Our Kitchen Aid dishwasher was blowing thermal fuses and when I checked the heater element and I had ohm readings of 57 to 95. The wiring diagram indicated a reading of 35. I order a replacement, installed it and everything worked fine for 2 weeks before it started blowing thermal fuses. Using my multimeter, the readings were again up to over 50 on my meter.

I called and was shipped a replacement element. Before I installed I tested and readings of 35 to 117 in repeated tests. Is this correct or is there something else I need to look for.

I greatly appreciate your thougths and help.
