2000x running cold following freeze up

Hi ...my 2000x froze during the cold weather recently .The bottom connection to the heater tank had come off but when i re-fitted it there is now only cold water coming from the unit.There seems to be no powere from the micro switch which controls the three power levels to the tank. I notice there is also some kind of water pressure sensor inbuilt in the switch...but this seems to be OK...i am getting the high temp warning light even tho there is only cold water coming out...any suggestions ?

 I think you may have a faulty Thermal Cut Out

A faulty TCO will have no continuity across the two terminals (The black thing on top of the heating tank)

Therefore a good TCO will have power at both connections and a faulty TCO will have power at only one.

(The function of the TCO is, if the water over heats it cuts the power off to the elements)

See Video.
