If you are getting heat on the air only, you have an issue with the control board or a short somewhere to ground that is providing a neutral for the power to the element from the motor. Do you have a meter to test with?

Here are your parts

See the attachment for the tech sheet

I am assuming that the thermal fuse that blows is on the blower and kills power to the motor.
If yes.
Odds are that the heater relay on the control board has it's contacts welded together so the heat is always on.You could check this by nplugging the unit and checking for infinite resistance between HEATER +V and HEATER RTN on the board.
up and are always energizing the relay.It could also be that the board electronics are messed a

I would also check the thermistor resistances.
