If you have the added recall update, its working. Just to clarify-The recall, other than adding the sheet metal containment, added the mentioned thermal fused link and disk to flue. Its on the 12v feed to refer. In the event of a fire or abnormally high temps either safty link would cut 12v feed to refer-effectivly shuts down refer- irregardless of mode its in, wether in 12v,110v or gas.
Though eyebrows or control panels can & do go bad-not often. Id also suspect heater if ALL fuses are good.
All of the 110v heaters I've seen the wires are sealed at the heater side, run directly to board J7 & J8 teminals. Id test at the board for power J5 & J6 verfying 110 input, output to heater j7 J8. If power, unplug 110v cord to refer (sticking meter leads in board ok but not fingers), then unplug the 110v heater leads. Test leads from heater for continuity/resistance- bout 44+/- ohms. You need a multi meter. If no power at J7 & J8 double check the 5amp fuse
