Component Testing; Lf (Dual) Element; Rr (Dual) Element - KitchenAid KECC508MBL Technical Education

When testing any of the components, be sure
to observe the following conditions:
• Disconnect the power to the cooktop before
removing the unit from its mounting location.
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

LF (DUAL) ELEMENT

Refer to page 4-3 for the procedure for servic-
ing an element and limiter.
1. Disconnect power to the cooktop.
2. Disconnect the main wiring harness con-
nectors from the element and limiter termi-
nals.
3. Set the ohmmeter to the R x 1 scale.
4. Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the
following terminals. The meter should in-
dicate as shown:
Element terminals 1 & 2 = 35 to 46 Ω.
Element terminals 2 & 3 = 52 to 64 Ω.
Limiter terminals 2 & 4 = 0 Ω.
