    Im an electronics guyengineer and i carefully inspected and tested the unit before installation and it looks like it is nearly identical to the factory oem unit

    After reading many of the negative reviews on this heating element my guess is some buyers didnt make sure that the heating element coil didnt move or come loose from shipping before installation which could cause a short or premature failure
