No.

I took a reading on it, says it's around 18 OHMS, so sounds like that's ok, but maybe it's not working correctly as it gets hot.
It's possible. It would usually have to be tested *at the time of failure* although I'm afraid I don't know what readings to expect at the various temperatures it might be sensing.

Also, the mount for the sensor was a little loose, so I wonder if that had something to do with it? Maybe it requires consistent pressure on the sensor.
I would think the sensor would have to remain in contact with the pot or pan for it to function properly.
