It shorted on warm up too.I'm sure there must be a micrcopic crack in element, I will check. Has anyone sent their pre 2013 Rancilio for a service / upgrade to boiler with removeable element?
Is it also worth checking if it is just the amount of power surging through the socket, like maybe trying to get it in the cooker ring?

Sounds more likely to be either the pump itself or the pump causing a leak which is shorting something. If you’re handy with a multimeter you can check the continuity across the element terminals.
