Expert Reply:
I would first start by making sure that there isn't a leak anywhere on the water heater that would tell the system to keep heating up water. If you've confirmed that there isn't a leak anywhere on the system, you'll next want to check and make sure that the thermostat is up to the tank and making contact on the clear plastic spot; it could be a simple bad connection like this that is keeping the thermostat from reading the correct water temperature.
I would also consider changing out the 4 Wire Control Harness # AT93312 before going straight to the Replacement Control Panel # AT91367, as it may be something as simple as a bad connection between the thermostat and the control panel that is causing this to happen.
