SOURCE: 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.

SOURCE: How do I test the heating elements on Bosch Powerstar AE125 with multimeter

Product manual shows electro-mechanical thermal cutout page 9 but offers no troubleshoot steps except to say that overheating is cause.

Test elements:
Remove both wires off element.
Set multimeter to read ohms.
Watt and volt rating appear on side of each element.
Ohm = Volts squared divided by wattage.
For example:
Assume 240Volt circuit (240 Volts squared = 57600)
Assume 9000 watt element > check side of element for rating.
So 57600 divided by 9000 watt element = 6.4 ohms

Have you de-limed this unit?
Is there a check valve causing closed system in the plumbing, that might also cause decreased water flow?
Are there reduced-flow faucets or clogged aerators?
What happens when suspect cut-out element is no longer connected? The unit should continue heating.

SOURCE: I have a Bosch Powerstar AE125 where the left

I had the same problem. I fixed it by changing out the Control Board. After that I have had no problems. I had a older model board in mine... Had a defective diode. The newer board does not have the diode on it.

Trust me it is the Control Board!

Left red button has to be constantly reset. Also, water gets extremely hot

It should be producing hot water at the temp it was set at such as 120-140 degrees. If it is exceeding this one of the safety devices maybe disconnecting it. Thermal control might need some servicing. See what temp it's set at then put a thermometer on a near water outlet to see what's going on. Good luck.

I have a bosch ae115tankless waterheater - the neon light will flash when turned on but when i reset the breaker it will work? any ideas/

Flashing light means bad control unit..or your flow is too low. If you have a couple fixtures on, and its still blinking, the board needs to be replaced.

I have a Bosch Powerstar AE125 where the left cut-out trips. This problem began at the end of last winter to the point I was resetting multiple times a week. During the entire summer I might have had to...

I suppose I would ascertain that the supply voltage is the same there as the outer cutout connectors. If equal, the breaker can be faulty. Worse case the heater has an intermittent short causing overload to trip out.
Fix It!

The easiest thing to do would be to call Bosch and just ask for a new heater for free. The other option is to call Bosch and have them send you all new elements. If there is power, there should be heat of some kind.

PowerStar AE125 seems to have failed

You have a blown element. If you purchased the heater, call Bosch for technical assistance, and the unit should be under warranty. The grey matter your getting is the magnesium that the elements have in them.
