clean your dishwasher at least once a month with the Allfresh dishwasher cleaner packs. The Cascade helps to break down all of the grease on plates. Give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments section below.

    Our dishwasher (same as the video) had basically become a dish moistener. Lots of globby gunk left on the dishes. Most of the silverware still dirty. Didn't heat the water or dry properly. Reminded me of the little girl in the commercial, "So, what does the dishwasher DO?" With guidance from this video I took out the flood switch and found it impacted with gook. Tried to wash it out but couldn't get the float to move. Called my local appliance parts store who had them in stock. It was pricier than A..... ($58) but we have company incoming so I wanted it fixed ASAP. Bought one and installed it and the dishwasher is acting like its old self. Haven't finished running the first load but I'm confident that it is fixed. Thank you for making the video!

    Thank you. This helped me. I never had a dishwasher before and I hate washing dishes but don't got no money. Then I found this gem in s ditch and accepted it as a gift from God. I expected it was broken but that's no problem. Since I'm basically a mechanical wizard, I fix everything. So it was missing it's door latch interlock switch assembly so I bybassed that and brought it life. Shit started happening but it wouldn't fill with water. I bench tested the water inket valve and it works fine. So the orange wire comes over to this part which is identical to that which you just replaced. Mine is probably jammed up or something. What would really help me is knowing how it works inside. I'm going to take it apart and clean it and gain an understanding of how it works and then plastic weld the cage back on and put it back in. And hopefully I never have to wash a dish again for as long as I live. Hurray! Thanks man dude. Video was a little long. I like videos that assume the watcher is actually not a complete idiot but I guess there are actually a surprising number of idiots. Few wizards. I did thumbs up tho. Just because you have good personality. Ok goodbye

Also, took advice about plugging the drain hole while removing and re-installing screws. Saved me a lot of grief!!! Took apart the old float...full of gunk and detergent residue which hampered the switch.🍀🍀🍀🍀

My dishwasher didn't have enough slack wire to be able to plug the new switch in, so I had to pull the whole dishwasher out and disconnect another part of the wiring harness to get enough slack to work with. It's back together now, and we're loading it up for a test run. THANKS!

    One tip I might add. While I struggled a bit to remove the wire harness from the flood switch, I was fearing that the harness itself would fall back through the hole when I tried to separate it from the switch. So, like the idea to put a paper towel in the drain hole, I put a paper towel in the hole at the bottom of the well to prevent the harness from accidentally falling back through it. I did manage to successfully unclip the harness without fear. Great instructional video!! Thank you.

    I watched your video two days ago and replaced this part yesterday. The float/flood part was definitely bad because it didn’t make a sound when I shook it. Put the new part in and the dishwasher wouldn’t start initially. I unplugged it for awhile because I decided to look underneath the dishwasher for a bit. When I plugged it back in it beeped! I ran an empty load with vinegar to give it a good cleaning and checked for leaks. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Now I have to replace the detergent dispenser. 😊

    Thanks so much for this video. I ordered this part and fixed my GE Dishwasher model number GDT580SSF2SS. The water level was lower than it should have been (top arm wouldn't turn) and the element wouldn't heat. This fixed both issues. My part also did not "rattle" like the new one so the float was stuck in it. The hardest part for me was hooking the wiring harness back on. Pay attention to the orientation when you take the old one off. This really helped me - I never would have deduced it was this part without this video.

    Great video pal...thanks for posting this. I found it very detailed, diligent with some useful tips on covering those holes with paper towel from losing those nuts. I followed to the "T" to resolve my issue to open and clean the Float Switch and put it back and guess what my washer started working like a champ again. For those who are wondering... my issue started after I cleaned my dish washer as it was smelling with all debris at the bottom. I may have twisted the flood switch hoping it would turn but guess not. It appears like it disconnected the underlying power harness and as a result my dishwasher was not filling or spraying with water but does drain okay and heats fine. Removing and putting the flood switch back resolved my issue. My Model GE GDF540HSF4SS came with our house in 2015.

    Thanks for the tip of getting all the water cleaned out first. It's a really good idea to prime it before running it through a cycle. Take a pitcher of water and dump it on top of flood switch until it's covering the flood switch. It will suck air if you don't prime or first.

    As senior citizens. we didn't want to have a repair person in the house in these c-virus times. In our household, I'm the mechanic. I browsed the web for fixes and when I found your step-by-step video with your patient and thorough instructions (funny, too), plus the positive comments, I felt confident. I ordered the float switch and nut driver. Once into the machine, I ran into a glitch. The nut bolts were frozen with a ring of calcium build-up, so I soaked them for a half-hour in distilled white vinegar. That made my repair take longer than most. But the repair was successful! Even thingI don't need to spend time pre-washing the dishes any more. Ts I didn't know were bad are now fixed. The ball inside the old flood switch didn't rattle around, so the water level had been low. Maybe that's why the glasses were smelly sometimes. Now the right water level is reached. The spray arms shoot out a heavy volume of water when I open it to add one more thing. The hot water with power boost is super hot. The hot air is really hot. And the machine is a lot quieter, too. So thanks again!

One thing I would add is to temporarily hold harness is to use a hook of a bungee cord or similar so you don't let go of it. The other is to definitely a magnetic tip nut driver.
