Most heating elements have a protection feature against short circuiting or excessive power demands by using a thermal fuse inline with the heating element. Often labeled PTC with a temperature rating on its small cylindrical shape. A resistance or continuity test can determine if it opened to disrupt electrical flow. This thermal fuse blows to guard against electrical damage, fire, etc. Electrical knowledge is necessary to troubleshoot electrical appliances.
