If your device has two thermostats should either be replaced. This is a working time of 15 minutes to replace them. They are secured against the deposit of a metal clip on the opening of the element. If you have a question about the possibility of obtaining the thermostat is right, you take a photo with a cell phone or digital camera and take to the plumbing shop. This way you can ensure that the right thing before heading home. Remove and replace each wire to the same screw the new thermos came out that in the former, then the new clip and you're done. You are either not expensive, I think the last one cost me about $ 20 for both.
They are both thermostats at the same temperature. Very important they are.
Thermostats should be played flat on the tank to be exact. Looking Krumm is a good chance that the tank is far enough to cause problems.
In general, you may be a thermostat has gone wrong. The smell of burning.
Edit:
You know, I'm back with more information for you, but after the reaction of others, it is better to simply replace the two numbers.
I am a problem solver, I would not. Especially because the new statistics also simply replace what the customer needed and will again.
But to replace them. Both.
