    Bucc, with that heavy gage wire in the stat, a normal Ohm meter will not show any noticeable resistance change from one end to the other, I suspect. We need an “electrical guy” here… I think that it’s all about heavy current flow.

    Electrician or Magician may have helped!
    I’m not ever sure if the rheostat was suppose
    to be on the “hot” or “negative” side of the battery,
    but it seems to work the same either way.

    Prepare to be boarded!
