Adrian,
Let me jump in here till Rudy can set us straight.
No you will not hear anything with the AH running on electric only. If you watch your ammeter gauges above the driver you will see a jump up when running on electric. If the jump when you turn it from AC to HEAT is around 20 amps, it is probably working correctly. Alternatively, Rudy can tell you how to test each element using a clamp on ammeter.
It involves removing an access panel and clamping on the feed wires to the elements.
One other thing. That LO indication is not a fluid level meter. It is a temperature indicator and is saying that the AH is below operating temperature.
Hope this helps!
