Default Heatmat isn't working ?!

I noticed recently that my on/off thermostat was constantly lit up, so I checked the temperature of the mat and there was no heat coming off it at all...

so I plugged the heatmat into the mains to check if it was the heatmat but the heatmat started to heat up!

what could be the problem????
