I need to replace the element in the above machine as the thermal fuse has blown, SIOS gives me a part number of 481225928843 which no one has in stock, as this is a Fisher and Paykel machine re-baged (I think – going by all the F & P labels inside) would 5045175117264 (connect part no) be the same part? It looks very much the same from the images but I would like some confirmation if possible please.
I can’t tell by the Whirlpool numbers but there are only two different heaters for the F&P dishdrawers. 528616 fits all the variants of the DD603 and 522090 fit all the DD605 versions. IIRC the rating plate should show the original F&P model number. I would bet on it being the earlier 528616 part.
It does look like the same part so i will go with it and hope that it is especially as it is half (or less) the price of the whirlpool one and not special order.
