Troubleshooting Note: During testing, if this heating element triggers your circuit breaker, disconnect it and verify the breaker remains on. Reconnect and if the breaker trips again, the heating element requires replacement. For non-breaker related issues, use an Ohm meter across both terminals - proper resistance should read approximately 10.5K ohms. A reading of 0K indicates an open element. If your breaker doesn't trip and resistance tests normal, investigate alternative causes of heating failure such as: faulty Pressure Switch, clogged filter, inadequate water circulation, open control board circuit, etc.
