Every electric water heater I have ever installed makes a low hum while heating. I believe this is a combination of the current going through the elements and the minerals in the water cooking on the elements. That is the best explanation I have. Hope this helps.
The elements may be burnt out you can check them by an electrical light tester. There is a lower and an upper element. If the tester lights up element is good. I hope this helps, please rate if the answer was helpful. Have a great day. Jeff
