I took the acess panel off today and turneed unit on and the buzzing was coming from a black plastic thing, and it became very hot in just a second.

Be smart and save copys to your hard drive for future needs.

Locate the item that is buzzing and post back. NOTE: turn off power while you are playing with the heater. 240 volts can kill you.

OK it's the transformer, any idea how much this part should cost or is that even the trouble

The part number is on the list. You will have to call around to get a price.

Other transformers can be used since many suppliers may not have the exact part number you need. You will have to check with a local supplier or on the net.

Just replaced my 24VAC transformer for around $20. Cut the power to the unit, take a picture or write down how its wired and take it to a heating specialty place. They can match it up with something pretty close. Make it easy on yourself and insist they give you a new transformer that has identical spade connectors.

BTW they do get a little warm (not too warm to touch) and buzz a little, so don't be too surprised when the new one does this some.
