Have an electric hot water heater. Shut off valve above heater leaked and water got into the top electrical switch thermostat and started a small fire and the breakers went off.
Replaced that switch-thermostat and now the water gets really hot and trips the switch thermostat. Replaced the switch-thermostat on the bottom also with no help.
Checked both heating elements with a tester and they checked out OK---Didn't remove them.
What is the Problem??????
Thank you.. len in michigan
