Good Afternoon Friend,

I understand you have a 7 year old Kenmore dishwasher, which you want to know how to check the heating element to see if it's working. Typically, this is not a do it yourself job, as there are no step by step instruction manuals. I suggest contacting your local authorized technician for further assistance. They have been trained on your appliance and should be able to diagnose your appliance and determine if the heating element is working. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-
