Fault Finding Tests 6A – 8
Test 6A (3 – 15L models)
Test 6B (25 & 40L models)
Disconnect the two wires from the boiling
water element and using a multimeter on the
ohms scale, measure between the two
element terminals. The following result should
be obtained:
3L models (1.8kW element):30 – 34 Ω.
5L–15L models (2.4kW element):22 – 26 Ω
Disconnect the two wires from the boiling water
element and using a multimeter on the ohms
scale, measure between the two element
terminals. The following result should be
obtained:
25L models (3.6kW element): 14 – 18 Ω.
40L models (4.8kW element): 10 – 14 Ω.
Test 7
Test 8
Disconnect wiring at inlet solenoid valve and
using a multimeter on the ohms scale,
measure between the two terminals of the
solenoid. The following result should be
obtained:
3.1 – 4.2 kilo ohms.
Using a multimeter on the AC voltage scale,
measure between the two terminals of the inlet
solenoid. The following result should be
obtained:
230-240 Volts AC. (Note:- Solenoid wiring must be
connected to do this test)
