switch. If the wiring is good, the low limit thermostat
is defective, and either the diode or the switch is
also defective.
If the element heats during preheat, then stays off
until the temperature drops to about 130°F:
1. Check the diode and the cycling portion of the warmer
switch.
If the element does not cycle off:
1. Remove one wire from the low limit thermostat and
set the warmer switch to low. If the element cycles
after the drawer has warmed up, the low limit
thermostat is defective. If it does not, the warmer
switch is defective. It is also possible for a wire on
the neutral side of the element to be shorted to
chassis.
If the warmer drawer is slow preheating:
1. Normal preheat time is around 15 minutes with the
drawer empty. Check the low limit thermostat. If
the contacts are open, replace the thermostat.
If the warmer drawer heats, but the indicator light
does not glow:
1. Check the indicator light and the wiring to the
indicator light. (Note: The indicator light does not
cycle with the element.)
