To my knowledge there are no heaters or heating elements in hard drives, on the contrary there should be a heat sink with a cooling fan

How do I check my hot water element?

1)Locate the upper heating element in the top access. The heating element is above the thermostat, and all you will see is a round disc with two wires attaching to the disk.
  • 2)Set your ohm meter to the X1 or RX 1 scale to measure the continuity of the heating element. Touch each of the ohm meter probes to each of the terminal screws on the heating element. A positive reading indicates a good element. If there is no reading, the element is faulty.
  • 3)Test for a possible short in the heating element with the ohm meter. Touch one ohm meter probe to one of the heating element terminals. Touch the other ohm meter probe to the bracket that secures the heating element. If you get a reading of zero, the element is good. If there is any positive reading on the scale, the element is grounding itself and will require replacement.
  • 4)Test the lower heating element exactly as the upper heating element.
  • 5)Place the access doors back on the water heater tank, and secure them with the screws.

  • Good luck

    How do you replace the bottom heating element

    Turn off power to oven, remove two screws on heating element mount, pull heating element from wall of oven, remove two screws connecting electric leads to heating element.

    To install new element, reverse steps. Make sure screws connecting heating element to wires are very tight -- otherwise they will arc.

    Not heating up

    Hi.

    If one of the heating elements is not heating at all, then replace the heating element. You can test the heating element reading Ohms with a multimeter. You disconnect element and read impedance with multimeter set at Rx1. If the element has no continuity, and the circuit is open , then the element has blown. In that case you get no heating at all on one of the elements. Check if either broiling or baking element is not working.

    If heating is poor, then it is the sensor probe.

    In some case replacing the probe does not fix the problem. In that case it is faulty control assembly. Usually it is the temp probe.

    Here parts and diagrams.

    Regards.
