Heating error

Disconnect power and let the unit cool completely before testing the heating element — residual heat can cause burns
Test heating element resistance — should read 10-30 ohms
Check NTC thermistor readings — ~55K ohms at room temp, drops with heat
Inspect wiring from board to element for heat damage
Verify incoming water temperature — under 120F increases element load
Pro Diagnostic Tip
i60 is a heating fault, and the single most important fact is that Electrolux dishwashers use a flow-through heater built into the pump housing, not a visible element in the sump — so check the inline heater beneath the tub, never inside it. Because the heater only runs while water is circulating, a weak circulation pump or a low incoming water temperature makes the board fail to reach setpoint and throw i60 as a secondary fault; confirm the pump is moving water before condemning the heater or the NTC thermistor that watches it.
