Bought used, it's worked fine for years. Two weeks ago I had no hot water, and checked to find the breaker tripped. Turned it back on, and it works for between 5 minutes and an hour before tripping again. No leaks. I replaced the elements, same problem. I replaced the thermostats, still tripping the breaker. Replaced the breaker. No joy. I've checked and cleaned the ground wire. I've scoured the internet for the solution, and the only thing I can think is that it's somehow screwed up when switching between elements. Does anybody have ideas? I'm so frustrated I'm ready to beat it with a hammer. via /r/DIY http://ift.tt/2qCGVZd
