If you still have the stand and body , you can order a new element from black body, just bought a 18x24 for 135.00 . You can also buy some terminals and attached them inside the control pannel that connects the 2 element wires on one side and the plug wire on the other running it on high all the time as I do anyway temp control or not. I rigged up a beat up Brown 24x24 flash dryer like this.
