Product review (5 stars): Great fix for my KitchenAid dishwasher
While a little pricey, I decided to order the complete heater kit to install on our 10 year old KitchenAid dishwasher rather than just a heating element.  The dishwasher had given us great service, but it had quit heating the dishes during the drying cycle; I found that one of the ends of the heating element had broken loose.  Fortunately it had not developed a leak at that spot.  Because it had a stainless steel tub and everything else seemed to working fine, I made the decision to repair rather that to replace. I'm glad I did.
Removal of the old element was relatively easy, but the one end that had broken off had "frozen" onto the plastic insulator nut.
It required 2 persons to break loose, one inside the tub with a pair of pliers and one under with a wrench.
Changing the circuit board was also relatively easy -- just requiring a few screws to be removed on the top panel on the door.
If you know how to install a dishwasher, then completing this fix should not be a problem.
As an added benefit, the wash cycles are now shorter, and the dishes come out just as clean (as clean as when it was new).
I did not experience the damage that one or two other reviewers wrote about.
The product was double-boxed to prevent damage during shipment.
I would highly recommend this kit to others.
