Put the VOM (but really a "wiggy" would be my choice) across the leads 5 and 6 only, not at all to ground. Any reading other than 230v (approx) means the circuit is not being completed. This is the 1st place to start. I can walk you through the rest after you do this and tell me how much, if any, voltage you have.
OK, I get .01V on I, .003V on II and .000V on III (5 and 6)

Yet I get continuity between those two terminals with the leads disconnected.

Historically, III worked the best and I haven't touched it. I didn't work at all and welded the terminal back to the coils inside. II worked weakly and I did the same. After I fixed I, I connected it up (the raw element), laid it on II and I and III worked beautifully.

After working on II, nothing works.
