Heavy current required for instant hot water may be switched via a relay or contacter which may be faling. One way to diagnose may be with cover off and careful listening and visual inspection, but a risky process for inexperienced DIY'er's ??. Pro time?
It runs off 220v, meaning there are two "hots" and a ground.
The 190tc uses TWO sets of 220v at 40amps each.

The boiler temperature setting is kept at a position lower than you need. Go to the boiler. There will be a small box with a knob. The knob generally has 3 settings marked. Cold or Vacation, warm and Hot. If you inspect it closely you will also see a rd dot marked on the body. If my guess is right, the red mark and warm align in your case. Turn the knob a little towards the hot. However, test your setting after a little time and adjust to the best setting that suits you.. If your temperature controller is in good working condition, water could get really hot. So, tely everyone in the house that you have changed the setting to hot. Other wise you know, severe scalding could occur. If this did not work you may need to change the thermostat. The element seems to be work because the water is heating up at least a few degrees.
