Troubleshoot
1. Make sure the power supply is on and working.
2. If light does not come on, check that the reset button is pushed in; follow steps from previous section.
3. If the indicator light works properly but temperature does not get hot a tap, test for a plumbing crossover; shut off cold supply to heater and open hot water tap. There should be no water flowing. Any continued flow indicates a crossover which will effect the temperature and will need to be corrected.
4. Call a qualified service technician to test the resistance of the heating element (8-10 ohms). Heating element should be replaced if readings are outside these values."
