I have a Bosch Powerstar Ae115 and the left cutout keeps tripping. It has worked great for 5 years. When i reset it, the water gets warm again(never hot as it was before). What could be causing it to trip?

Water leaking into elements. Bad PC board. Undersized breakers. Undersized main panel.
Bosch Powerstar is a computer that happens to heat water.
If your 5-year-old laptop computer was malfunctioning, you would not be surprised.
But for some reason (false marketing by manufacturers?), folks believe a tankless computer is going to last 20 years.
Moreover folks also believe tankless will provide endless hot water while saving money.
The whole idea of tankless saving money is a load of sales-BS that defies physics and common sense.
There are no service manuals... except bosch website has troubleshoot section in product manual.
Call a bosch-qualified service tech.
Go to Lowes and buy ordinary tank heater, and fix your heater today for only $250.
Tank-type electric water heater can be easily repaired and maintained by homeowner to last forever... that is a fact

I have a PowerStar tankless electric water heater, model #44-557710 and it was replaced about 3 months ago. This morning I had hot water and this afternoon I do not. When I call for hot water a red light...

Call Bosch. And exercise your 10 year parts warranty rights.
Copy following link for Bosch power star manuals:
http://waterheatertimer.org/Troubleshoot-Bosch-Tankless-water-heater.html#Ariston
Check circuit breakers, fully off and then fully back on. Test if voltage is at least 80% rating plate on unit. Check that temperature dial is set correctly. Call for service again.
Don't install tankless computer that heats water. You cannot fix this computer yourself, and they are problematic for owners.
Go to Lowes right now, spend $285 and buy tank-type electric water heater, roll it into your house, and save money, since the electric tankless computer heater costs average $100 more per year to operate than tank-type heater for average family of 4.
Tank type heater can be repaired by homeowner same day for $25 using off-the-shelf parts from hardware store. And that empowers the regular guy, and gets you off the junk tankless treadmill.

The thermal cutout pops on tank two after it shuts off. It boils then shuts off. It also turns off when taking a shower, producing cold water. I checked the ohm readings on the thermal cutout and the...

Question posted under Bosch tankless.
Question says 'tank'
Brand, model, and type heater unknown.
Elements mean electric.
'Thermal cutout pops when taking shower produces cold water' indicates tankless, since tank-type would maintain some hot water.
No error code might indicate tank-type.
Add a comment with type, brand and model number of heater for possible assistance.

Electric bill doubled last month, and we've had the Powerstar AE125 tankless electric for over a year. There are no leaky faucets.

There are a lot of other things that eat electricity. Like space heater and using ovens for heat. Heat pump.Central heat fan running all the time. House lights left on. Outside flood lights. Clothes washer using HOT water. Look around real good. It all adds up. Also the power co. may be charging more for "fuel" costs surcharges. Here in GA I'm paying a bit more now to pay for a nuclear power plant.
