Ok, I’ll order the replacement part. How do I know which one I’ll need? I think the old one says 2040w so will that be the 2000w? First one on the list?
Out of curiosity what usually cause them to blow?

So I tested the two terminals at the top (the two inside the little plastic housing) and I’m getting no reading at all, multimeter set to 200 ohms and it’s just showing ‘1’ which is what it shows when it’s not testing anything.

Does that mean the heater is bust?

Ah ok, I’ve taken another photo, are the two terminals on the left the ones I should be checking?

So I ended up taking the motor out as I couldn’t really see which bit was the heater, I’ve attached a link to a photo, what part should I be testing? I’m not sure what terminals I should be putting the multimeter on.

Ok, I’ll do that this evening and let you know how I get on.
Thanks for your help so far.

Do I need to remove the whole motor and take out the heater or am I able to test the heater while it is still in situ?

Thanks

Thanks for your reply, how do I check the heater?
