I have the KIT-RSNSb kit with steam control which I installed on my Silvia just under a year ago. It's been working fine up until a week or so ago when the machine started tripping the mains after the temperature reaches a certain level when the steam switch is flicked. From another forum I was advised to steam at a lower temperature which I did (120C instead of my usual 140C), with success - no tripping. Yesterday, however after steaming, it tripped the mains but only after I flicked the steam switch off. Do I possibly have a faulty SSR or is it perhaps the heating element causing a leak to ground at the higher temps? I want to rule out either of these and although it's not a sure fire way of testing, I have already checked the resistance between the element terminals with a multimeter and it seems fine. Is there a way of testing the SSR myself before I spend any money by taking it to a repair place?

Thanks

Here are some information you can check:

Diagnose for not heating properly (For KIT-RSNSb, please check this file first)

How to test SSR (for you dual-channel SSR, you need to test one channel by one channel):

Thanks for the links. Just out of curiosity, since I've messed around with the AH1 and LH1 settings, what should the settings for these be?

For Fahrenheit degree controller, AH1 is 283, AL1 is 284 by default. For Celsius degree controller, AH1 is 139, AL1 is 140 by default.

If you like to play with AH1 & AL1 settings, you need to make sure AL1 is 1 degree higher than AH1.
