I think traces of a melted rubber icecream scoop handle are left on the inside of the heat coil of my dishwasher. Do I just run another load?

I've done the "melt the plastic utensil" thing many times. I just run another load of dirty dishes and the dishwasher is fine. I lost count how many times my late husband would do this or load the machine wrong and the plastic spoon or whatever would fall onto the bottom element.

Thanks Twinkiedooter, that worked just fine!
