On a GSW electric water heater that has two 4500 watt elements.
Both elements when the power is on shows full voltage when probed with the volt meter. 200
When I pull one wire off the element and turn to the ohm meter scale and probe the element I get a reading the same as I get doing the same procedure on the new element.
I assume that means the element is good since its the same reading as a known new element.
What is causing the element to not heat the water.???
Is there a anothe test I can do??
Both reset buttons are pushed in.
