It may sound silly but weirder things have happened. If yes then- Did you check both thermostats (hi-limit thermostat lower side) and (thermal cut-off upper side) on the heater casing for continuity? Did you check the cycling thermostat (the two large connections) on the vent casing for continuity? The thermal fuse if bad won't allow the unit to start, so that's likely not it. If they all check out and you see no loose wiring you may have a bad timer or a bad centrifugal switch on the drive motor.
