I STARTED SMELLING WIRE BURNING WITH NO SMOKE. TODAY SMOKE WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. THE PANEL BURNT AND MELTED. JUST A PROBLEM WITH THE CICUIT BOARD? OR WIRING ALSO? THANKS BUCKHUNTER

I have seen many of these meltdowns occur - usually requires replacing the wiring harness as well as the board - inspect the wiring carefully, you'll likely find smoked terminals on the wires,and possibly strips of missing insulation where the wires have imbedded themselves in the sound tar on the door

It would be awesome to see some pics of your control panel melt-down! Could you post a few? You can use a free photo hosting service, like imageshack.us, and post the links here.

It looks like the souce of the "fire" is from the Terminal W-R, which connects to the Heater. The Heater may be partially shorted to chassis (ground). Take a close look and measure the Heater's resistance and it's resistance to ground before installing the new Controller.

Great pics! Now that I see 'em, that jogs my memory-- I have seen this before. It's not common but, in the cases I've seen, they were all caused by a loose connection at one of the wire harness connectors on the board. Your top pic, with the burnt harness connectors, looks like it fits that profile. I ended up cutting the wires out of the harness connecters and crimping on new terminals to make the connections on the board. Concurrent with this was a bad thermal fuse though this needn't always be the case.

The high limit thermostat should be closed at room temp., shouldn't open until 170 F. + Fuse should be ok Did you ohm the heater to ground?
