Disconnect both wires from the element, use an Ohm meter from the element terminals to the element mount. Use a high scale. there should be no continuity. Do both terminals.
Measure between the terminals. there should be continuity.
Another item that trips GFCIs is the refer 129 volt element.
Am I doing this correct? ohm Meter set to 2000, black to base was 4, white to base jumped all over then to 1. terminals together jump high.
Meter set at 2000k, black to base jumps then 0, white does nothing reads 1, terminals together -643. Mystery solved?
