If it was right in front of me I'd be measuring the resistance of th element right on the terminals of the element (obviously with the power off ) :handgestures-thumbupleft: .
15 ohms .........element is fine.....look at the cable or crimp connections or plug.
30 ohms........one element is open( faulty)
<10MEGogms......both elements are open..extremely unlikely on a brand new element
so the plot thickens....... i just checked the ohms,
on the RHS one is at 15.3 ohms
on the LHS one is the same at 15.5 ohms, each crimp is registering 240v on the multi meter
any thing else that i can try?
should i:
a) rewire the non working one so that it is a exactly like the woking one?
b) take it back to the electrician and let him figure it the fuck out...?
