I'm selling my house, and the buyer's inspection detected that the
heating elements weren't putting out sufficient temperature ...
diagnosis, one or more elements bad. So ... I removed the front panel
from the (1994) Janitrol A49-10 air handler and immediately saw that
one of the two elements was indeed burned out.

Haven't called an HVAC place yet ('cause it's a weekend), but looking
on-line, the closest part number I can come up with for the heat strip
kit is HSK1037488 ... which really doesn't look like the B10374-68 part
that's in there now. Also the new part has 2 plastic connectors on the
ends of the various wires .. and the old one has individual metal
connectors on each wire.

Can anyone help me out ... is this part a "closest replacement"? ...
and if so, I assume I would I need to clip off the plastic connectors
and use wire nuts to connect to the existing wiring ... correct?

        What you need to do, seeing as you obviously don't have clue #
1 what you're doing, is call someone who DOES know, and pay them to
come and fix it.
