Answer

Hello John. The heater is a closed circuit. As long as the wires are hooked to the heater, and the cut-off, it should work. You will need to test the thermal cut-off WP3404154 and make sure it is closed. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
