Brilliant thank you, struggled to find how to do this on the internet, until I found your video:)

I bought the new element ad thermostat but the gersey it's not working,what could be a problem

[@njongomatole6037]

It may happen that your thermostat does not send the heater to the element BCz it's have to strike the element to warms up the water

[@nickidewet7711]

Brilliant, thanks!

[@Spoedvarkable]

[@marcusreddy6296]

Please advise what could be wrong if geyser is draining too much electricity .

[@ecologicaltime]

check that it goes off at times, if not check your overflow water to see if geyser is over heating

[@hjvdb6829]

If your meter doesent give a noice what will it say on the meter if its working and what if its not working?

[@ecologicaltime]

working = low ohms = 0Ohm, not working = open circuit MegaOhm

[@KoolKidKimza]

If the thermostat is in the geyser... Do I carry on with the same method

[@ecologicaltime]

yes

[@nickidewet7711]

@@ecologicaltime you would have to switch off power to the geyser first before doing the continuity check. If it does not get continuity, it could be the element or the thermostat, so you'd have to remove the thermostat to confirm which one.

[@tejanpillay8245]

@@nickidewet7711 great point. Have to remove thermostat to confirm if it is indeed at fault or not

[@alexbowman7582]

Careful with the lighter, if they’re lit for too long they can explode.
