    The only way to find out is to test the element with suitable test equipment. The main pcb is just as likely to cause this fault so if the element is OK then it’s 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} certain the module has failed. 🙁

    Prongs????

    You test between the two teminals that the wiring harness plugs into, resistance should be 26.5?.

    Not sure what you mean by ‘2 setting’. ❓

    Looks like the heater may have died again, set your meter to 500v and you should get a reading of 26.5 ohms.

    Hard to know what if any problems you may have caused with your previous repairs TBH..
    A05 is supposed to be blocked filters, pressure switch faults or main circulation pump faulty.

    Merged your posts as well, best to kep it all in one place for continuity. 😉
