Is the heating element on the whole cycle on the 17-22 series? Otherwise you couldn't open the BM's.

Heating Element Used As A Bi-Metal Load
Hi Jon, KA 17 and 18 series DWs did not have water heating elements on any but the TOL models, although they could have used the dry heater if they wanted.
The water heater element would not need to be on for the whole cycle for it to be used to open the DD, the timer is clever enough to just turn on the heater for 60 seconds while sending the heaters load current through the DD BM it wants to open.
