Step 3: Remove the lead that connects high limit switch to SSR.



Step 4: Set multimeter to Ohms Ω


Step 5: Place one lead on each side of the element.
For the purposes of this article I have removed the heat shrink. You can insert the leads through the end of the heat shrink to keep it intact.


Your multimeter should play a constant tone, indicating continuity, and should read 12 Ohms.
