[QUOTE="michael8554, post: 542400, member: 34375"] IMO the timer should still rotate despite being switched to the Permanent position ? Perhaps this is fed from the Night Immersion switch, which appears to be unpowered ? Can you locate a breaker in the main CU that feeds the water heating system ? Is it in the OFF position ? Despite the timer not working/set to Permanent, somehow the water is being heated for timed periods - is it exactly an hour every time ? If the duration is actually random, perhaps only the top thermostat is powered, and switches heating off when that small volume of water is up to the temperature set by the thermostat ? But bottom line, the small volume of hot water suggests the problem lies with the bottom element circuitry. It isn't being powered, or the element is open circuit, or the thermostat is set too low.
