Thanks Bearcarver. They didn't even offer me a discount on a new one.

They sent me two brand new element kits which had new connecting wires which I installed. Could you walk me through the controller solid state? Where to get one and how to replace it. Thanks
Well I received the new element and it still does the same thing. Everything turns on and lights up except for the element. So I called Masterbuilt and the only thing they would do is send me a new box but it would cost me $200.

I have a Masterbuilt 30. Having a similar problem where it was tripping the GFCI outlet and then all of a sudden the element stopped getting hot. I have the newer version with the wiring external so I checked all of that and it seems intact and clean. I'm assuming it's the element but I...
