My Kenmore dishwasher kept tripping its' breaker. I removed the bottom
kick plate and reset the breaker. I turned on the dishwasher and there was a charge and spark and the breaker was again tripped. I looked inside and noticed wires that have burn marks. One wire is white w/ red, the other white w/ black. The wires attach to what looks, to me, to be a capacitor. There are two of these and the screw holding them both in place seems to run through to the inside of the machine where the top of the screw helps hold the heating element in place.

I have not been able to track down this "capacitor" looking part. It seems that the wires are okay. Would I just be looking for this part, or is something else going on?
