I haven't found a schematic on the unit or in my paperwork. Is there one inside the unit or one available online? Any thoughts on what to check first? (the vent is clear) I placed the unit on "no heat/Fluff" and still have heat.

Its internal contacts get burnt and stick together. https://www.appliancepar...gidaire-faqe7077kw0.html https://www.appliancepar...gidaire-faqe7077kw0.html

Found coil broken and steel board holding the coils melted (it's a wonder it didn't catch fire. Replaced heater assembly (checked continuity OK before installing) Now my problem is no heat, so the mystery continues
