Shower struggles to heat up
With the shower set to 'high' the temperature control has to be wound over past half way before the water warms up. This also reduces the flow through the shower head. Turning the temperature control down to cold increases the flow again but then you lose heat in the water.
I have looked at your advice about measuring the elements and placed a meter across the 4 posts on top of the heater tank. Are these the element connections? Between the 2 on the left was 12 ohms between the 2 on the right was an open circuit.
Yes that sounds like a faulty element
