Yes, do what Bruce said, I forgot that—the overtemp switches on both boilers. You can check the input side of that too for 120V. If the red button seems to break down when you push it, replace the switch—it does get brittle and fall apart inside (and makes a marvelous spark when you don’t know this and try to push it with a big metal paper clip).
The diagram you got—was it hand drawn? If so, there is one wire on there that is still somewhat ambiguous. I can look at my new Giemme and see how it compares to you yours if you send a picture or a list of what you have where.
