Bummer took ohm reading on heater coil and it says it is close to what it is supposed to be. Should be 40.3 ohms and reads 39.8 ohms. Not sure if it makes a difference if it is hot or cold. Running on gas so the tube is hot. Might go to take a reading on new one prior to buying.

Mine tested good also but was causing my GFI to trip. I replaced it based on advice from others on this forum and it fixed the problem. It was hard to remove because it was rusted in place. I had to use a long set of needle nose pliers and move it back and forth an 1/8 inch at a time while pulling up on it. It came out after awhile. After cleaning the rust out of the slot the new one slipped right in while wiggling it back and forth. If you plug the heating element directly into 120 volts and it does not get hot you know it is the heating element.
