    Hi Dave, first thing to would be to double check that your new element is connected properly - it might be worth removing it and fitting it again.  Also, check all the electrical connections to make sure they are definitely fitted correctly. Failing that, it could be a sensor or the PCB - if this is the case you'll probably see an error code or flashing lights on the control panel. The last thing it could be is burned wires; check all wires for signs of burn damage. Good luck!
