Hi,
With this model, the appliance will only take hot water when doing 'top up's' on a 60 or hotter cycle. The initial fill will always be cold. If it is completing the cycle then it cant be the element because it wont progress the cycle, until the temp probe senses its reached temperature. if it is definitely completing the cycle in cold water then it may be the module faulty. Hope this helps!
