I have changed the heater element, but still no heat, how do I know if the thermostat is faulty, what should the resistance readings be for hot, warm and cold?

I have checked the sump pump and it is running, everything else has been cleaned.

    Hi there. The first thing you need to do is make sure your multimeter is set to the 'ohms' function and the range is set to the lowest ohms range. Attach the multimeter test leads to the connection terminals on the thermostat. For a fully working thermostat with an open circuit, the LCD should read 'OL', '0.00' or '0.5'. If it's a number higher than 0.5, the thermostat will need to be replaced.
