Some basic HELP PLEASE! I'm getting crazy!

Some basic HELP PLEASE! I’m getting crazy!
Trying to build a variable speed motor control. 12v dc. (Automobile power window motor.)
Purchased a HiLetgo 12V-40V 10A PWM DC Motor Speed Controller CVT Speed Switch Module.
It worked for a while, then it said SNAP, then quit working.
I saw a video of a guy that made his own controller. ( Now I can’t find it. )
Luckily I did sketch the layout I think he made. Enclosed. ( I hope! )
I have been beating my head against the wall. Searching for the parts he recommends.
I’m looking for some CTC 1351 transistors WITH heat sinks that fits the unit on a breadboard.
Also a 250K variable resistor.
I am a complete moron when it comes to electronics.
If some kind person could help find me the components that I’m looking for, I would be forever grateful.
I am on kind of a limited budget, I don’t think I can afford one of the high price, heavy duty controllers.
Also if I fry it I believe it would be fairly to swap out a new transistor.
I’m also am open to any suggestions for another way.
But PLEASE REMEMBER I need details, again I am a electronics moron.
Thank You all in advanced.

Hello @ProStreet,

You can buy your resistor here: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14623

Some heatsinks are here: https://www.sparkfun.com/search/results?term=heat%20sink
Size depends on your power.

Regarding transistors, read this here: https://www.quora.com/Is-a-CTC-transistor-the-same-as-a-KTD-transistor-I-want-a-CTC-1351-but-can-t-find-it-what-will-do-the-same-thing

You BY FAR you has given me very detailed information than I have received by anyone, on any forum, anywhere.
VERY informative.
THANK YOU
Jerome
