Default Help Please? Modifying hot air popper

Help! I have gone through 3 motors, and still don't have a working
coffee roaster from a hot air popper.
I am electrically retarded, but I am still kicking
I now have a no name hot air popper, and I have figured out how to
power the Motor Heater and
subsequently the motor, but I cannot get the main heater to work either
on or off the switch.
It does work when wired directly, so that is not the issue. I need an
EXPLICIT set of directions on
which set of wires go where. I have spent the last three weeks reading
and rereading every website that
I can find, scrutinizing pictures, and still no dice. Any help out
there?

The hot air popper is a toastmaster, and as far as I can tell, is
*exactly* the same as every other popcorn popper I have opened. It has
a switch that used to control everything, and this is the switch I
would like to control only the main heater.

What I am looking for is a description of where the wire go as they
enter ther popper. IE: One side of the 110VAC goes to a wire nut
joining it to a wire leading to one side of the resistors/rectifiers on
the motor. The other side of the 110VAC goes to........
This is the part I need the help. I know the other side of the 110 has
to go through the motor heater on the way to the motor, but I am
clueless other than that.
Any help out there?
