Hi Jim
If your dishwasher got shorted out within first minute it has nothing to do with the heating element because it is not powered up yet
The dishwasher starts with fill cycle for about 11/2 minute, then the wash pump will get engaged.
The first thing I would check are the wires under the dishwasher and inside the door for a damaged insulation and possible shortage.
Post your findings, please.
Good luck.
Gene.
