Any help is appreciated. :rolleyes: If you swap the eye element cartridge box to the other side you can determine if the problem is in the cartridge box or in the rheostat control under the control knob. If the eye overheats in the new position then the problem is in the burner cartridge box. If it doesn't over heat in its new position, then the problem is in the rheostat control under under the control knob. If you decide to scrap the unit I am looking for the grease/flame filters on a 36 inch downdraft unit.
